*In the first century was the spirit of God working with Jesus when he chose Judas Iscariot to serve as an apostle?

*Was the spirit of God working with the disciples who performed many miracles only to turn their backs on Jesus whose name they used to perform miracles?

*Was the spirit of God working with the Elders when many brothers they taught and baptized turned out to be AntiChrists?

Jehovah's Witnesses aren't different from their first century counterpart so it's you who is expecting what is not possible:

Now listen again

"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 ( emphasis mine) in advance of surgery—​are not acceptable for Christians. ​—Deuteronomy 15:23.

It said concerning the area of transfusions, Storing your blood in advance of surgery is not acceptable for Christians, Yes or no?

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● A doctor said that prior to surgery a patient could have some blood withdrawn and stored, in the event that a transfusion is needed during surgery.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So, if medical personnel suggest that a Christian permit some of his blood to be withdrawn and deposited in a blood bank for later transfusion purposes, the Christian is not without guidance from the Bible as to the proper course.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.

(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?
I asked AI does the last question support storing blood for future transfusion?


No, the concluding question does not support storage of blood for future medical use (such as in a blood bank for later transfusion). Here’s why, based strictly on the text you provided:

The argument first cites Deuteronomy 12:24, which instructs that blood removed from an animal must be poured out on the ground as water. The point emphasized is that this act shows the blood is for God alone, not to sustain any earthly creature’s life.

It then references the New Testament command for Christians to “abstain from blood” (Acts 15:20, 28-29).

The concluding rhetorical question

(“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?”)
is not neutral or permissive. It is a challenge. It implies that storing blood in a bank directly contradicts the biblical principles just mentioned: Instead of being poured out (returned to God), the blood is preserved for human medical use.
Instead of abstaining from blood
, the person is actively participating in its collection, storage, and potential reuse.

In other words, the question is designed to highlight an inconsistency with the cited scriptures. It does not endorse, permit, or support blood storage for transfusion; it argues that such storage would be incompatible with the command to treat blood as sacred and to abstain from it.

This is a classic rhetorical device used in certain religious interpretations of the blood prohibition (common in Jehovah’s Witness literature) to reject both donating and accepting stored blood.

The text as a whole is therefore against the practice of blood banking for medical purposes, not in favor of it.

Gerrit Lösch stated........


Therefore, after much prayer and consideration of the Scriptures, the Governing Body has decided to clarify our position on the use of a patients own blood in medical and surgical care. The clarification is this: Each Christian must decide for himself how his own blood will be used in all medical and surgical care.”
VS

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?
Conclusion......

In short: The concluding question (older view) opposed storage in a blood bank, even for oneself.


Lösch’s clarification now allows each individual to decide on storage and reuse of their own blood.

It is not clarification, it is a change grin cheesy cheesy cheesy

The strive to be PIMI(physical and mentally agreeable 100% without question) is the goal.

It cuts across religions though but seems JW is the worse on having a different thought, even if it's just having a different thought on one doctrine due to strong repercussions

Christianity is not just a religion but an assignment/job that requires absolute loyalty:
“If anyone wants to come after me, let him disown himself and pick up his torture stake day after day and keep following me" Luke 9:23
So when Jesus says disown yourself he wasn't talking about food, clothing and shelter that you enjoy but how to do the work God gave to Jesus.
The Governing Body also determines how all members of Jehovah's Witnesses go about the preaching and teaching work from what message we are to preach, how to go about the preaching, where and when to preach and when to vacate any place.
That's what requires our 100% loyalty not what they say about Bible characters that they never live with!

And it shows in most of their defense of changes made since inception.
Rather than accept there's a change, they pursue rigmarole explanation and justification.
Imagine someone defending all their religious and doctrinal changes from inception of the religion till now.
As members they can't be a step ahead and be proven right. They only try to prove what someone else says as right.
But most non-members they preach to and discuss with as we as those within JW who are PIMO become steps ahead in some doctrines and are thus called apostates or disfellowed members.

Even twins have different thoughts and question things.

What do one make of them?
As at the time they made their independent thought
They are rebels, apostates, shunned, disfellowed,
Now the governing body becomes a follower rather than leading now aligns with them?

They can now be welcomed back into the fold? undecided


I believe an insight from a God will be way ahead of the masses, and most followers or rest of the world.

