It is ok to disobey the law of the land if it goes against the Law or will of the Father. Take for example in Daniel when Shadrach, Meshach, and Obednigo (sp?) didn't bow down to the statue/idol of the king. This was clearly against the law, but a higher law (that of God) superceded it. We must act the same.

That was the point. The Church must operate in a different sphere and must not be subject to civil gov't in Her internal affairs.

Thank you, JM. I agree wholeheartedly.
