Someone showed me this article from the watchtower written by a missionary serving in South Africa in the 1950s. Watchtower W54 6/1 - The mind of the African. ''The New World organization, thanks to Jehovah, is provided with the “weapons of the light” and has the only successful program for renovating the mind and clothing its subjects with a changed personality conformed to Christ Jesus, the Head. Secular education, admittedly, has failed to inculcate love. False religion, likewise, has failed to teach and follow true Christian principles, and the African has not been deeply impressed by what is so often hypocritical and partial. True religion, which does not make distinctions but which operates on the basis of love and abounds in the “fruitage of the spirit,” wins his approval, respect, sympathy and co-operation. The African mind has one obvious characteristic: it is childish and imitative. The visits of African circuit servants are doing much to set a good example. What could help much would be for African brothers to mix socially with the European brothers. This is ruled out by the strict segregation arrangements in South Africa.'' |

Origamist: thank you so much, the problem with people here is not finding out information on their own. While in the university we carried out a research on bloodless medicine and surgery, I asked a medical doctor which will he prefer blood transfusion or bloodless surgery if it was his child his answer?, "I will never infuse blood on anyone I love ". Bloodless surgery is on the increase cos the patient heals faster and better. on the second note if you claim to be a Christian but you don't apply Bible principles you're worse than a person without faith cos the Bible at acts chap 15:20,28,29 specifically mentioned abstaining from blood. why would I now go contrary to what I preach just to get life in this dying system of things and lose the prospect of everlasting life wether on earth or in heaven? lastly Jehovah sent his precious son Jesus Christ to come and die for my sins so as to redeem me, if it means I'll die so as to gain their approval I'll die than accepting blood transfusion. 2 Likes |

Sexy20: Exaggerated and/or embellished story. Never believe all gossips even if they are from close friends. They aren't always true or entirely true. A Reasonable and open-minded person would investigate to verify the authenticity of any information, not believe any piece that comes her way. |

andycom: I’m just sorry for those who fail to understand a simple fact. Well most people just call themselves Christians but cannot live up to it. They do much love the things of the world instead of seeing the bigger picture. The Bible says abstain from blood.....ur brains should tell u it means u should abstain from it in all forms be it through ur mouth or injecting into ur body....guys please ask yourself this question “how important is it for u to obey God?” If it’s not important then u all can say blood transfusion is good. But I’ll rather obey God whom I trust will give me eternal life here on earth or in heaven. The Bible doesn’t lie Acts 15:29 tells us to abstain from blood........then at the end it says GOOD HEALTH TO YOU.... sometimes because people do things or mayb it sounds right to you doesn’t mean it’s right. Check what God thinks about it through the Bible n draw ur conclusion. God knows all things and he’s the wisest. The issue about blood have been settled even before science brought about blood transfusion....even the Bible knows there will be health complications and also based on the emphasis the the life of an animal and man is in its blood so it’s so sacred to be toiled with. 2 Likes |

The only thing you need to know is Christ came to die for the world and He prophesied he will build His church (not a denomination owned by an earthly founder) in matt 16:15-17. The prophesy came to be in Acts 2. Be a part of that church, by being baptised into the body of Christ after believing Christ is the son of God and repenting of your sins. Rom 16:16 - The CHURCHES of CHRIST greet you |
