  Blood - current JW thinking...

  by dozy in

  a few observations from (indirectly) talking to a couple of hlc members who have recently attended meetings with his in brooklyn:.

  (1) any hope that the wts will further reform the blood policy is wide of the mark.

  the wts is very happy & settled with the current situation (whole blood + 4 components = nono everything else ok).

  QUESTIONS TO ASK TO OPEN THEIR EYES AND SAVE LIVES

  by aanita in

  questions to ask to open the eyes of jehovah's witnesses and save some lives.

  my first question is - you use acts 15 saying "abstain from blood" as if applied to modern emergency transfusions of whole blood but isn't it balanced by matthew 12:7 where christ says god wants "mercy not sacrifice" when surely the death of even one single adult or child is sacrifice;.

  my second question is - isn't it significant that 1 samuel 14:32-35 says to stay alive all saul's men ate blood with meat and were not punished with death; they only had to build an altar to show they were sorry it had been absolutely necessary, and that was due to the mosaic law then being in effect;.
