Please could you make this YouTube video viewable in other countries please. I try to watch it but it just says "The uploader has not made this video available in your country."
"For what benefit will it be to a man if he gains the whole world but forfeits his soul?," said Jesus. JW's look at this life as brief compared to forever. Obedience to the Christian command to 'abstain from blood' (Acts 15:20 KJ) takes faith. In the rare case of death (some die with transfusions too), there is thus hope. Posts below reveal ignorance. Get the full truth from bonafide Witness. Informed people know we live by the whole Bible, and don't sidestep verses like the above.
Thank you PBS. As one of Jehovah's Witnesses I know that many of us will let our own child die before we will allow doctors to transfuse blood. So I'm glad that the medical community has done so much to help us. Yet sad to say Jehovah's witnesses are still dying because they won't accept blood. But sadder is the fact that we have to allow our children to think we would let them die.
@4WW5T1N Yes it is. It's a very complicated issue. Most Jehovah's Witnesses that I know will say that they would not give their child blood even if it were to die. There are those that secretly know that would give their child blood if they had to. But what they don't realize is that if the time came the issue would be emotionally charged and the Elders would be there to pressure them. also children of JWs grow up with the knowledge that their own mother would allow them to die.
@lillyannaelizabeth Like churches that support Homosexuals, Faiths that go to war, and the "faithful" that have pre-marital sex, fornicate, and have extra-marital relations with those other then their spouse. How does a church allow such things when it is completely and obviously against biblical standards, priniciples, and guidelines? And w/o punishment?
