I'll start with the hardest subjects blood transfusions,Mr F relates a somewhat distorted version of the experiences of a young Jehovahs witness couple and their child.This couple in light of Bible teaching believe that blood transfussions where against GODS laws,GEN9*4,LEV7*24,17*24 and ACTS15*20. So they extended their parental rights to ask fornon blood alternative treatments (which there are several),and these alternatives alsohave less chance of complications.Let me make this point with an illustration,"Two Jehovahs witnessess are in hospital both are told they need blood transfusions,one has the blood,one doesnt,both of them die.The one who had the transfusion 'WOULD HAVE DIED ANYWAY',The one who didnt 'DIED BECAUSE HE DIDNT HAVE BLOOD'.Now I challenge anyone to say that wouldnt be how theyd think."(I dont think like that I should add) As a disfellowshipped person I bare no malice towards Jehovahs people,I joined knowing what was expected of me and I broke the rules and confessed my sins,if id stayed and lived a lie,what chance salvation? The other thing is when I was in good standing I ignored disfellowshipped persons,should I expect to be treated any different? Onto politics we believe that GODS Kingdom(or goverment) under Christs leadership is the only answer to the worlds troubles,so we do not vote,hold political office,salute the flagor sing the national anthem.Are these major crimes or just JWS exerting their right to Christian neutrality.ACTS5*29 says we must obey GOD as ruler rather than men. On the other hand we pay our taxes,MAR12*17"Pay Caesars things to caesar" Obey the laws of the land,ROM13*1 "Let everyone be in subjection to the superior authorities" and this is true in every country you find JWS.Nowe dont join the military,because we believe in peace and love(You know JF ,JESUS often talked about them) not in being trained to kill our fellow man.Id love to hear you justify joining the army against the love of jesus,which army do you think he would join? No we dont smoke it defiles the body. Wedont celebrate pagan holiday like xmas and easter but we do commemorate JESUS death as JESUS instructed his disciples ,LUK22*19. We dont adhere to days celebrating men and not GOD. JF says we consider works more important than faith,thats not true but check JAM2*26 "Faith without works is dead." Now at one JF suggested that the JW governing body where making fortunes,has anybody on board spoke to JWs on the door lately? If you do youll find all books and magazines and Bibles are FREE.Their really gonna make a lotof money that way. How much does your church charge Mr F? So if Mr Fitzgerald comespreaching in your area hit him with your Bible.(Truths) more to come.
