  Blood Transfusion History

  1665 The first recorded successful blood transfusion occurs in England: Physician Richard Lower keeps dogs alive by transfusion of blood from other dogs.

  1818 James Blundell performs the first successful blood transfusion of human blood to treat postpartum hemorrhage.

  1840 The first whole blood transfusion to treat hemophilia is successfully completed.

  1900 Karl Landsteiner discovers the first three human blood groups, A, B and O.

  1902 Landsteiner’s colleagues, Alfred Decastello and Adriano Sturli, add a fourth blood type, AB.

  1907 Blood typing and cross matching between donors and patients is attempted to improve the safety of transfusions. The universality of the O blood group is identified.

  1914 Adolf Hustin discovers that sodium citrate can anticoagulate blood for transfusion, allowing it to be stored and later transfused safely to patients on the battlefield.

  1932 The first blood bank is established at Leningrad hospital.

  1939-1940 The Rh blood group is discovered and recognized as the cause behind most transfusion reactions.

  1940 The US government establishes a nationwide blood collection program.

  So from the beginning of the Watchtower being printed in 1879, they were ok with blood transfusions until 1945. What caused this? Do you think there wasn't enough sickness and death from the discouragement of vaccines and they neded more martyrs to feed their sense of self-righteousness?

  I'm sure they will have first class gym facilities for themselves while they deny sports participation to millions of their own youth in their schools.

  Education video this midweeks meeting

  there is an item this week all about yang ones leaving school.. the two brothers go to a career advisor seminar.

  one brother thinks it’s good to work hard full time while you are young and tries to encourage his friend to as well.. his friend (who is the good jw trust the gb no matter what they say)) he wants a part time job.. the video shows him dreaming about investing his money on his phone and the chart goes up, he drives a nice car and seems to be doing well financially.. then he reads the scripture in proverbs and next you see that investment chart go down in the red and he is so pleased he just got a low paid part time job.. this infuriates me.

  how many of us are now struggling because we were told to get menial part time jobs and we were told the end would have been here by now.. i will never tell a young person to listen to the gb advice on this.

  the video shows him dreaming about investing his money on his phone and the chart goes up, he drives a nice car and seems to be doing well financially.
  then he reads the scripture in Proverbs and next you see that investment chart go down in the red and he is so pleased he just got a low paid part time job.

  Romans 10: 9 Simple Salvation - Not So Fast Says WT.

  by Sea Breeze in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  "if you confess with your mouth that jesus is lord and believe in your heart that god raised him from the dead, you will be saved".

  - romans 10: 9. i find it interesting that this simple requirement for salvation has been a specific target of wt since their beginning.. first, jw's call jehovah lord, not jesus.

  the fact that scripture calls jesus the king of kings and lord of lords doesn't seem to matter to them.

  @Halcon

  Websters 1828 Dictionary is a great resource in researching Christianity. JW's are not the only ones to deceive by changing definitiuons of words. Sorry about the negative review. Hit the wrong button.

  www.gotquestions.org is also very doctrinally solid.
  
  @Vidqun,

  Yes, that all sounds about right. Here's a good discussion on the topic. The thing a person wants to look out for is Replacement Theology, which is the view that believers completely replaced Israel. Jewish believers remain in the tree but are joined with Gentiles and “made” into a “new body,” ("one new man") the Church (Ephesians 2:11–22).

  Gentile Christians are not the trunk, we are the branches that are grafted in. The nation of Israel will be the premiere nation on earth some day with Jesus as King. It will no longer be a byword and an object of laughter among the nations.

  The tree or righteousness (belief and trust in God) that God planted in Abraham will come into full bloom during the 1K yr. reign of Jesus.

  Where is Tony?

  on february 22, 2023, anthony morris iii was officially removed from the governing body of jehovah's witnesses.

  a few months later it was revealed that the watchtower bought him a house in lumberton, north carolina.. however, and correct me if i am wrong, since leaving the gb nobody has reported seeing tony attending jw meetings or participating in field service.

  in fact nobody has reported seeing him anywhere, not even at a local liquor store.

  Halcon, this is a reference to the abandonment of oneself that is required for salvation..."a living sacrifice". It is a reference to the dethroning of self and the enthronement of Jesus as Lord.
  
  And of course before we could logically put someone on the throne of our life, we need to make sure they are really legit. That's what the resurrection is for. Before the cross, Jesus predicted that he would resurrect himself from the dead, while he was dead.

  So, if you are good with a man who resurrected himself from the dead being the Lord of your life, that's about all there is to getting saved. Living the Christian life is a 3 step process though.
  
  1. Justification

  2. Sanctification

  3. Glorification
