Do Jehovah's Witnesses eat meat with blood in it and non kosher foods if not why?

Answer 1

No.

Jehovah Witnesses do not knowingly take in blood in any form, whether through oral ingestion, blood transfusion, or any other manner. This is the command from JEHOVAH Himself to not only protect against blood diseases, but to show the true sanctity of blood and life in His eyes. (SEE Genesis 4:8-10; 9:3-6; Leviticus 3:17; 7:26,2717:10-12 and Acts 15:20,21,23,28,29) Any who willfully treats blood of animals or humans as food or a health benefit is disobeying divine standards and, if one of Jehovah's Witnesses, will no longer be considered one of Jehovah's Witnesses.

Therefore, it is the intention of all loyal, true Christians to abstain from using blood in an unauthorized manner. Generally, no JW's take this lightly.

Studies have actually shown that Bloodless surgeries offer quicker recovery time, and less complications.

Answer 2

Well, I'm one of Jehovah's Witnesses, and yes, absolutely, we believe in the atoning power of Jesus' blood. It is central to our belief in the prospect of everlasting life. (John 3:16, 36; 17:3) Once a year we celebrate the memorial of Jesus Christ's death, the only celebration which Christians are actually commanded to celebrate. (Luke 22:19) At this event there is the passing of the bread and of the wine. The bread symbolizes his body and the wine his blood. (Mark 14:22-24)

Although only the anointed ones, those who are part of the 144,000 destined to go to heaven to be rulers over the earthly multitudes (Rev 5:9,10) eat the bread and drink the wine, all of Jehovah's Witnesses respectfully attend this special occasion. So to answer your question - Yes - we DEFINITELY believe in the blood of the Christ. And we thank Jehovah every single day for the ultimate blood sacrifice of his Son, which is the very reason we receive forgiveness for our sins and have the hope of living forever in heaven or on earth. (Psalm 37:11,29) In fact, the reason we take our witness work so seriously is also because of Jesus and the command he gave to all his Christian disciples at Matthew 28:19,20.

Answer 3

Jehovah's Witnesses take the sacredness of blood very seriously based on The Bible.

Leviticus 17:14 says "For the life of every sort of flesh is its blood, because the life is in it. Consequently, I said to the Israelites: "You must not eat the blood of any sort of flesh because the life of every sort of flesh is its blood. Anyone eating it will be cut off."

Acts 15:28,29 also brings out that Christians were to keep the commandment to not eat blood. Because of this, Jehovah's Witnesses stay away from any food that is not bled properly.

They also reject blood transfusions based on the principle that injecting something in your veins is the same as ingesting it. Many consider this to be a perfectly logical conclusion because if you were to inject a harmful substances in your veins and bypass the digestive system, you would likely be effected by the substance in much the same way or to an even greater degree. Faithful Witnesses will reject blood transfusions even if the medical professions insist they will lose their life without it.
