JW's and blood?

Question

I am kind of curious. Someone asked a question about you guys eating meat earlier since it contains blood. Most answers said most of the blood is removed. It got me to thinking though. I like my steak rare and bloody. Do any of you guys eat it that way? If so doesn't it violate your issues with blood?

Answer 1

It is so silly!! They can eat blood and fat, but they are willing to die because their organization would punish them

Answer 2

eating blood is eating blood, cooked or raw, its in meat. Personally I think this doctrine is dangerous. There is no substitute for blood. If you lose enough blood, you will die. The JW teach there is a substitute, there is not. I saw a 21 year old girl die because she was a JW and would not accept a blood transfusion. Her brother thought there was a substitute, There is none. Unless all JW are vegetarian they are all eating blood every day, and to teach people that a transfusion of blood is wrong is a dangerous teaching. Many people have died because of this outrageous false teaching.

Answer 3

You should stop. I used to do so, but now repented of it.
A moment of earthly pleasure is not worthy of eternal punishment in the flames of hell. Furthermore Jesus said, if ye love Me, keep My commandments.


EXPOSE JW CULTIC AND SATANIC TEACHINGS


The only way forward is to expose them, their heretical and deviant Satanic teachings through Biblical preachings.


Psa 23:1 The LORD (Jehovah) is my Shepherd; I shall not want.

If you actually analyse the first verse in Psalm 23 (a well known which is written by King David), the LORD Jehovah is the Shepherd.

Who is this LORD? Is it God the Father or is it God the Son? A five year old in our midst may already able to identify. Any adult with an ounce of uprightness and a modicum of evangelical integrity arising from a evangelically converted heart would have acknowledge that Jehovah (ie the LORD) is NONE OTHER THAN JESUS CHRIST, the blessed Second Person of the Godhead - is the Shepherd.

Perhaps, some in this forum may want further proof, which is amply furnished here, who the Shepherd is, who is none other than the Lord Jesus Christ:

Joh 10:11
I am the good Shepherd: the good Shepherd giveth His life for the sheep.

Joh 10:14
I am the good Shepherd, and know My sheep, and am known of Mine.

Heb 13:20
Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,

1Pe 2:21-25
For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow His steps: ….but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.



Thus if any JW hath an ounce of uprightness and a modicum of evangelical integrity arising from a evangelically converted heart may want to repent to understand Psalm 23 correctly;

Jehovah (ie Jesus Christ) is my Shepherd ………

If the JW cannot see this, how then can they see their deviant heretical and Satanic practice of refusal of blood transfusion?? Thus, there will be more orphans, more heart aches, and the only persons who rejoice is the evil trinity (Rev 16:13) that energise these heresies (Guess unto whose domain doth CT Russell fall, namely the dragon, the beast or the false prophet?).


Pray that Jehovah Christ Jesus may show redeeming grace to remove the scales from the JW eyes (Acts 9:18, KJV)


Shalom
