Scientifically, u are safer using blood alternative than blood by a far margin. But we are in Nigeria where a lot of things could go wrong, including delay to get the right treatment at the right time.

You people always forget the part where they where talking of animal blood


The Lord said to Moses, 2 “Speak to Aaron and his sons and to all the Israelites and say to them: ‘This is what the Lord has commanded: 3 Any Israelite who sacrifices an ox,[a] a lamb or a goat in the camp or outside of it 4 instead of bringing it to the entrance to the tent of meeting to present it as an offering to the Lord in front of the tabernacle of the Lord—that person shall be considered guilty of bloodshed; they have shed blood and must be cut off from their people. 5 This is so the Israelites will bring to the Lord the sacrifices they are now making in the open fields. They must bring them to the priest, that is, to the Lord, at the entrance to the tent of meeting and sacrifice them as fellowship offerings. 6 The priest is to splash the blood against the altar of the Lord at the entrance to the tent of meeting and burn the fat as an aroma pleasing to the Lord. 7 They must no longer offer any of their sacrifices to the goat idols[b] to whom they prostitute themselves. This is to be a lasting ordinance for them and for the generations to come.’

[b]8 “Say to them: ‘Any Israelite or any foreigner residing among them who offers a burnt offering or sacrifice 9 and does not bring it to the entrance to the tent of meeting to sacrifice it to the Lord must be cut off from the people of Israel.

10 “‘I will set my face against any Israelite or any foreigner residing among them who eats blood, and I will cut them off from the people. 11 For the life of a creature is in the blood, and I have given it to you to make atonement for yourselves on the altar; it is the blood that makes atonement for one’s life.[c] 12 Therefore I say to the Israelites, “None of you may eat blood, nor may any foreigner residing among you eat blood.”

13 “‘Any Israelite or any foreigner residing among you who hunts any animal or bird that may be eaten must drain out the blood and cover it with earth, 14 because the life of every creature is its blood. That is why I have said to the Israelites, “You must not eat the blood of any creature, because the life of every creature is its blood; anyone who eats it must be cut off.”[/b]

PLEASE JWS WHY DO YOU PEOPLE LEAVE OUT THE VERSES BEFORE AND AFTER THIS PARTICULAR VERSE? OR NA SIN TO INCLUDE THE VERSES WHERE THEY TALK ABOUT THE ANIMALS BEING SACRIFICED? OR YOU PEOPLE DON'T WANT US TO KNOW THAT IT WAS ABOUT ANIMALS TO BE USED AS SACRIFICE.

One less person to knock on stranger's doors to tell them about their imaginary friend

MUSACALLY:

My dear Brother its not that we leave out the verses before and after, we do that because we want to bring out the points from them as it is normal.
The truth the Bible is strict with regards the use of blood of any creature. It is clear that we should not eat blood because there is Life in it

IT SAYS EATING BLOOD. HOW DOES EATING BLOOD BECOMES TRANSFUSING BLOOD.

softwerk:


Madam, I'm genuinely sad and share in your grief over this loss but I believe that ones Christian convictions should not lead to an avoidable early grave. Imagine the deep sorrow she has committed her loved ones to forever. This is no different from euthanasia (mercy killing). How do you defend that?!

I know Witnesses believe that the blood (Red Blood Cells) contains the life force of a man hence should NOT be transfused to another. But how about the semen (Sperm Cells)?

Why did she not go abroad to more advanced hospitals that have substitutes for blood such as Polyheme!

MUSACALLY:

If a doctor told you not to drink alcohol, would you inject it into your body? Of course not! In the same way, the command not to eat or drink blood means that we would not accept a blood transfusion.

MUSACALLY:

You are the foolish one
She is just being faithful to Gods word

switplum:

Elementary biology should have taught you that if you can't ingest food orally, intravenous fluid called drip can be used to pass liquid food into your system to sustain you.

The bible warns christians not to eat the blood of animals they kill. The Bible never said desist from blood transfusion.

my people perish for lack of knowledge.

otemanuduno , what do u ve to say about this

femeritus:


Leviticus 17.10-12 says every sort of blood. And eating is the same as passing it through your veins.

Hairyrapunzel:


It never said any sort of blood the bible was specific an ox which is intended for sacrifice. Anything Eating must go through the mouth. Passing something through your vein doesnt mean you're eating that thick. Stop giving us watchtower toxic

femeritus:


Now compare that with uncountable number of people who accepted transfusion and still died and you'll see this noise is unnecessary. It was a personal choice she made based on her Bible trained conscience. Jesus Christ said he that loses his life for his sake will save it. She made an informed and a right choice.

Bloodless surgery is now the best and safest surgery and widely accepted among informed surgeons.

If you doctor asked you not you not to take alcohol that doesn't mean that same doctor will not use alcohol to cure you if it is necessary.
