hmmmm !!!

from wat I've been reading, most pple want to just follow...dat we should not eat d blood from animals. u would agree wt me dat eating blood nd transfusing it via Ur veins is d same... just like taking drugs in tablet through Ur mouth has d same effect as taking d oral drugs via Ur veins.

now all the bible portions I've seen here... Lev 7:26, Lev 17:11-14, Acts 15:25-29 etc are written down FOR US TO KNOW HOW GOD VIEWS D BLOOD OF HIS CREATURES ( animals nd by extension humans). we would all agree dat BLOOD is sacred nd d life of an animal is in its blood.

I respect the stand of JW on this...

MUSACALLY:

Acts 15:28-29 For the holy spirit+ and we ourselves have favored adding no further burden to you except these necessary things: 29 to keep abstaining from things sacrificed to idols,+ from blood,+ from what is strangled,*+ and from sexual immorality.*+ If you carefully keep yourselves from these things, you will prosper. Good health to you!”.
Deuteronomy 12:23
23 Just be firmly resolved not to eat the blood, because the blood is the life, and you must not eat the life with the flesh.

Hairyrapunzel:


Gen9:4 Then God blessed Noah and his sons, saying to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the earth. 2 The fear and dread of you will fall on all the beasts of the earth, and on all the birds in the sky, on every creature that moves along the ground, and on all the fish in the sea; they are given into your hands. 3 Everything that lives and moves about will be food for you. Just as I gave you the green plants, I now give you everything.

4 “But you must not eat meat that has its lifeblood still in it. 5 And for your lifeblood I will surely demand an accounting. I will demand an accounting from every animal. And from each human being, too, I will demand an accounting for the life of another human being.

6 “Whoever sheds human blood,
by humans shall their blood be shed;
for in the image of God
has God made mankind.
from the above it is animals meant to be eaten so your hAve to kill the animal first. Infact you are not supposed to kill a human being so where will you even get the blood to eat? I still stand my ground your doctrine isn't biblical. You can't take one verse and say it it is blood transfusion it is referring to. The human being blood donor doesn't die hope you know and the human being is not meant to be eaten

MUSACALLY:


What is the end product of eating and transfucing, is it not to get into the body. Whatever will be of harm to you when you eat, it will be of harm to you when you transfuse

MUSACALLY:

If its not meant to be eaten why should it be transfused when its still the same thing.

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.

In a literal sense that Doctor Represent God and so we should wait for God to cure us

benzics:
How foolish can religious people be? The doctor should have transfused the blood by force, let's see what she would do after a successful childbirth

Modified: though it's wrong, but if you can die for your beliefs, you can as well kill for your beliefs.. So you are a real problem to the society...

That's how suicide bombers are formed, they believe dying and killing for their beliefs are right, I see no difference here

Hmmm Tell them ..

@switplum.tanx for being reasonable
@musucally,iv gone through your explanations,twas very logical n concise,straight to the point! Nothing more to be added .don't waste much of your time trying to explain the truth to those whose eyes are blinded to the truths from the bible! Not all are rightly disposed to everlasting life and Jehovah knows those who belongs to him! He will draw such honest hearted ones to his organization;enjoy ur day dearie.# proud jw# proud advocate for God's kingdom- the only solution to mankind's problem! # the tym left is greatly reduced#

Mynd44:
This is silly. Her church did not stop her from receiving blood, she herself did not allow it becuse of her faith. Her church did not force her to believe in those things, she did it because she felt it was right.

When will we learn to respect the faith of others and not try to pull them down? I guess bigotry is in a lot of us.

joinnow:
And what gurantee that if she take the blood she will live¿

Blood is not a nutrient and it doesn’t nourish the body. Blood is a carrier of oxygen and nutrients and a volume expander Eating blood and blood transfusion do not and will never have thesame effect. Blood transfusion is not synonymous with eating blood

wandyvirus:
I am actually very close to this girl in question. She did not die as a result of refusing to take blood. She didn't die at childbirth. She died from complications arising from Hepatitis and renal failure. Her baby was born still birth. Please we are mourning and all this false hood at this time is inhumane.

analice107:

Pls tell them. She was an adult and knew what she was doing. It was her choice to choose death over blood. Her Church leaders weren't in the Hospital with her monitoring if she'd take blood or not, she just did what she felt was right.

I for one, believe in divine health. I don't take any kind of medication, not because my Church preaches it. It's not a doctrine in my church. I personally considers myself grownup in Christ so shd exercise my right over the physical realm.
If i face death but remain resolute, why shd my Church be held accountable for my demise?

Christians are the problem in the body of Christ.

They refuse to grow so castigate what they refused to learn.

For the last time, folks, "Death is just a passage". We live on.

Death is only a tragedy for those who are without Christ. Am not afraid to die.

mhizcovy:


Pls don't quote me again.stick to whatever u belief,it can either make or mar u.i feel u subconsciously no the truth;if not now,maybe ul realize it in the nearest future if at all D's dying system of things will still stay a bit more.I do not engage in conversations with those who I perceive to be unreasonable.#the road to everlasting life have you found it?its rhetorical though.as for me,I'm more than sure iv found it.my only prayer is for me to remain on that path until my dying day.#voila!

Hairyrapunzel:


Your religion is thesame thing as ISIS AND BOKO HARAM SAME PRINCIPLES govern them. Road to everlasting life ko ni. No be my business you do what you believe in. Don't give me toxic stuff to sell your propaganda. Be saying what is not written in the bible. If is by choosing death instead of blood transfusion is your road to everlasting life then you are delusional. Keep dreaming.

hahn:


You obviously know nothing of JW. They are ready to ban her for the church if she had done that. It is a strict rule in JW. Many people have died from such stupidity

FlirtyKaren:
A Jehovah Witness church member named Peace Euodia has died after she had excess bleeding during childbirth and refused blood transfusion because of her faith.

According to Ossai Ovie:

RELIGIOUS DOCTRINE: Peace Euodia died of excess bleeding during child delivery, because Her church, Jehovah Witness Church does not permit her to accept blood transfusion.
Why will Jehovah Witness church not allow her to receive blood from someone because of church tradition.
Rest in PEACE EUDIA. COMBINED SOCIAL SCIENCE CLASS OF 2011 UNIVERSITY OF NIGERIA has lost a rare gem. We will mourn your death together with your family. Adieu

Madam/Bros Please there are Christians and there are Christians because we all believe in Jesus but when some people decide to add their own stupid thoughts to it, then it becomes a Problem..
Christians that don't accept tracts from other Christians and they claim to also believe in Jesus..

Abeg JW dey their own side.

Hairyrapunzel:


Your reasoning is faulty

Yes there is a guarantee blood transfusion may save life. Blook transfusion may improve outcome.

Did you read what you wrote!
It carries/contains nutrient that nourish the body......... it is not a nutrient!
