I don't know what you did to be disfellowshiped Mr. but I'm convinced that it is for your own good and for the good of the organization. One bad fruit as you know can corrupt the others. A time has been given to you by Jehovah to reflect and feel remorse and return to him. Have a blessed day. 2 Likes |

JMAN05: Act15:29 "You must abstain from eating food offered to idols, from consuming blood or the meat of strangled animals, and from sexual immorality. If you do this, you will do well. Farewell." My goodness!!! how does this verse relate to refusing blood transfusion ![]() read the whole chapter from verse 1, so you can understand better. Act 15:1 certain men came down from Judea and taught the brethren, “Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved.” Act 15:2 Therefore, when Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and dispute with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas and certain others of them should go up to Jerusalem, to the apostles and elders, about this question. Act 15:3 So, being sent on their way by the church, they passed through Phoenicia and Samaria, describing the conversion of the Gentiles; and they caused great joy to all the brethren. Act 15:4 And when they had come to Jerusalem, they were received by the church and the apostles and the elders; and they reported all things that God had done with them. Act 15:5 But some of the sect of the Pharisees who believed rose up, saying, “It is necessary to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.” Act 15:6 Now the apostles and elders came together to consider this matter. Act 15:7 And when there had been much dispute, Peter rose up and said to them: “Men and brethren, you know that a good while ago God chose among us, that by my mouth the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel and believe. Act 15:8 “So God, who knows the heart, acknowledged them by giving them the Holy Spirit, just as He did to us, Act 15:9 “and made no distinction between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith. Act 15:10 “Now therefore, why do you test God by putting a yoke on the neck of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear? Act 15:11 “But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ [fn] we shall be saved in the same manner as they.” Act 15:12 Then all the multitude kept silent and listened to Barnabas and Paul declaring how many miracles and wonders God had worked through them among the Gentiles. Act 15:13 And after they had become silent, James answered, saying, “Men and brethren, listen to me: Act 15:14 “Simon has declared how God at the first visited the Gentiles to take out of them a people for His name. Act 15:15 “And with this the words of the prophets agree, just as it is written: Act 15:16 ‘After this I will return And will rebuild the tabernacle of David, which has fallen down; I will rebuild its ruins, And I will set it up; Act 15:17 So that the rest of mankind may seek the LORD, Even all the Gentiles who are called by My name, Says the LORD who does all these things.’ [fn] Act 15:18 “Known to God from eternity are all His works. [fn] Act 15:19 “Therefore I judge that we should not trouble those from among the Gentiles who are turning to God, Act 15:20 “but that we write to them to abstain from things polluted by idols, from sexual immorality, [fn] from things strangled, and from blood. Act 15:21 “For Moses has had throughout many generations those who preach him in every city, being read in the synagogues every Sabbath.” Act 15:22 Then it pleased the apostles and elders, with the whole church, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas, namely, Judas who was also named Barsabas, [fn] and Silas, leading men among the brethren. Act 15:23 They wrote this letter by them: The apostles, the elders, and the brethren, To the brethren who are of the Gentiles in Antioch, Syria, and Cilicia: Greetings. Act 15:24 Since we have heard that some who went out from us have troubled you with words, unsettling your souls, saying, “ You must be circumcised and keep the law” [fn] —to whom we gave no such commandment— Act 15:25 it seemed good to us, being assembled with one accord, to send chosen men to you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul, Act 15:26 men who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Act 15:27 We have therefore sent Judas and Silas, who will also report the same things by word of mouth. Act 15:28 For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things: Act 15:29 that you abstain from things offered to idols, from blood, from things strangled, and from sexual immorality. [fn] If you keep yourselves from these, you will do well. Farewell. Act 15:30 So when they were sent off, they came to Antioch; and when they had gathered the multitude together, they delivered the letter. Act 15:31 When they had read it, they rejoiced over its encouragement. *modified* Why is JMAN05 not responding to this. how does eating or consuming blood relate to refusing blood transfusion when one is sick. My brother, this pure doctrine and dogma, its outrightly lying against the Bible and deceiving innocent people. You should as well stop taking any form of medical treatment. Open your eyes, and stop allowing anyone to interpret the bible for you. James 1:5 " if any of you lack wisdom let him ask of God........" not even the elders in your org. |

azaino: KJV That ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well. Am just wondering why I have to explain. If for eg, your doctor tells you to abstain from alcohol, do you think he expects you to inject it through your veins instead? Or when it says abstain from fornication, does it mean you should go oral instead? What is ur point exactly? 1 Like |

[color=#000099][/color] Music has been described as a pleasant sound, so if a sound is unpleasant it's tantamount to noise. It's impossible for someone who knows nothing about my family to compose lyrics that's meaningful and worthy regarding my family. Rather such a stranger will be making mistakes and sometimes grievous ones at times.It's OK for me to dance and laugh with others in gathering to a kind of music that's modest and moderate in lyrics than to listen to someone unknowingly insulting my family thinking he/she is singing to the pleasure of my family so it will become unpleasant to me even an insult! |

When Israelites were in Babylonian bondage the Babylonians would call them out and demand that they sing the songs of praises used in praising the God of Israel. Why? It's because every nation sings SUPPOSEDLY praises to God in their ignorance and Israelites aren't pleased with such erroneous lyrics for their own God! So that's why Israelites daughters who ONLY knew the sweet melodies from prophets were weeping by the rivers of Babylon as it's unthinkable on their part to sing Jehovah's praises in a strange land! You're all welcome to join US in singing praises to Jehovah the true God but as for the erroneous lyrics composed by those who knew nothing about our God we'll leave you to call it whatever you wish! God bless you. |

For all JW here, its advisable and simple enough to direct any who is really serious to know who we are to our unique website jw.org. Like Jesus, he didn't waste his energy disproving incomplete info or lies against him. He said" Wisdom is proved righteous by its works". Focus on your preaching and disciple making work dear brothers. Soon will go all opposers and Satan's world. 1 Like |

todaynewsreview:Don't mind the JWs, in fact you're doing the work of the Lord as you're exposing falsehood on NL religion section. I wonder why you didn't add the pictures of a renown JW secular musician performing for nude audience. ![]() "Fantasticism is worse than terrorism" i hope you're not one of those claiming Christians because the young Nazarene called Jesus Christ claims to be the One and Only source to divine approval. John 3:16-18 He condemned all religious groups not in conformity with His teachings. John 15:1-7 He strictly prohibited His followers from taking up arms but His utterances is clear evidence that those not with Him are doomed. Therefore i suppose He's a HARMLESS fanatic just like the modern day Jehovah's Witnesses. ![]() ![]() ![]() |
