II Thessalonians 2:1-3

II Thessalonians 2:1-3

Paul now transitions from prayer to the issue of concern, the purpose of his letter. The Thessalonian church was troubled and shaken about the doctrine concerning the second coming of Jesus. They thought that the rapture had passed them by and they were living in the day of the Lord.

Paul dispels this confusion that has entered their church by laying out to things that must absolutely happen prior to the day of the Lord. First, there must be a falling away from the faith. After this the man of sin will be revealed as he presents himself as God to be worshipped. Neither of these things had happened. 

In this study, we do a deep dive on what he falling away is; how we can identify it and how we can avoid being a parts of this terrible movement

3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
