Jesus Christ won in trial. St. Paul won in trial. Almost every martyr won in trial. It’s the mark of a martyr to win in trial. Right? 

Rather, it is the opposite. The Bible commands us not to appear before the unrighteous. Can you imagine? The legal system is named as unrighteous by the Holy Bible. Yes, and it is so. For every martyr, the greatest saints, have lost a case that cost them their life. It is the mark of a saint. 

St. John Chrysostom, even after fleeing to Armenia in exile, was still pursued by those who accused him for slandering the Empress of his time. Sainthood always involves the failure of the legal system, for its face is actually the face of the devil - killing thousands if not millions of Christians in history.
