1909 Watchtower Article on Acts 15:28,29
by pirata ini was suprised to find that the 1909 watchtower had an understanding of the blood ruling that meshes more coherently with the circumstances (galatians 1,2; acts 21:20-32) surrounding that decision.
it acknowledges that these were not binding laws, but rather were made with a preservation of peace between hebrew and gentile christians.
it draws the parallel between blood and meat sacrificed to idols (1 corinthians 8).

A knock-down argument against the WBTS interpretation of Matt 24:45-47!

happy is that slave if his master on arriving finds him doing so.
