God says it all to plainly, "Unjust Leaders " Set traps to try and kill off the righteous and the upright at heart. The one 's that knowingly know what they are doing and do nothing, will suffer along with them, Lake of Fire for the unjust attacks and persecution on the righteous "These person will be in for a very big surprise " come the restoration of the King of Kings Lord of Lords. Very, Very close to the restoration....God will do what is Righteous. Then Gods Courtroom will be in session.

Jeremiah 5:26- I believe that some of God's people listen and scrutinize every word, and action that someone says, just to set a trap to see them fall.
