The new bible 2013 the Witness translator puts it this way -
Acts 15 "........abstain from {all forms} of fornication and {whole} blood...."
Problem solved.
with regard to the permission of certain blood fractions, what biblical basis is the watchtower's selection of approved and non-approved components or fractions made?.
two key words here: biblical basis.
one answer by a jw caught my attention: .

maybe they ought to move the house out of the path?.
The family was out Witnessing at the time and were saved.....Yeeeeeeah Jehovah! Of course if they were squashed it would be "time and unforseen occurence" and Satan pushed the boulder.
dearest jw,.
likely you are reading this because you are wondering that very thing: did jesus become king in october 1914?
will october 2014 mark 100 years of kingdom rule?.
So how many are left now for the 1914 generation??? Armagedon must be soooooo close!!!
i am doing one of my dreams for a while: growing a beard.
it may not seem like much, but it's quite the experience for me.
it's probably a rite of passage from jw to exjw lol.. besides the itchyness, i hate it that it curls so much (i have hairs that naturally start to curl after a certain length).. anyone here have tips on taking care of a beard?
We Aussies call it "Down under" mate!
i have been thinking about basic theology a lot and the more i think about it the more rediculous it sounds.. so adam and eve died from a small sin of eating a piece of fruit.
if sin causes death why is satan not dead?
why didnt adam and eve die that very day like god said?
Jehovah did not just kill Satan...God has a huge Ego so.....instead for thousands of years he allowed his children to suffer death, sickness, war and famine. Just to prove a point....he even allowed Job to be tortured!!!
IM MORE Merciful then my God so I therefore dont worship him anymore.

looking at the percentage of average publishers of 2013 over 2012 (not the peaks):.
brazil 1.46%.
nigeria 2.60%.
Japans lost tens of thousands and many congs closed down....everyone has internet there. Easy to expose Watchtower lies. Back in 1985 you had to get a copy of Ray Franz book to learn anything.
a sister wanted to abuse the elders for not allowing her "questionable" daughter to be a publisher so she grabs a cloth from under a vase of flowers and puts it on her head beforeyelling at them....good to see sisters knowing their place......is this a bit jewish?.

this is a very strange thing for me to do.
i have been an active witness for over 25 years.
i currently serve as an elder and i conduct the watchtower study.
Once you realize the "faithful slave"are imperfect men who have been making stuff up as they go along...and telling everyone its from the mouth of Jah...you will set yourself free...look up 1925 1940's 1975 they lied about armagedon coming. I know ALOT of old Witnesses who are childless and had to do cleaning to support themselves and were upset about Armagedon not coming when they were told.
