Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on 2 Thessalonians 2:3-12

3Let no one deceive you in any way, for it will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness— the son of destruction— is revealed.
4He will oppose and exalt himself above every so-called god or object of worship. So he will seat himself in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God.
5Do you not remember that I told you these things while I was still with you?
6And you know what is now restraining him, so that he may be revealed at the proper time.
7For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work, but the one who now restrains it will continue until he is taken out of the way.
8And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will slay with the breath of His mouth and annihilate by the majesty of His arrival.
9The coming of the lawless one will be accompanied by the working of Satan, with every kind of power, sign, and false wonder,
10and with every wicked deception directed against those who are perishing, because they refused the love of the truth that would have saved them.
11For this reason God will send them a powerful delusion so that they believe the lie,
12in order that judgment may come upon all who have disbelieved the truth and delighted in wickedness.
— 2 Thessalonians 2:3-12
