Hi, Br Hiro,

I think these two or three months was just a topsy-turvy, but now it's Ok for us to have Bible study even it will be held on line.

Here's my question. 14th of Nisan falls on 22nd of March this year and naturally Jehovah's Witnesses celebrate Easter as other Christians do but you know openly speaking you don't celebrate Jesus's resurrection.

Why not? This is a simple but strong question.

I moved to Kokura for one reason but I don' t think my stay here lasts for good.
Anyway I come home next Sunday 22nd of April, ah..you are absent!


I am really glad if you sent me a passage with a couple of questions. I intend to reply as much as possible.

    Thank you very much for your comment, even you leave unnamed.

    I am curious to see the links you wrote, I wonder there are such sites.

    I read the Bible descriptions thoroughly as to blood or blood related prohibition. But it's hard to find the relation between its description and their attitude to blood transfusion.

    I imagined they think it's oppotunity for them to show their faith whether to accept or refuse blood transfusion.

    It is their freedom for them to make the most of its oppotunity in the case of adults who can decide what they are eager to do, but it remains questionable in the case of teen-agers who cannot do what they want if they are opposed by their parents who happened to have different views from them.
