A new thought on the Blood doctrine
by Splash ini don't think this has been mentioned before, but i had a thought about acts 15:20, and it's all about the context:.
act 15:19 hence my decision is not to trouble those from the nations who are turning to god, .
act 15:20 but to write them to abstain from things polluted by idols and from fornication and from what is strangled and from blood.. act 15:21 for from ancient times moses has had in city after city those who preach him, because he is read aloud in the synagogues on every sabbath.

Nice 1975 quote from F Franz, in 1975
by Splash in*** w75 5/1 p. 285 a contrastmissionaries with an urgent, lifesaving work ***.
another speaker, f. w. franz, the societys vice-president, forcefully impressed on the audience the urgency of the christian preaching work.. he stressed that, according to dependable bible chronology, 6,000 years of human history will end this coming september according to the lunar calendar.
this coincides with a time when the human species [is] about to starve itself to death, as well as its being faced with poisoning by pollution and destruction by nuclear weapons.. franz added: theres no basis for believing that mankind, faced with what it now faces, can exist for the seventh thousand-year period under the present system of things.
