The situation is a hypothetical son is not allowed to befriend anyone from outside his denomination/religion, financial status, or even lets say, race. His parent's have established this rule. The "child" is around the age of 16. Assuming that everyone agrees that things like racism is biblically wrong and a sin, should the son adhere to his parent's choice and thus separate himself from other denominations, or races ect., (meaning he would be sinning) or should he disobey his parents and befriend people of other races ect. (again, sinning by disobeying).
A friend of mine (to my surprise even) side with obeying but voicing an objection from a Biblical stance...but setting a witness through submission. I tend to think that disobeying is the best way ... as our Master is the Lord ... a higher law.
What do you think?
