Changes

The Jehovah's Witnesses are well known for their refusal to receive blood transfusions. This is based on their interpretation on a number of passages in the Bible. These include [[Genesis 9]]:3-4 where God commanded Noah and his family to not eat blood. Again in [[Leviticus 7:26]] and [[Deuteronomy 12:16]] this command in is re-iterated. Mainstream This command is reiterated again in the [[New Testament]]. In a list of things that Christians argue however were forbidden to do, since there was confusion because the Law had been abolished, the disciples said that the Christians were supposed to abstain from blood.-Acts 15:28, 29 Jehovah's Witnesses are mistaken believe that this decleration applies to all forms of taking blood into the body because the specifics of the Mosaic Law do Scripture in Acts does not apply to ''so that you cannot eat blood transfusions'', but only the drinking of that you must completely abstain from blood. They claim that taking a blood transfusion would not be abstaining from blood.
