In the story of the rich man and Lazarus, the rich man was condemned for his failure to act justly, that is, he was condemned for his failure to do what he had the ability to do and did not do. And these will go off to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life. Jesus is innocent life and is of course the one exception. He had a special mission to accomplish in life which would not have succeeded if He had allowed Himself to be defended. Everyone is guilty who permits the innocent to be killed and sets guilty murderers free.
Cowards are first to be mentioned for condemnation.
Bishops and priests are not excluded from suffering these consequences. Anyone who believes that obedience should be given to any bishop or to civil law in preference to love of God, or to love of neighbor as oneself, is far from the gates of Heaven. Many otherwise sincere Catholics have a simplistic acceptance , unrealistic as it often is, of the authority of their own bishop whether he is in conformity with the formal teaching of his Church or not. The above seems to be the more logical reasons for the gross negligence in regard to, and for the lack of enforcement of, Church discipline and teachings. While the majority of the hierarchy may not be involved in the above sins, they easily could be involved with attachment to one or more of a variety of human weaknesses.
