Well… I can’t speak for the man above, but I don’t understand your logic in this. Do you believe that modern medicine was something given from above so that people could live longer, or don’t you? By your logic, one should never take anything that can heal and extend life, because logic. 🙄 If it weren’t for modern medicine, the life expectancy of human beings would revert to the short existence it was centuries ago. Stub your toe and get a cut, it gets infected and you ☠️. Why? Because the antibiotics needed to cure the infection would not be allowed. This sounds like that kooky Christian Scientist logic, honestly. Transplants are perfectly acceptable. It’s a way to sustain life, a gift from those whose journey on this earth has ended. There is absolutely no reason why someone shouldn’t pursue that option if it’s available to them, because denying treatment and knowing death is the result is effectively suicidal (depending upon the context). Frankly, you’re going to have to back up that crazy ideology with scriptures showing that physicians aren’t allowed to heal, because that’s what they were given the knowledge for.

People have wrestled with this type of decision for a long time. I read an online article that dealt with organ transplant in Israel. I encourage you to look it up. Scripture seems mute on this subject but there are principles that guide our decision making. I know that I would not think it too deeply unless I or a loved one would be in need of one. Some things seem out there until it touches us directly. In 2008 I was deathly ill and needed a blood transfusion. That blood enabled me to live. I prayed to the Father to allow me to live. I had a five year old boy at the time.
