The governments and rulers of the world often use force, fear, and fealty through covetous practices that makes the word of God to none effect providing their dainties or benefits which are not only a snare but are the wages of unrighteousness, which degenerates the people[1] into merchandise and cursing their children with debt.
The Corban of Christ and His daily ministration of care through Pure Religion is the alternative that sets men free.

Rulers
The Bible often teaches about rulers but the scriptures were to set you free from bondage.
Numerous words are translated into ruler like the Hebrew word sar.[2] But there is also sarar[3]
The words "rule over" in Hebrews 13 come from the Greek word hegeomai[4]specifically means a titular leader and is not the Greek word archon meaning ruler.[5]
The apostles were like princes who were appointed a kingdom but in the sense of servant of the people.
They were not rulers who exercise authority. Nor were they to be like the rulers of the gentiles who called themselves benefactors[6] who offered the masses the free bread of legal charity which was not only a snare but was idolatry.[7]
They were to account for the people as good shepherds, care for the flock of God, and "feed His sheep" as Christ commanded.
Rulers of old
Rulers like Cain, Nimrod, Pharaoh, or Caesar are good for those who are slothful and love the wages of unrighteousness for they will ensnare the wicked and punish those who covet[8] their neighbor's goods by taking and taking and taking'" through the rulers and gods many they have chosen for themselves.
Those who reject The Way of Christ and choose to go the way of socialism and consent to the systems that have "one purse" will develop an appetite for benefits must repent in word and deed or they will eventually bite one another until they are all devoured.
When the masses develop an appetite for those dainties of rulers they will need to curtail that appetite by fasting as they will be so completely snared that eventually they will be devoured as stubble[9] because they have become accustomed to biting one another.[10] that they will cling to the darkness and hate the light even though they imagine that they are born again.
Since, we live in a cause and effect universe what we choose to do to others will undoubtedly be done to us.[11]
The people have turned over the power of choice to the ruling judges of the world, which are the gods many Paul spoke of in 1 Corinthians 8:5[12] The unwashed masses have taken then Name of the Lord in vain and have elected rulers who take and take and take[13] and make them merchandise and curse children, who appoint the gods of their world of iniquity and covetous practices which is idolatry.
Their appetite for the dainties of rulers served at the tables by altars of Balaam have been a snare bringing them under the power of many gods.[14]
Footnotes
- ↑ "The masses continue with an appetite for benefits and the habit of receiving them by way of a rule of force and violence. The people, having grown accustomed to feed at the expense of others and to depend for their livelihood on the property of others... institute the rule of violence; and now uniting their forces massacre, banish, and plunder, until they degenerate again into perfect savages and find once more a master and monarch." Polybius 150 years before Christ.

- For it is written that the tables of dainties provided by rulers of the world are a snare because they cause the masses to bite one another through government systems of legal charity which are covetous practices which are a form of fornication or adultery where the people are devoured as merchandise, curse children and are "entangled again in the yoke of bondage" with the aid of the false religion of the whore who rides the beast.

- Luke 21:34 "And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and [so] that day come upon you unawares. 35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth."
