  for me it was bible reading, where you could express your own opinion, in line with present truth of course.. pre the change it was awful listening to some fool telling you his opinion of bible highlights.

  HOW can a Jdub accept BLOOD FRACTIONS?? hmm?

  by martinwellborne in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  i thought the main thing with the blood issue was that it was to be viewed from god's point of view.

  not that it would be up to individual choice and conscience.

  my point that i am trying to get to is this, how can a jdub accept blood fractions if they want to view blood in the same light as god would.. am i making this clear?
