Are you true to principle? -

Your answer to the questions that I will pose, are to be rooted on Biblical principles and not your opinion(s).
1. On October 13, 1972, a plane carrying 45 members of a rugby team crashed in the snow-capped Andes mountains. Sixteen (16) survivors were finally rescued after 72 dreadful days of freezing and starvation. They later told the world that during the gruesome ordeal, they had to eat the corpses of their dead companions in order to stay alive. Was their action right?
2. You are a missionary, giving Bible studies to a polygamist in a foreign land. The Bible teaches that in marriage every man must have only one wife, and once married, they should not divorce (except in cases of marital infidelity). the bible also teaches that during the times of ignorance, God overlooks. You recognise that at the time of his marriage the polygamist to whom you are giving the studies did not know of the biblical teaching of monogamy. Also, untold hardships would befall the children and women in the polygamous marriage if the man decides to divorce his many wives. Given these facts, would it be right to baptise the practicing polygamist and his wives into the church?
Pebbles.
