Are Jehovah Witnesses Right About Their Belief Against Blood Transfusion? by cornelboy(f): 6:37pm On Jan 17, 2022

God’s View of Blood
Blood is vital. Without it, none of us could live. As the Creator, God has the right to say how blood may be used. What has he said about blood? Can it be eaten or transfused? And how can you make good decisions on this matter?
1. What is Jehovah’s view of blood?Jehovah told his worshippers in Bible times: “The life of every sort of flesh is its blood.” (Leviticus 17:14) To Jehovah, blood represents life. Since life is a sacred, or holy, gift from God, blood is also sacred.
2. What use of blood does God forbid?Jehovah commanded his pre-Christian worshippers not to eat blood. (Read Genesis 9:4 and Leviticus 17:10.) He confirmed this command when the governing body instructed Christians to “keep abstaining . . . from blood.”​—Read Acts 15:28, 29.What does it mean to abstain from blood? If a doctor told you to abstain from alcohol, you would not drink it. But would you eat foods that contained it or have alcohol injected into your veins? Obviously not. Likewise, God’s command to abstain from blood means that we should not drink blood or eat meat that has not been bled. Nor should we eat any food to which blood has been added.
What about the medical use of blood? Some procedures clearly violate God’s law. These include the transfusion of whole blood or any of its main components​—red cells, white cells, platelets, and plasma. Other medical procedures may not be a clear-cut violation of God’s law. For example, some procedures involve the use of fractions of one of the main components of blood. Other procedures involve the use of a person’s own blood. When weighing these options, each of us must make a personal decision.​—Galatians 6:5.

Do not eat meat with blood is The Law.

The law was specific to eating it can not be extended to transfusion.

But any way, you have the ability to lose your life by refusal to take medication however the rightfullness of it is clearly beyond our jurisdiction.

So till Judgement Day then!

The JW belief in going against blood transfusion is similar to the Rastafarianist belief of not cutting any part of the body, which killed Bob Marley.

So how do you get to the bold part that i separated in green? How do you go from we should regard/respect life to medical use of blood, red blood cells and plasma. That's quite a big leap.

Let say God prohibited the drinking of alcohol for christians, don't you think taking it via any means like injecting it to your body would violate His order?

JWs take medications and use the hospital but they don't just take in blood in any form. If the only way was blood transfusion, they wouldn't go for it cos they believe that even if they die, they will resurrected and meet their loves one again in the future.
I'm not yet a JW. I haven't been baptized.

You can't say that it's a dogma, it's clearly a Bible concept.

While growing up, my perception bout
the JWs was bad cos of what i heard bout them. But it's not alright to judge base on other's opinion. Find out yourself.

Christianity today is not in pure form. Our beliefs are influenced by Roman Catholic dogmas.
But the JW strives to find and believe only the Truth.

1. God only said the life is in the blood.... he never said blood is sacred. undecided

2a. God’s law as given in the books of Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy applies only to those who have the blood of Jacob coursing through their veins - Deuteronomy 30 vs 15 - 20. You, a gentile have absolutely no right or claim to anything that is of that law, unless ofcourse the delusion is strong with you and you somehow believe God to be incompetent on some level. undecided

2b. Where God said "do nor eat", He meant "do not eat" - as in ingest and then pass out in faeces, the byproducts of eating human blood - so your claim that your blood transfusions are biblical is false, unless again, the delusion is strong with you and believe God to be incompetent on some level. undecided

2c. Jesus Christ, God's New Law extended to Gentiles,instead decreed that in the Kingdom of God, it isn't what you eat that makes you unclean, essentially making it OK for His followers to eat just about anything edible, including blood. So, unless again, the delusion is strong with you and you believe God to be incompetent on some level, you would.understand that the New Law is what your life ought to be based on as one who claims to belong to the Kingdom of God, and not of Canaaan. undecided

2d. God cannot contradict His own Truth, and no human has authority to change that which God has decreed in His Law. lipsrsealed

Knowing this, and considering the volatile relations between the Jews of the time and nonJews, what the disciples did in Acts 15, was prescribe some of the same laws God had given to the foreigners among His people of the Old Covenant, to help Christians living in the region coexist in peace with their majority Jewish neighbors of the time. undecided
To all the non-Jewish brothers in the city of Antioch and in the countries of Syria and Cilicia.
If you had infact read and digested Acts 15 by yourself, you would have maybe easily figured this out on your own. The ruling was clearly meant for those who lived in the indicated area, and not for those who lived outside of the zone. undecided

But since it seems the delusion is strong with you, you let others process what is written while you consume what is their vomit at the end of it all. undecided

Jesus Christ is God's Law in the Kingdom of God and the only agreement by which God has welcomed all of us Gentiles to Him through. If you chose instead to bow to other masters , then surely you know that what you cling to is not of God but of the prescriptions of men. undecided

The Law prohibiting alcohol is clearly proven by the bad and harmful effects of alcohol in distorting the lawful conduct of a person.

