II Thessalonians 2:1-4

II Thessalonians 2:1-4

Deception concerning the day of the Lord had entered the Thessalonian church. This deception had both shaken and troubled them in their minds. To remove this deception from them, Paul presented two events that must take place prior to the day of the Lord.

In our last study we looked at the first event, the great falling away. In this study we are looking at the man of sin, the antichrist revealing himself as God. The Bible refers to this as the abomination of desolation. Both of these events must take place prior to the day of the Lord.

There is much deception in the church today. It is quite amazing when we realize how much deception exist concerning the second coming of Christ. 

Knowing God's word and living in obedience to God's word can never be overstated. It is the only protection we have against the cunning deception of the enemy.

Chapter 2
1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,
2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.
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;
4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
