“The inspired Holy Scriptures answer yes.”
Answer to whether a baptized receiver of a transfusion is subject to disfellowshipping; unrepentant or persistent receivers 'must be cut off therefrom by disfellowshiping'; a repentant first offender receives instruction instead.
1993 · p.183 · Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society
“When transfusions of blood became an issue confronting them, The Watchtower of July 1, 1945, explained at length the Christian view regarding the sanctity of blood.”
Also: 'Earlier discussions of the sanctity of blood appeared in The Watch Tower of December 15, 1927, as well as The Watchtower of December 1, 1944, which specifically mentioned blood transfusions.' And: 'beginning in 1961 any who ignored the divine requirement, accepted blood transfusions, and manifested an unrepentant attitude were disfellowshipped'.
