    Can a Christian lost eternal life if that Christian vow to lost it?

    My view based upon reading the Bible and praying while having Jesus as my friend for as long as I can remember and as my Savior for some years: NO. A born person can die, but that doen't make this person unborn again. A Christian is borned again and in the same way can't become unborn again...

    Need younger members

    Some considerations about this subject from a teenager, not living in the US, but in Norway. In the OP is said "very little church", but the building on the web page seems some larger than the church I (and my parents and grandparents) belong to, and the choir also seems about the same size...

    How long will Christians wait for the "second coming"

    This is opposite to what the Word quoted actually says: "... for THE SON OF MAN cometh at an hour ye THINK NOT"! The Son of Man "...which is taken up from you into heaven,..." (Acts, 1 11) "...shall so come in like manner as ye [Galilean men - His disiples] have seen him go into heaven "...

    Cool, double meaning words in other languages?

    In fact, the author Mr Alexander L(ange) Kielland (1849-1906) - today considered one ot the "great five" Norwegian authors in the last part of the 19th century - bases one of his books upon exact this double meaning. The book is issued 1883, it's title is (surprice..) "Gift", and the key points...

    Cool, double meaning words in other languages?

    And in Norwegian the word "koko" (sometimes also written ko-koo) is simulating the bird's "cuckoo" - and also means crazy (as an old tradition says one gets crazy of listening to long to this bird)... :D

    Some considerations about this theme from a Norwegian student who finalized his compulsory school this Wednesday (and had his oral exam Friday 16th, though only one of the questions here touching this subject): First a brief overview: As mentioned at Yahoo (link OP), Norway has an election...

    Norway to ban full-face Muslim veil in all schools

    At least when talking about Norway compusory education and some of these strict Muslims: Because they are not able themselves to fullfill the compulsory education requirements for their daugthers and thus their possible choices are to send their daughters in the local school or getting their...

    Norway to ban full-face Muslim veil in all schools

    Haven't you learned the meaning of the word "racism", or are you misusning this word by intention? I'm absolutely not in favour of being against brown and black immigrants only, but this has nothing to do with racism - execpt in the heads of those misusing this word for their own political...

    Whats your fav waterfall

    Like most living in the land of waterfalls (Norway), I have more than one favourite. One of them is https://media-cdn.tripadvisor.com/media/photo-s/05/47/30/ba/steinsdalsfossen-waterfall.jpg. Not high at all (about 165 feet/50 m), but one of very few in the world that one can walk behind and see...

    Hello from an aspie!

    Välkommen till CF (welcome to CF), LiljaLi. I'm Norwegian and only 16, so my English is worse - but I'm enjoying the forum :). Remember: 1. Having a diagnosis explaining a "strange behavior" makes that behavior less "strange" and more complely understandable. 2. If the LORD put a person...

    A large bowl of soup (more like thin stew) made from lamb meat, rutabaga, potatoes, carrots and some onion + a piece of "lefse" (http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/assets_c/2013/12/20131220-277114-cook-the-book-cream-potato-lefse-thumb-625xauto-372293.jpg , the unsweetened kinds are sometimes...

    I'm a BMW!!!!

    For sure! Christian means "Christ follower" and attending a church organization is not equal to follow Christ. Norwegians have a "state church" (not state church any more, but still 95 % dependent upon the Government) and knows a lot about what happen when "Christian" gets equal to "member of...

    Want to loose weight?

    As I mentioned: Not done in one day - for some hardcore cases not in one year eighter. Restoring a metabolism that has collapsed requires hard work, way more than the instruction "eat less/do more - and look for those brilliant results in a couple of weeks" In some hardcore cases it seems like...
