Jehovah witness are making a grave mistake of implementing that law, more will die needless deaths because they're not allowed to accept other people's blood for transfusion

What you people need is enlightenment health personels are now grateful to JWs because we have helped them in seeking alternative solution because blood transfusion has a lot of hazards!🙂

Abstain from blood is the instruction so tell me how abstinence doesn't include taking it into the body system Sir!🙂

.. every scripture has context which u decided to cut out out of my comment
.. the instruction isnt just to stay away from blood …it clearly spoke on the context of eating the flesh of an animal and discarding the blood……... But its alright if lying will make you sleep well at night….. enjoy

All of a sudden, your blood is no longer "blood"?

That means what the prophets of Baal did is okay to you so far it's their own blood --1 Kings 18.

P.S: Just helping you to interpret the word in the way/line you have done it.

So am i throwing away my own blood?😀

Your bible verse also says " do not eat the blood of any creature".
Oga, Is man a creature?
Yes.

The analogy already stated is irrefutable.
Blood is sacred,in case you don't know .

Boy. There are many of us non witnesses who will not and never accept blood transfusion. It's a personal choice.and that's what the witnesses are told to do . they're shown the principles from the Scriptures then it's left to individuals to decide for themselves what to do or not to do.... recently I was wot a sick friend in one of the general hospitals..and behold those wen dem carry come to donate blood.all na kolo mental from their psychiatric ward..I no fit cry.so if I dey take blood transfusion,na dis kind blood wey dem no screen dem go give me ehn? Blood transfusion no be by force,leave the witnesses alone y'all.there are many who take blood and still die,some live but with many complicated issues.do ur own n leave people however they chose to do their own.

The state of a person's mental health doesn't decide the acceptability of his blood as a donor.
Some stable and mentally fit persons can fail a blood donation screening.

So Where's the lie in the original post?

Do you guys take blood transfusions before or not?
Is it the scriptures or the governing body that updated the policy on "no blood transfusions" to allow taking your own stored blood through transfusions, today?

The governing body interprets the scriptures for you because you guys have no brains or probably can't read the bible, right?
How did a symbol of life become the essence of life??
This isn't an update but a total change of blood doctrine invented by a drunkard trying not be part of the world
Best advise to you is store up ur blood in a blood bank.. You may need it in the future

Jehovah witnesses want their blood to be saved and use for them in case of emergency. They are not serious. If saved blood can't be used for someone else who needs the blood, it's useless. Do you know how many of their members that lost their lives because of this nonsense belief?

The issues with using another persons blood is more complicated than humans know.
A lot of people despite getting blood transfusions still died, a lot not getting transfussions survived.

Recently, many studies and researches have been digging deep into blood related issues and what the blood carries, and are finding mindblowing revelations with regards to what the blood contains.

Using someone's blood, you gat to be mindful of not just sexual transmitter disease, but also genetically transmitted illnesses like, high blood pressure, heart disease, cancer, degenarative bone diseases, etc. And also when you have someone else's blood in you, you carry some of their DNA and can now pass all these down to your unborn kids.
Hence a lot of doctors are diverting to alternatives to using another person's blood.

I can definitely tell from your statements that not only are you ignorant but also close-minded. How open-minded does one have to be to accepting the sociopathic ideologies presented in the life of mohmoh as anything else? 😒😒

2. All 3 are literally stories about the last 23 years of one man's life. What other kind of argument can there be if the story extensively speaks of how the man reasoned, lived and considered the world around him? 😒😒

3. The problem is that most of you have also never actually read the bible for yourselves. The entire books of the Torah and the Injeel, do not, address the life and times of one man but generations of a people over a period that spans over 2000 years. Note the difference! 😒😒

How do you find truth in the last 23 years of one man's life to compare to truth that was precipitated over a period of over 2000 and over numerous lives/generations? 😒😒

If my own blood will be safely kept out of my body and transfused back there is nothing wrong according to the scriptures but on no group will i accept blood from someone else.

No scripture support the bolded

yes, if that settles your curiosity yet it doesn't violate God's law. What is simply telling you a witness can go to an approved blood bank donor start keeping some pant of his own blood for use against critical emergency. There is always provisions but preferably don't transfuse it's now a choice for witnesses depending on the level of spiritual understanding maturity etc

The word of God is parables, abstain from blood doesn’t mean you can’t take meaningful transfusions, it means abstain from anything that is blood sucking, like ritual, persecution, and miming.
God spoke about blood consumption not blood transfusions in Medical needs.
