Genesis 3:
[SUP]4 [/SUP]And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
[SUP]5 [/SUP]For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
[SUP]6 [/SUP]And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
Genesis 5:5
And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died.
John 10:10
The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
Revelation 13:
[SUP]11 [/SUP]And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
[SUP]12 [/SUP]And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
[SUP]13 [/SUP]And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
[SUP]14 [/SUP]And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
[SUP]15 [/SUP]And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
Proverbs 1:
[SUP]20 [/SUP]Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets:
[SUP]21 [/SUP]She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth her words, saying,
[SUP]22 [/SUP]How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge?
[SUP]23 [/SUP]Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.
[SUP]24 [/SUP]Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded;
[SUP]25 [/SUP]But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:
[SUP]26 [/SUP]I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;
[SUP]27 [/SUP]When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.
[SUP]28 [/SUP]Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:
[SUP]29 [/SUP]For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the Lord:
[SUP]30 [/SUP]They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.
[SUP]31 [/SUP]Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.

Anti-biotics kill beneficial bacteria that God put inside us and anti-biotics eventually become ineffective.
Once again, faith and the grace of God allow sickness to be healed, where as the devices of man fail.

You did not answer my question. What if YOU stored up YOUR blood in a bloodbank in preparation for a planned surgery?
The point about anti-biotics just underscores the absurdity of this issue. First it's no transfusions, then it's no anti-biotics, next what will it be? Aspirin? X-rays? bandages? ... See how silly this is?
God the essence of all spirit life.... is not worshipped by human hands as a will. He does not heal by human hands.
The spirit of life that dwells in the flesh is in the blood, but spirit life is not because of the blood.Blood has no breath of life
Blood transfusion like any other medication can help heal a person who has life. Medications of its self have no spirit life to offer. The person in who receives it must have essence of spirit life given by the Holy Spirit. He must be alive. There is no medication that can cause spirit life or keep it
Blood transfusions to those who have not spirit are useless. It would be like giving a dead person an aspirin and saying; call me in the morning. The Spirit of God is not passed down by the parents. Children are gift of the Lord. Just as in our new born again life man can plant the corrupted seed but God must breath into the spirit of life His Spirit as the spiritual seed of Christ it causes the growth .Take away the spirit men die.
The key I believe is searching for what it means to eat blood seeing it must be a metaphor used in parables. We eat and drink of the spirit. No spirit no eating or drinking
A body cannot work to receive healing if there is no spirit to begin with. Just as the faith of Christ that works in us must have life, the life of Christ
Jam 2:26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

I do not get people, Is God going to punish you for taking things to save your life?
lets see, He said David sinning and taking the showbread was ok, He even had the disciples break the sabbath (letter) so they could be strengthened with food. He healed on the sabbath,
I think Jesus shows that life is the most important part.
Granted they did not sin, They are just proofs that some things are more important..

It makes you wonder, Do they really think God looks at them and smiles. and says wow, i have a special place fo you in heaven, All people who had faith, many of whome became martyres for your faith, COme over here, You have the upper area of heaven,
All you who did not,,, you stay here, we will show you how great your heaven is, just not as good as those who did not listen to the doctors (by the way God allowed those doctors, and allowed the knowledge of medicine, so peoples lives could be saved.) but thats beside the point.
No, it does not stand, because Satan is liar, so people offering you something does not equate to people automatically being able to deliver that something, just as Satan could not extend the life of A&E into eternity so they could be like God in His immortality. Therefore saying the original poster's statement made no sense makes no sense! The doctors are playing god just as Satan does, and that was the point. Satan being a liar and doctors being deceived only ADDS to that point.
I believe I wouldn't need surgery, and by storing up blood I'd just be proving to God that I didn't trust Him.
It's not absurd. God doesn't forbid medicine (including asprin), He forbids consuming blood (animal blood), let alone having someone you don't know give you their own.
Antibiotics kill beneficial bacteria too. If you choose to use them you should be aware of the collateral damage.
"On the 3453453598th day God led <insert Christian> to the hospital to receive the blood of a sodomite containing sickle cells because his doctor recommended a minor surgery" -- nope.
I notice that none of the people defending them can provide scripture other than the existence of doctors.
If a scientist comes up with a mark of the beast, is it moral or right to take it? Scientists exist so they must come from God, right?
This issue is about not recognizing the fact that the world is against God, that there is a conspiracy against truth, and most Christians don't realize that just because something exists, it doesn't mean that God approves it or gave the idea to us.
I'm going off scripture, the importance of blood and that it contains life force.
What about this?

Is this from God?
"It's nice to know that if my 3 parents had listened to Zen I would never have been born"
Boohoo.