If the so called "worldly" and "condemned" people worshipping a different god become right both years and decade ahead of the "chosen people" who couldn't come up with such, then sth might be wrong with the thought process of such "chosen people" as well as their leaders.

I am sorry to say, like I said before such PIMI persons are not more than robots in discuss otherwise, they will be a step ahead on an aspect at least before any pronouncement.

Followers of Christ need not reject what he says whether it's ok by them or not, whether they understood or not.
What they need to do is follow as long as they are convinced that Jesus is the Christ then they continue waiting for a new light.

For instance when Jesus first sent his disciples out to go and preach back then he commanded them:

Go! Look! I am sending you out as lambs in among wolves. Do not carry a money bag or a food pouch or sandals, and do not greet anyone along the road" Luke 10:3-4

Some of his disciples felt something is wrong and when the opportunity came for them to abandon him they did with other complainers. John 6:66

Later the same Jesus commanded them saying:

“But now let the one who has a money bag take it, likewise a food pouch, and let the one who has no sword sell his outer garment and buy one." Luke 22:35-36

Abeg if you were alive back then will you still view Jesus as the Christ when he changed the command that he made at first?

Ọmọ we are talking about FAITHFUL PEOPLE not the faithless we don't look at changes or adjustments in directions rather we focus on fulfillment of prophecies just as our first century brothers stick to Jesus due to prophecies he was fulfilling!🙂

When Moses led the Israelites out from Egypt God was going ahead of the camp as pillar of cloud by day but pillar of light by night. Exodus 13:21

Abeg if you were with the camp back then and you see the pillar leading the whole assembly towards the sea where there is no way forward will you still trust the God that's leading the camp?

Well just as faithless people today are doing most Israelites started accusing Moses forgetting that even Moses was trusting the pillar that led them to the red sea.

You all know the story so we are not the sort that shrinks back with complaints {Hebrews 10:38} because we have learned from what befell them back then!

Now these things happened to them as examples, and they were written for a warning to us upon whom the ends of the systems of things have come. 1Corinthans 10:11

So if anyone feels there is no group of anointed men leading God's people to whom they should be obedient that's your own cup of coffee! Hebrews 13:7🙂

Janosky:

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 ?

The strive to be PIMI(physical and mentally agreeable 100% without question) is the goal.

It cuts across religions though but seems JW is the worse on having a different thought, even if it's just having a different thought on one doctrine due to strong repercussions
(fear factor branded words and actions).

closely followed by Deeper life(my opinion though)
Governing Body to the millions of Jehovah's witnesses under them:

1. You(Jehovah's witnesses) can give us your GODS benefits of doubt regarding what we teach whether sound or not sound, logical or not logical, reasonable or not reasonable. In fact Jehovah trust the Governing Body completely that is 100%. So you should.

2. We your Governing Body cannot give you(Jehovah's witnesses) any benefit of f doubt regarding what we teach whether sound or not sound, logical or not logical, reasonable or not reasonable. In fact, we your Governing body don't trust you and we always advise you not to trust your fellow brothers.

A Jehovah's witness:

Objection my GOD aka Governing Body....

Governing Body l: Objection sustained

Jehovah's witness: Psalms 146: 3 states.... Do not put your trust in prince's, Nor in a son of man, in whom there is no help. You are just a man like myself.

Governing Body: We are not mere men who tell lies or manipulate scriptures, we are your GODS as we rightly taught, our voice is the voice of Jesus and since Jesus is god. We are equally your GODS.

Should you spread this kind of scriptures Psalms 146:3 in the midst of the brothers'to undermine our AUTHORITY OVER YOU, we will kick you out of the organization

Jehovah's witness: I choose to remain PIMI.

Those who condemned the bears, trousers, noodles storage, Armageddon, education, etc way ahead of time before the governing body's reversal.
What do one make of them?
As at the time they made their independent thought
They are rebels, apostates, shunned, disfellowed,
Now the governing body becomes a follower rather than leading now aligns with them?

They can now be welcomed back into the fold? undecided


I believe an insight from a God will be way ahead of the masses, and most followers or rest of the world.

If the so called "worldly" and "condemned" people worshipping a different god become right both years and decade ahead of the "chosen people" who couldn't come up with such, then sth might be wrong with the thought process of such "chosen people" as well as their leaders.

I am sorry to say, like I said before such PIMI persons are not more than robots in discuss otherwise, they will be a step ahead on an aspect at least before any pronouncement.
Wetin make I add join? cheesy grin grin grin
