Has the Word of God you are preaching changed this time around? Confused Christians are always hypocrites and their practices are inconsistent with the Bible.

Get your facts right! What you are reading from Ghanaweb are DISTORTED information. If you care to know, Ghanaweb has been regularly misleading the reading public in recent times. Even Doctors of our modern era are all choosing alternatives to raw blood transfusions. They are archaic, simplistic, and loaded with unpredictable dangers. There are modern treatment trends that are far superior to raw blood transfusions, which is even so yucky!

The sad thing about JWs, is that they can't even reason, that blood transfusion was unknown and non existent at the time any book of the bible was written. It was only in 1900-1901, that blood groups were discovered, that paved the way for blood transfusion to be made possible, so the commandment in Acts 15:29, for Christians to refrain from blood (that is the King James language. Newer translations very clearly refer to the eating of blood), could not possibly have referred to blood transfusions. There is no historical evidence that blood transfusion was done or even known in Biblical times.

My brother JW refusal of blood transfusion is based on the bible or on religious background but not on medical grounds. If something is described as archaic, it means, that thing has been modernised or transformed so calling blood transfusion as archaic, does it mean that JW refusal of blood transfusion was due to the process but not biblical ? If it's biblical, has the bible been updated? I now know that JWs not receiving blood transfusion is based on human teaching but not on the bible because the bibl hasn't been updated. Why this confusion and why now?

These verses of the bible made me a Muslim and A PROUD AND HAPPY ONE AS SUCH. WHAT JESUS SAID ABOUT HIMSELF?

1. I am a man (John 8:40)(Mathew 8:9)

2. I am a son of man (Matthew 11:19)

3. God sent me ONLY to the LOST SHEEP OF ISRAEL (Matthew 15:24 and Matthew 10:5-6)

4. God is GREATER than me (John 14:28)

5. God sent me to proclaim to the Israelites that He is one and ONLY (Mark 12:29 and John 17:3)

6. God sent me to tell the Israelites that He is the ONLY one to be served and worshipped (Matthew 4:10, Mark 12:30)

7. God didn't send me as a God to be served and worshipped but to serve and worship Him only. (Matthew 20:28)

8. ANYBODY who worship me, is wasting his/her precious critical time. (Matthew 15:9)

9. I never ever claimed to be God because I have God to whom I cried and prayed (Matthew 27:46 and Matthew 26:39)

10. I can't do ANYTHING on my own. I do only what God commands me to do. (John 5:19, 30)

I think most of the Christians followed Paul not Jesus. Muslim people followed Jesus even in the 1st commandments. Jesus is not God and not son of God. Jesus is son of Mary (Maryam) and Grand son of Imran.

Jehovah's Witnesses don't understand the Bible. Some people EAT blood. In Ghana it is called ekyim. That is what the Bible bans. The Jews had no blood transfusions in the primitive days.

They’ve realized it’s not biblical so they decided to change . Only the wise changes their mind . It was long overdue but they’ve changed at least. Instead of being cynical about it commend them for having the courage to change. Some religion still goes about cursing people and wanting to end the lives of those who disagree with them . Muslims are still going around seeking to end the lives of those who mock rhe pedophile prophet and their idiotic moon Arabian pagan moon god yet nobody says a word to them . They are never compatible with the modern society they live in . Their book also tell them to kill those who live Islam. Mothers and fathers are killing their own children for deciding for themselves that Islam is not good for them. That’s what you should use your cynicism for not people who are willing to change their doctine after realizing it was wrong

Lazy Ghanaweb will always not do proper research. As far as I know Jehovah’s witnesses have always had alternatives to blood transfusion but Ghanaian doctors are either obsolete or refuse to learn new ways of treating patients. Just like dialysis some witnesses allow their own blood to be screened and rediverted to them preventing significant blood loss. I don’t know the accuracy of this writing but my patients who of this group will not let you store their blood and give it to them. Any FYI many patients who are not witnesses are also refusing blood transfusion due to it’s risk and complications.

It is all about their stomach and businesses. JW was a white man's establishment, same as the following, Lutheran, Catholic, later day saint, Methodist, Anglican, SDA and stuff, did God call them or they tried to use the church paths for their their own devices and gain? God is real and he is merciful but want everyone to know the truth via Jesus Christ only , the rest are bollocks. The west don't indulge too much in churches anymore, but believe me, God want us to be good and obey his commandments to come to him through Jesus Christ our Lord. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not unto your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge Him and he shall direct your paths.

I don't know why people in these sort of so called religions don't see that none of these churches or so called pastors can help them rather they are being exploited by the so called pastors gain. The people in churches nowadays are so foolish that they can be easily deceived despite the fact that some members are well educated people to know that they being fooled by these idiots. When they use the altar to deceived many telling them to place money and tithe on the altar and they will get blessings in return. You cannot bribe God and God doesn't need your money first before he can bless you. Sam korankye Ankrah is always telling people to place money on the altar for blessings, that is a deception. His son is next in line in the church, he had placed his own children in the leadership posts in the church so that the business become a family business and no outsider.

Jehovah witnesses are a confused club of so called christain hypocrites. They never believed in any form of leadership but time past saw the united nations as worthy of praise. They believed the eygptian pyramids wete symbols of god. Women have no say or right in their organisation. They cant offer to pray when a male member is present. The women were never allowed to were trousers on their door to door, to their conferences or to their places of worship which they call kingdom halls. They are not allowedto be competitive in anything. The women are told not to wear tight outfits that shows their figure, even to the gym because its immoral. So my question is are the women suppose to wear nightgowns to the gym? The women are not suppose to wear clothing that exposes their bra or knickers. But when some women wear clothes that show these 2 items to their kingdom halls, the men , called leaders or elders act like the reading is on the ladies bum or chest. Absolute hypocrisy. The men/women are forbidden to explore Oral sex as its against the organisations policy. But , they love it. If your husband cheats on you , you have to find 2 witnesses to his cheating but you can make a case. Elders in the organisation abuse women, teenagers and children. To report them you have to provide 2 credible witnesses to the abuse before the senior leadership of the congregation you belong to offer audience to hear your case. They never report sexual abuses to the police. But when their place of worship is broken into or vandalised they are swift to call the police. Most of the men slave their wives. I have sat down with them, laid in bed with them, attended their meetings. The believe the chocolate easter eggs are a symbol of Paganism so encourage members to avoid them during easter when sold in shops.but immediately easter is over they buy it when the prices are heavily reduced and offer it as gifts to children. Double standards. They are a confused religious CULTIC group.

COMPLETE LIE. Jehovah’s Witnesses should sue Ghana Web for distorting the truth from their update for people to insult such a reliable organisation. It is either they don't understand English or they are palpable liars.
