If the Bible says Taking of Blood is wrong...then it remains wrong. No compromises.

Who stopped them from living?
I'm just not comfortable with people saying the Bible is against B.T....Belief is different from 'Truth/God's word'

cos u haven't come across it yet doesnt mean it wasnt written.
When you do come across it doesn't gaurantee u would agree with it.

My opinion: Blood Transfusion might not be wrong (for the motive is to save life).
But the fact still remains that "Taking of Blood" is forbidden in the Bible.

Interpretation might be the problem here...If Taking of Blood amounts to Blood Transfusion.

All i know is i don't wanna have no reason to transfuse blood o

I said I haven't come across it...It doesn't  mean I meant it wasn't written
and why would I have a reason to disagree with a 'Book' as great as the Bible?

This brings us to the same point.....My question is: Did the Bible clearly state that we musn't transfuse blood?
If Yes......Where please?
I think we are misunderstanding the Bible here....'He' says we should stay away from blood, It could mean that 'He'
was referring to animal blood used for sacrifice as that passage Act 15:29 talks about sacrificial animals too.
My Point: Anything and everything still isn't Truth unless I come across it in the Bible....We just can't work on assumption alone Plus, Neither do I wana have a reason to transfuse blood.
