The Just and Righteous Judge

The Just & Righteous Judge (King James Bible; Psalm 82)

God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods.

How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah.

Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy.

Deliver the poor and needy: rid them out of the hand of the wicked.

They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness;

all the foundations of the earth are out of course.

I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.

But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.

Arise O God, judge the earth:

for thou shall inherit all nations.

My Thoughts:

Those who sit in power, and use their skills to deceive, manipulate, and cause harm to others, will be judged by God, the one and only powerful source who has the authority over all nations and people to render his judgment upon those who have wrongfully treated innocent people; while they profited and glorified themselves in riches and wealth, and powerful positions through greed and pride, having no conscious of the evil acts they committed.

There are people who are homeless, hungry, falsely imprisoned, finances destroyed, because of wickedness that lies in places where justice should have been upheld. And there are others whose characters have been assassinated by lies. Innocent people have been killed because of hate. There are some cases that have been tried in our court system, that have allowed guilty people to go free. And there have been innocent people who have been found guilty by the same court system and imprisoned.

The leaders who sit in the temples of worship, committing sin and condemning others, have no shame and no conscious of the evilness they have committed against those who they should have held a high moral standard of spiritual leadership to follow; have caused many to turn away from religion, and those who follow their leadership to sin against God, and his people, while they continue to enjoy their luxurious life styles and high positions.

Spiritual leadership, is the head of our nations. When it is corrupt, the other leadership positions are deeply affected; this weakness that is at the top, enters into other leadership positions and become rooted and spreads throughout the justice systems and into every system and branch in society, corrupting the minds of our young and older people causing them to commit wrongful acts without a conscious.
