So you'd turn in Anne Frank and runaway slaves if refusing to do so were a class six felony?I would only obey the laws that made good sense, but I'm afraid of going to jail, too, so unless my disobedience would only result in a misdemeanor, I'm obeying them.
Well, therein lies the rub ~ I obey God's laws BEFORE I obey man's laws, so if there is a major conflict, I'll err on the side of God, regardless of consequences.
However, looking at your example, if you're asking me if I would knowingly harbor criminal fugitives, I probably wouldn't since EVERYONE has a tale of woe that makes them sound innocent.
Would I "turn them in," given THOSE examples?
No,
but we know their entire story, and we know that the laws regarding them were unjust and discriminatory, and that their only crime was being who they were, and wanting to live.
