When faced with the dilemma Peter and the other Apostles faced here before the council we are to obey God rather than man. They were preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ and had been told to stop doing so by these men, they refused to do so in the face of great punishment. Recently in Iran there is a Christian minister who was jailed because he refused to renounce his Christian faith and accept Islam, he now faces the death penalty for his stance on Christianity. This is what these verses are speaking of. In the face of great danger we are not to compromise our Faith in God because of man. They are not speaking of civil laws made by man as we are told "to obey the laws of the land", only when those man made laws go against Gods laws are we to make our stand with God.
