IT IS AN OFFENCE AGAINST GOD TO
INGEST BLOOD INTO HUMAN BODIES.
THE PENALTY.
"For the soul of the flesh is in the
blood... "No soul of you must eat blood and no alien resident who is residing as
an alien in your midst should eat blood." For the soul of every sort of flesh is
its blood by the soul in it. Consequently I said to the sons of Israel: "You
must not eat the blood of any sort of flesh, because the soul of every sort
of flesh is its blood. Anyone eating it will be cut off."
(From Lev 17:11-14).
THE FINAL ADMONITION FROM THE
APOSTLES.
"For the Holy Spirit and we
ourselves have favoured adding no further burden to you, except these necessary
things, to keep abstaining from… blood and from things strangled and from
fornication. If you carefully keep yourselves from these things, you will
prosper." (From Acts 15:28,29).
FREEDOM FROM THE PERSONAL BLOODGUILT OF OTHERS.
"Hence I call you to witness this very
day that I am clean from the blood of all men, for I have not held back
from telling you all the counsel of God."
(including that of blood). (Acts 20:26,27). "Hence my decision is not to
trouble those from the nations who are turning to God, but to write them to
abstain... from blood". (From Acts 15:19,20).
FOR THE ATONEMENT OF OUR SINS.
"The soul of the flesh is in the
blood, and I Myself have put it upon the altar for you to make atonement for
your souls, because it is the blood that makes atonement by the soul in it".
(Lev 17:11). That is why Christ Jesus became a sacrifice for our sins.
(1 John 4:9,10).
VIOLATION OF THE LAW OF GOD TO PRESERVE
HUMAN LIFE LEADS TO LOSS OF ETERNAL LIFE.
When a transfusion of blood takes
place from one human into another, both souls are cut-off from God, for the
reason stated by Him: "...because the soul of every sort of flesh is its
blood. Anyone eating it will be cut off." (Lev 17:14).
Whether human blood is ingested through the
mouth or transfused into a vein, in some form it reaches the blood stream and is
in this way consumed or "eaten". (Lev 17:14).
Transmission of diseases such as A.I.D.S.,
syphilis, malaria and hepatitis through the transfusion of blood from others has
proven to be a devastating way of ruining lives. Transplantation of organs from
one person to another has proven to be another way such diseases are
transmitted.
There are of course alternatives to blood, such
as the plasma expander, Saline. When one considers that blood taken orally from
animals or intravenously from humans is in violation of the Law of God, the
mortality rate among recipients is 100%!
INGEST:
To take into the body.
TRANSFUSE:
To transfer (e.g. blood) to another's
veins.
