MrEar: ONLY educated people make use of the best educated lawyers and doctors. After all,JW's are very educated & can consult competent Jprofessionals,JWs & non JW's. Proof we are very knowledgeable. ![]() |
Courz: ![]() Your conjectures no get any evidence. Medical professionals & their research journals continue to laud JW's for contributing to medical advancements to achieve competence in bloodless medical practice, you are WAILING on this forum as If we owe you something. Go and consult medical research journals & see the more increasing numbers of non witnesses now embracing bloodless treatment options the medical sciences is lauding JW's for. Oga, Sie ebah puo.. ![]() |
Courz:You have no right to determine nor dictate whom or what JW's follow. No be your business at all. Your ONLY right is WAILING. Talk is cheap. If you love yourself ,this screenshot is giving you a message. ![]()

Floww23:3. Medical Procedures Involving Blood There are medical procedures that make use of a patient’s own blood. Some of these—such as a person donating blood or having his own blood stored in advance of surgery—are not acceptable for Christians.—Deuteronomy 15:23. However, other procedures may not be objectionable. These include blood tests, hemodialysis, hemodilution, or the use of a cell-salvage or heart-lung bypass machine. Each Christian must decide for himself how his own blood will be handled in the course of a procedure, medical test, or current therapy. Each doctor may perform these procedures slightly differently. So before accepting any surgical procedure, medical test, or therapy, a Christian needs to find out exactly how his own blood will be handled." Why did you REMOVE this 2nd paragraph ? Floww23,na so you be? ![]() |
MaxInDHouse:Na so |
achorladey: Of course, each Christian should weigh what is involved in the use of these and similar devices. He could consider whether he views the blood involved to be blood that clearly has left his body and so should be disposed of or as blood that, basically, is still part of his circulatory system. (Deut. 12:16) Then he can make a decision that will leave him with a clear conscience before God.—1 Pet. 3:16". Watchtower,June 15,1978. The same conclusion in 1978 & 2000 Watchtower editions. Oga, Why is JW's matter giving you sleepless nights ? Abeg ,check your B.P. Just a friendly advice. ![]()

Maximus692:Them no like Tirenchi wey dem see for 1978 Watchtower which the Update #2 broadcast repeated. Jehovah's organization sabi well well. |
Floww23:w78 6/15 pp. 29-31 Questions From Readers ● A doctor said that prior to surgery a patient could have some blood withdrawn and stored, in the event that a transfusion is needed during surgery. How should a Christian view such use of his own blood? From the standpoint of those in the medical field, this procedure may seem quite practical. There are grave dangers in accepting a transfusion of someone else’s blood. Seemingly fewer risks are involved if a person is given a transfusion of his own blood. So there is a trend among doctors to use the procedure called “autologous transfusion.” This involves drawing off the patient’s own blood and “banking” or storing it for transfusion purposes when necessary. If not needed by the donor, the blood may be used for other patients. So, if medical personnel suggest that a Christian permit some of his blood to be withdrawn and deposited in a blood bank for later transfusion purposes, the Christian is not without guidance from the Bible as to the proper course. He can mention that ancient Israelites were told that removed blood was to be ‘poured out on the ground as water,’ to show that it was for God and not to sustain the life of some earthly creature. (Deut. 12:24) And he can refer to the pointed command that Christians ‘abstain from blood.’ In view of this, how could he allow his blood to be collected in a blood bank for later transfusion into himself or another person? [/b] ● What about a device such as a heart-lung pump or a dialysis (artificial kidney) machine? Might a Christian use such? There are Christian witnesses of Jehovah who, with a good conscience, have allowed these devices to be used, provided that the machines were primed with a nonblood fluid, such as Ringer’s lactate solution. When this sort of device is operating, the patient’s blood flows from a blood vessel through tubing and the machine (where it is pumped, oxygenated and/or filtered) and then flows back into his circulatory system. The machine temporarily performs some of the functions normally handled by the patient’s own organs. Some Christians have conscientiously reasoned that the blood is flowing continuously and that the external circuit might be viewed as an extension of the circulatory system. They have considered it comparable to a piece of tubing that might be implanted in the body to shunt blood around a blockage in a vessel. Of course, each Christian should weigh what is involved in the use of these and similar devices. He could consider whether he views the blood involved to be blood that clearly has left his body and so should be disposed of or as blood that, basically, is still part of his circulatory system. (Deut. 12:16) Then he can make a decision that will leave him with a clear conscience before God.—1 Pet. 3:16". Watchtower,June 15,1978. If you have to relearn English to understand the bolded,pls do. The Enjoy Life did not discuss every procedure. Again,this Watchtower,discussed the storage procedure acceptable as well as non acceptable one which Enjoy Life publication refered to the same non acceptable procedure. What is the conclusion of the 1978 Watchtower ? "It's your personal decision" Make una Acholardey & Floww23 dey deceive una selves ![]() |
Floww23:In the "Enjoy Life book, the point of emphasis "Some of these......" Nah you go decide which one to accept or reject. The book did not discuss ALL procedures. The watchtower June 15,1978 article repeats the same counsel in the update #2... " It's your personal decision". |
Floww23:Matthew 15:13 & 1 Timothy 5:24, Jehovah will have His way & do His will at the appropriate time. |
Floww23:Take note of John 6:44, "no one comes to me unless my Father draws them". Who drew the ones in Rev 2:14-15 & Rev 3:9 into the congregation promoting false teachings & immorality? Most of them held positions of authority & their bad influence were pervasive. Then in John's day and now. Hovewer, Overseers are often appointed under the guidance of holy spirit. It doesn't mean we can't lose guard ,like Samuel . 2 Sam 6:6-7. Like most of the 7 congregations lose guard 1 Timothy 5:24 "Some people’s sins are obvious, preceding them to judgment, but the sins of others surface later". People with ulterior motives may attempt to sneak into positions of authority. Jehovah who sees the heart would always expose such & flush them out in unexpected ways and means . |
MrEar:You go wail tire , the children born of Jw parents will NEVER drop out of school or viable vocational training. ![]() |
The sky is large enough for every bird to thrive & fly. Our people too like gbege wey e no dey help anybody. Which doctor can function without professional input of his fellow health sector colleagues in the system? |
chimex38: ![]() Oga, no be fight. Just laugh & ease tension. |
MrEar:The privilege of service among Jehovah's people is a voluntary assignment, not do or die. Which JW you see wey him title nah "Elder" whatever? JW's are students of tertiary institutions in your country likewise some are students of IT/Tech , any viable legit vocation you can think of. These days viable skills/enterpreneurship experience is the way for JW's. Oga, no dey deceive yourself. ![]() |
chimex38:Is June 15 Watchtower of 1978 validation from others ? Some procedures that stores blood is still not ok for JW's to do. Informed consent is Paramount in medical issues. Abeg go & find out . Oga,go and rest. Shalom. ![]() |
MrEar:My fellow brothers & sisters , children of their parents dey study in tertiary institutions everywhere in your country. Pls go & verify. |
Floww23:The desire to please a Superior , would make someone to do the function of an Agent even when he no like that assignment. One of them got baptized & resigned from the spy work. He told his Superiors,he found the Truth & his conscience won't allow him to do the assignment anymore. |
Courz:Bad belle parade. Are really sure you're educated ? No evidence at all. ![]() |
Floww23:Thank you for saying your view. Did that publication you quoted explain EVERY treatment procedures in that category which JW's do not accept? Still, some of that treatment procedures may have variations that are ok for people who chose BT but not ok for JW's. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1FLgDE8DM8/ |
jmichael259:This is th same fact I have always emphasized. This link says it all. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1FLgDE8DM8/ |

