I recently learned a lot about the real Christianity, and after thinking about it for a while, I decided to believe in Jesus. This means that I now renounce the activities in my previous posts about my “Higher Self”. I have come to realize that it was most likely Satan who made that work, so as to keep me away from the True Lord, the Living God. Tough luck, Satan. ;)
Now, being spiritually reborn, I have started to learn a lot about Jesus’s work, and I’m also starting to change dramatically. I realized that I almost had made food a religion, so I decided I would allow myself to eat anything. Whether I want to eat it is a different matter, however, and I will most likely eat a lot of raw fruit and vegetables. I’m used to that, and it’s so easy to prepare. I am experimenting a little right now, but I haven’t eaten any meat yet. I don’t know if I will, but I might do it symbolically to prove that I’m not religious about it. I’m also stopping my current exercise schedule because I made it in coöperation with Satan, and I’m going to pray for a new one. In the meantime, I will simply exercise when I feel like it. I feel very free now that I have accepted Jesus as my savior and lord. :)
I’m planning on changing my name to symbolize the new course of my life, in the service of the Lord Jesus Christ. Unfortunately, the law forbids me to change my name in 9 more years. However, I can at any time revert my name to an older one, and I can at any time change the spelling, which means that I can indeed change my name into Victor Berrjod. Note the following reasons:
- The people who actually put any effort into calling me “Víkþórr” can, depending on the amount of fingers, be counted on one hand. :þ I think people would call me “Victor” no matter what I changed to.
- I chose “c” over “k” primarily for puristic reasons, but it’s also more aesthetic appealing to me. That, and most people I know are used to it.
- I’ll remove my middle name because I don’t define myself by the label of “vegetarian” any more.
- I modernized the last name because of practical reasons, but also since my first name will no longer be Old Norse. The present name of the farm I come from is Berrjod.
I plan on writing about my quest in getting to know Jesus on this blog from now on. I brought lots of books from Sokndal, so I’ll be busy reading. Good thing I did all my homework before going home! :) I’m also currently trying to get my hands on a printed version of the 1938 Norwegian Bible. It’s an awesome translation.
Peace be with you. :)

Fascinating! I must discuss this with you in person some day. If you’re having trouble finding the 1938 Bible, you can borrow mine.
