    Why Do Jehovah's Witnesses Reject Blood Transfusions?

    Thank you for what you said. I like Paul understand we are saved by grace but too many in the past and today use grace as an excuse to disregard what God tells us to do and who he wants us to be. We can't practice any kind of sin and then use grace as an excuse.

    Why Do Jehovah's Witnesses Reject Blood Transfusions?

    Jehovah witnesses doesn't have divisions in it's organization, that's Christendom that has so many divisions and denominations in it. We haven't caused those divisions Christendom has, and it's because that Christendom members don't agree as they should and they certainly don't have the love...

    Why Do Jehovah's Witnesses Reject Blood Transfusions?

    I am listening, I just won't agree with your reasoning. I know what you said, that you said the blood concerning Acts 15:28,29 only had to do with ritual sacrifice concerning idols. However when concerning Acts 15:28,29 Jesus’ half brother James brought to the council’s attention certain...

    Why Do Jehovah's Witnesses Reject Blood Transfusions?

    Oh I'm understanding those who reason like you correctly. You can disagree all you want but you are the ones who use grace as an excuse to sin. I understand John 6:53-57 I don't use these scriptures however to justify myself if I don't obey God's written word which includes Acts 15:28,29. How...

    Must a Christian Work to Keep Themself Sinless in Order to Keep Their Salvation?

    Tango2020 Said: Such teachers, according to John, are antiChrist and went out from the church, that they be made manifest. And what do you suppose of them who went out from the church, if not that they had deceived many and came from them many false teachers and antiChrist denominations of all...

    Why Do Jehovah's Witnesses Reject Blood Transfusions?

    When Acts 15:28,29 was written the Christians knew then they were not under the law covenant, yet the scriptures still said to God's true servants to have nothing to do with idols or fornication. Acts 15:28,29 shows us that just as God's True servants will continue to abstain from idols or...

    Why Do Jehovah's Witnesses Reject Blood Transfusions?

    Wrong, the abstaining of blood goes way back further with the Jews. It had nothing to do with idols. It goes all the way back to Noah and was included in the law covenant. For you to say that the only relation about abstaining from blood is idols shows you really don't know about what the...

    Why Do Jehovah's Witnesses Reject Blood Transfusions?

    How people live their lives is their choice, if other people want to ignore Acts 15:28,29 that's their right to ignore it. I'm not going to ignore it as most religions do. They ignore the scriptures that tell us to, not fornicate, even though they say with there lips it's wrong. It's become a...

    Must a Christian Work to Keep Themself Sinless in Order to Keep Their Salvation?

    Actually the JW organization have no divisions or denominations in it. The fact you believe there are shows that you are ignorant of the JW organization. The leaders have covered up nothing. You can disbelieve that all you want. But whenever the authorities wanted to see anything the JW have...

    Why Do Jehovah's Witnesses Reject Blood Transfusions?

    The scriptures are very clear that the reason blood is to be abstained from is because the life of the creature whether it be a animal or human is in the blood of the creature and it has been put on the alter. This is the reason a person abstains from blood. These animal sacrifices where a...

    Why Do Jehovah's Witnesses Reject Blood Transfusions?

    tsr said: It is clear from the context that the instructions were against eating / drinking blood, not blood transfusions. Blood transfusions were not even possible in Bible times, so there is no possibility that this Scripture could be referring to blood transfusions.[/Quote\] This scripture...

    Why Do Jehovah's Witnesses Reject Blood Transfusions?

    I believe a True Christ should listen to the leading of the True God so should listen to his Holy Spirit. At Acts 15: 28,29 the inspired written word of God says, "For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things; That ye abstain...

    Must a Christian Work to Keep Themself Sinless in Order to Keep Their Salvation?

    There were some who began to believe and teach that the ransom sacrifice of Jesus Christ wasn't necessary so they weren't no longer considered JW and no longer allowed to be a part of JW organization because JW have always believed that the ransom sacrifice of Jesus Christ was necessary. I don't...

    Why Do Jehovah's Witnesses Reject Blood Transfusions?

    I think God has excellent timing, because I was at one time long ago going to baptists and pentecostal churches and seen things that didn't seem scriptural to me and then one day the witnesses were at my door and left the book live forever on Paradise Earth I got hook on that book which had...

    Why Do Jehovah's Witnesses Reject Blood Transfusions?

    Ronald Colette said: ↑ Well I cherish and accept the Blood of Christ your whole point is moot and irrelevant! Notice the teaching of the Holy Spirit is you will do well or prosper. Not if you abstain you won't sin![/Quote\] Yes, you will do well. Don't you think that agreeing and going along...

    And I will say the way it actually is, and that's you're a weed calling the truth false and what is false you call the truth.

    Tong2020 said: Does not refute my point.[/Quote\] Actually it does, but I don't expect someone who belongs to the Catholics or protestant churches to believe or understand that. The history of the Catholic and protestant churches, their fruits, show who they truly are and their not christians...

    There have been those that started teaching something that was unscriptural and have been is fellowshipped for it. They no longer belong to the JW congregation.

    Response to how is it a terrible...

    You agree with those who twist things. Nowhere in scripture is it written down that Jesus is God. You just go by imperfect people interpretation of what is written down, I go by what God inspired men to write down, there's a difference. I believe what the scriptures say, that Jesus is the Only...