Floww23:Moreover, what about Judas Iscariot? Long before he was born, Scriptural prophecies spoke of the Messiah’s betrayal. (Psalm 41:9; 55:12, 13) The Bible even says that “from the beginning” Jesus Christ knew who would betray him.—John 6:64. In the light of James 1:14-15, Judas was a victim of his own desires. It could have been anyone else. The guy too like money & fell..... ![]() |
Floww23:You have the right to air your view but your own Bible proves that some of those false brothers,false prophets had positions of authority. Can you look at your bible evidence , this scenario of 2 Peter 2:1-2 & 2 Timothy 3:5-6 played out in social media recently where christendom leaders were reported for adulterous,immorality with several celebrity women conned with false teaching & immoral relationships. That is how some people with authority in the early christian fold misused their positions to make disciples for themselves,not for Christ.) 👇 Acts 15:1,24 And certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brethren, and said, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved… Acts 20:30 Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. 2 Timothy 3:6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, 2 Peter 2:1,2 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you Would you be teaching the brethren in any congregation/ /church if you had no position of authority? Reason on it, pls . |
Floww23: Jude 1:4 & Galatians 2:4,2 Cor 11:26, spies (alias false brothers) no be today e start. They infiltrated,embed themselves in the midst of Jehovah's people in Paul's day. Option A;(according to Flow23 logic) Jesus disciples following christ were not of God,(example, 1 Cor 15:12 some disciples did not believe Christ resurrection) were false , not genuine because "weeds" existed side by side with them in their midst? Option B. The appointment of false brothers into positions of authority e that the Corinthian congregation is not of God,this invalidates the claim that such appointments from the Apostle's Council in Jerusalem were of God? 1Corinthians 13:9 "our knowledge is not perfect. 1 Sam 3:20 &1 Sam 6:6-7,Samuel made similar mistake before Jehovah corrected him. Is Flow23 learning something from those Bible verses & Matt 13:30 ? Even when our knowledge is not perfect, Matt 13:30, Jehovah's judgement is perfect . |
cyrusmillz:Leviticus 17:14,is man a creature ? Yes. The principle applies. Acts 15:28-29 ,does it say Abstain from oral action? If someone is doing oral action ,has he abstain from fornication? But the principle applies. The Bible verse ends with " Good health to you" |
TallNigerian:No Sir. The info is in our journals way back .... From time to time we published reminders (or updates) to keep JW's informed. That practice became public knowledge because of access to the internet & the newspapers assumed it's "doctrinal change". Our Bible based principle is still the same,Acts 15:28-29. . If you were a Jehovah's witness in the 1980's ,you would have known it's a personal decision to dictate how you want your physicians to handle your blood in the course of a medical procedure. |
Floww23: I have one question for you; Oga,which flaw wey God's people no get in your own Bible from Genesis to Revelation? Perfectionism = chronic dissatisfaction "Perfection syndrome, or maladaptive perfectionism, is the relentless, unrealistic pursuit of flawlessness, often driven by fear of failure and leading to burnout, anxiety, and procrastination. It causes individuals to set impossibly high standards, resulting in chronic dissatisfaction" Have a great day. |
Floww23:Oga, who appointed Saul as king of Israel ? What happened to him later? Who appointed Uzziah as king? What happened later? God dey appoint people wey later do iniquity ,yet you want GB to appoint flawless people. Guy, you want perfection wey no exist any where on this planet. I dorf my hat for you . ![]() |
