Proverbs 3:4 So shalt thou find favor and good understanding in the sight of God and man. 5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
In some instances, organs were harvested from folks who were still living, and in Alabama, it was found that inmates in the prison system had their organs removed after death, without their families knowing what had taken place. Thus, what God originally gave us, as something to be used only when necessary, has morphed into a multibillion industry, and with very little oversight in some developing countries, third world countries, or in far east countries.
God could never approve of such surgeries where organs of nonconsenting individuals are bought and sold on the black market for cash. That is why God says that the abuse of something good is taking place, and has to be addressed by the Christian who is living today. It is an undeniable fact, that every good thing God has given us, would inevitably be perverted by the prince of darkness.
And even though we should not throw out the baby with the bath water, we should seek guidance from God, and His word whenever a surgery becomes necessary. Thus, the Bible study for today will focus on guiding principles to be observed, whenever the Christian is considering surgery, so that God’s approval may rest upon the procedure. [1] Whatever you need to do, and whatsoever you plan to do, as far as surgery is concerned, it is highly recommended that persons check in with The Great Physician first so that he can direct the human agent in the procedure.
Proverbs 3:6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
