you provide a succinct answer.
versus: How does the Bible answer. I cannot go beyond the things written.
I have reconciled every scripture regarding blood.

i know we have all talked about this topic before, but for some new ones on the forum, or to refresh ourselves, i wanted to start this thread.. the society likes to go on about the sacredness of blood, and how it should not be transfused etc.. they liken it to a symbol of life itself.
something that should be respected and therefore not transfused.. but, what is more important: real life, or a symbol of life?.
an illustration came to mind.. if we give a bunch of flowers to a loved one as a symbol of our love for them, are those flowers more important than the love itself?

The question
@ Cofty:The Bible does not say -unless you can show that it does. Further, your question is another deflection evading the scriptures that debunk your article.

spent 30 pages trying to explain it to you. I see you have learned nothing in the past 5 months.
@ Cofty: And to talk again about the topic, as Nathan Natas pointed out to you, your arrogant assertions fall down on their own merit. The Bible needs to talk. Who needs to listen to your pages and pages of explanations of Scripture, as if your explanations and conclusions based upon Cofty's beliefs established anything at all. You were shown scriptures falsifying your assertions. You failed to buttress your assertions with the Bible but instead deflected using Cofty based explanations, going on and on and on, repeating your Cofty based claims -which is a waste of time for anyone who sincerely wants to make a Bible based decision. Your theories sit upon your conclusion that God somehow gave Israel derivative approval to eat blood from dead animals. The scriptures I showed you invalidate your claims.

there will be no conversation.
Believe what you like and post then. In the meantime, the scriptures that I posted on this thread and on yours debunk your theory. Toodle-oo!
chapter 24. feed the rounder.
i was dying everyday on the machines.
i prayed.
Remember Gukenbiel and Breke

Until you provide a clear and concise answer to that question there is nothing more to be said.
@ Cofty: I want to point out to you that it is up to you to comment if you like or reply to my posts if you like but it is not up to you to determine whether or not you have the final say on anything in any discussion between us. -As if you were some authority or something.

you consistently refused to answer the simple question of why the bible draws a clear distinction between the blood of an animal found already dead and an animal that has been slaughtered.
@ Cofty:The Bible does not say.
But the Bible does say in the scriptures that I quoted that Israel was forbidden to eat animals found dead.

Very detailed answers to all your so-called objections can be found at the link I provided.
@ Cofty: You answered nothing in your previous linked post and you did not refute with scripture in that linked post, the scriptures that I quoted falsifying your theory. All you did was to attempt to explain away those scriptures that I quoted with your other theories. --As if your theories are fact because Cofty says so.

Anybody who wishes can read.
@Cofty: You have brought your previous posts into this discussion although they fail to validate your theories stated in those post or refute my statements in this discussion on this thread.
You go on and on with your commentary in your linked article but no scriptures to back up your beliefs. And you circumvent having to reply to my posts on this thread by referring to those previous posts as if they prove/proved your theories or refute my statements here.
Again, Lev 19:26.

Cofty, as I stated before, it is your article and you are the one attempting to persuade the reader.
Stop going on a rant with your readers asking them a million questions as a deflection, instead, support your beloved theories by citing scriptures.
In Lev 19:26, God forbade Israel to eat anything containing blood. Animals found dead or torned also contained blood and Israel was forbidden to eat them based upon this scripture.