The law prohibiting eating of meat with blood is clearly meant to distinguish the man from his similar animal neighbours.

Thus, the use of blood for healing purposes, especially in the absence of an alternative, to preserve life, to my opinion does not violate or qualify as eating, exactly as using prohibited alcohol for treating wounds and cuts.

Leviticus 17:10,14
[10]“And if any native Israelite or foreigner living among you ��eats or drinks blood in any form��, I will turn against that person and cut him off from the community of your people,
[14]The life of every creature is in its blood. That is why I have said to the people of Israel, ��‘You must never eat or drink blood, for the life of any creature is in its blood.’�� So whoever consumes blood will be cut off from the community.


I just used alcohol as an example. The Bible never condemned or prohibited alcohol but teaches us not to abuse it. Getting drunk is sin. If consuming alcohol was a sin, Jesus wouldn't have turned water to wine. He would have told them that drinking is a sin.

About blood, if God said don't eat or drink it, injecting another person's blood it into our body would make no difference even if it's to save our life.

My point is JWs view on blood transfusion is an insight from the Bible not man-made doctrines.

Bro read the first post again and see the illustration. If God sternly prohibited the drinking or eating of blood in any form, don't you think it's logical to abstain from blood transfusion?
The reason I made the post is to show people that JWs practice of abstaining from blood transfusion is not evil but rather a biblical concept and they shouldn't condemn them.

JWs are not like Roman Catholics who distorted God's Truth, they brought many false doctrine like Trinity, immortal soul, hell fire et al.
Christian denominations (including your church) today are product of the Catholic church which is said to be the mother of all church.

Oga, your claim is NOT true.
There is no biblical nor scientific evidence for your claim.
First, there are several alternatives for blood transfusions, according to medical experts.
In this clime, most of our medical professionals already practice these alternative procedures.
Second, medical science frowns at the use of alcohol for treatment of cuts & wounds as does more harm than good.

They will always come to troll in your thread and they will not say anything tangible just to cause a distraction but after i've given all of them the INJECTION of truth they started avoiding me. Even when i comment on other threads they will stay clear of my mention.
Their intention isn't about passing any message but to stop you as a JW from commenting on what you know.
If you watch this people closely you will notice that they will not go after other religionists saying all sort of rubbish but once they're able to find out that you're one of Jehovah's Witnesses the battle begins! smiley

Re: Are Jehovah Witnesses Right About Their Belief Against Blood Transfusion? by Kobojunkie: 9:53pm On Jan 18, 2022
cornelboy:
1. Bro read the first post again and see the illustration. If God sternly prohibited the drinking or eating of blood in any form, don't you think it's logical to abstain from blood transfusion?

2. The reason I made the post is to show people that JWs practice of abstaining from blood transfusion is not evil but rather a biblical concept and they shouldn't condemn them.

3. JWs are not like Roman Catholics who distorted God's Truth, they brought many false doctrine like Trinity, immortal soul, hell fire et al.
Christian denominations (including your church) today are product of the Catholic church which is said to be the mother of all church.
1. Again, God never prohibited the eating or drinking of blood for those who are of the Kingdom of God - jews and Gentiles alike - so your argument is moot. undecided

2. The JW practice of abstaining from blood transfusion is indeed sinful and evil because this churches this rule of there's in the name of God when God never gave such laws or statues to anyone in the Kingdom of God to begin with. undecided

3. JW churches are exactly like the Catholic church since they both distort and weave their ideas to decieve people in the name of God. Like the Catholic church doctrines and traditions, all of the JW doctrines and traditions are of men, Lies, that have absolutely nothing to do with God's Truth. undecided

The doctrines you hold on to Trinity, hell fire immortal soul, where did you get them, were they not from the Catholic church?

JWs from time were studying the Bible to find God's Truth and their doctrines changed from time to time the more they study the Bible.
They don't don't participate in politics because they only believe in God's kingdom. Cos Jesus wasn't political too but warned that "his kingdom is not of this world. Did Jesus need to command us not to join politics before we know it is not right? Did the apostles in any form of politics? Or the Early church?
They don't also joined the military or engage in war. They are only devoted and loyal God's kingdom.

Thanks I accept that I'm silly. The giving of tithes and offerings, which people did God gave the law to Jews or gentiles?
If your answer is Jews, why do you(gentiles) pay tithes today?

The question is; as gentiles should we discard all God's rules in the Torah (OT)?

Kobojunkie:
I am a gentile just like you and so able to point out that silliness of your assertions in this. undecided
