A Jehovah Witness church member named Peace Euodia has died after she had excess bleeding during childbirth and refused blood transfusion because of her faith.

According to Ossai Ovie:

RELIGIOUS DOCTRINE: Peace Euodia died of excess bleeding during child delivery, because Her church, Jehovah Witness Church does not permit her to accept blood transfusion.
Why will Jehovah Witness church not allow her to receive blood from someone because
of church tradition.
Rest in PEACE EUDIA. COMBINED SOCIAL SCIENCE CLASS OF 2011 UNIVERSITY OF NIGERIA has lost a rare gem. We will mourn your death together with your family. Adieu

This is silly. Her church did not stop her from receiving blood, she herself did not allow it becuse of her faith. Her church did not force her to believe in those things, she did it because she felt it was right.

When will we learn to respect the faith of others and not try to pull them down? I guess bigotry is in a lot of us.

Hmmm Tell them ..

faith gone wrong.rip pretty

Surprisingly the church allowed her to receive Semen from her husband that got her pregnant in the first place but NOT his blood to save her life?!

I'm not understanding this Ohh

How foolish can religious people be? The doctor should have transfused the blood by force, let's see what she would do after a successful childbirth

Modified: though it's wrong, but if you can die for your beliefs, you can as well kill for your beliefs.. So you are a real problem to the society...

That's how suicide bombers are formed, they believe dying and killing for their beliefs are right, I see no difference here

A serious example of what people say " die with what you believe in".

I don't know whether to classify it as a suicide. Dicey stuff.

You obviously know nothing of JW. They are ready to ban her for the church if she had done that. It is a strict rule in JW. Many people have died from such stupidity

Pls tell them. She was an adult and knew what she was doing. It was her choice to choose death over blood. Her Church leaders weren't in the Hospital with her monitoring if she'd take blood or not, she just did what she felt was right.

I for one, believe in divine health. I don't take any kind of medication, not because my Church preaches it. It's not a doctrine in my church. I personally considers myself grownup in Christ so shd exercise my right over the physical realm.
If i face death but remain resolute, why shd my Church be held accountable for my demise?

Christians are the problem in the body of Christ.

They refuse to grow so castigate what they refused to learn.

For the last time, folks, "Death is just a passage". We live on.

Death is only a tragedy for those who are without Christ. Am not afraid to die.

Jesus committed suicide no matter how hard you try to reject it...

Do you know about "suicide missions"?? The soldiers actually know they are incapable of winning and they know it'll most likely lead to their death, but they still choose to go (and die)...

Jesus knew he would die, and he walked straight to his death.. That's suicide

I once discussed Jesus' suicide on another thread and none of these Christians could give any cogent reason to counter it

Is this the Bible verse where Jesus commanded us not to transfuse blood or the demons in you won't just let you reason?

The bible also reports that Jesus dying was part of god's plan. And Jesus was privy of it yet they came and died. That is suicide. Do you think drinking otapiapia is the only was to commit suicide?

Jehovah's Witnesses and blood transfusions
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jehovah's Witnesses believe that the Bible prohibits ingesting blood and that Christians should not accept blood transfusions or donate or store their own blood for transfusion.[1] The belief is based on an interpretation of scripture that differs from that of other Christian denominations.[2] It is one of the doctrines for which Jehovah's Witnesses are best known.[3]

Watch Tower Society publications teach that the Witnesses' refusal of transfusions of whole blood or its four primary components—red cells, white cells, platelets and plasma—is a non-negotiable religious stand and that those who respect life as a gift from God do not try to sustain life by taking in blood,[4][5] even in an emergency.[6] Witnesses are taught that the use of fractions such as albumin, immunoglobulins and hemophiliac preparations are "not absolutely prohibited", and are instead a matter of personal choice.[5]

The doctrine was introduced in 1945, and has undergone some changes since then. Members of the religion who voluntarily accept a transfusion and are not deemed repentant are regarded as having disassociated themselves from the religion by abandoning its doctrines[7][8][9] and are subsequently shunned by members of the organization.[10] Although accepted by the majority of Jehovah's Witnesses, a minority does not endorse this doctrine.[11][12]

The Watch Tower Society has established Hospital Information Services to provide education and facilitate bloodless surgery. This service also maintains Hospital Liaison Committees, whose function is to provide support to adherents.

No, why shd i? Only atheists do.

Am not JW , but wont jump to always spill trash because they believe and do things differently.


You guys are here spewing trash, why not start by posting how her Congregation is responsible for choice of death over blood.

I attend church, I have my Bible, i read it. What i don't understand, i ask the Holy Spirit.

I can't find where Jesus said, 'Do not take medication because you are my follower". My church is not against medication, but i personally do not take medication, because i feel i shd exercise my Believer's authority.
If am threatened and at a point of death, but insist on not taking medication, will you hold my church or Christ accountable?

Let me ask you hahn,

"Do you even know what is going on here?".
or do you think atheism or satanism gives you the right to just know?.

hahn:

And if she was willing to give her life rather that go against her faith who are we to condemn her for it? Seriously, the biggest problem here is that we just dont want to see people believe what they want and guess what? We are supposed to be liberals.


Funny aint it?
