How do you separate your faith and beliefs from logic? For example, if someone dies during self-defence, does that make you a murderer in eyes of God? or what do you do when someone's life can be save with medicine but his/her faith is against the approach?
There are no simple answers to these questions, we just have to pray we never find ourselves in such situations.
A Nigerian mother has lost her 2-week-old baby who was anaemic after she rejected doctors advise concerning the health of her child. The woman reportedly rejected a blood transfusion for her baby.
According to a Nigerian doctor, a 2-week-old baby passed away after the mother refused to grant a blood transfusion for the child.

She revealed that the baby who was anaemic needed the transfusion to undergo surgery. Chioma stated that the mother refused, stating that God had declared that we shouldn't take blood.
Chioma who was baffled by the situation asked Twitter users if the incident could be regarded as murder or faith.
