The Wicked One

2Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered together to be with him: I beg you, my friends,G1161G2065G5209G80G5228G3952G2257G2962G2424G5547G2532G2257G1997G1909G846
2not to be so easily confused in your thinking or upset by the claim that the Day of the Lord has come. Perhaps it is thought that we said this while prophesying or preaching, or that we wrote it in a letter.G1519G5209G4531G3361G5030G4531G575G3563G3383G2360G3383G1223G4151G3383G1223G3056G3383G1223G1992G5613G1223G2257G5613G3754G2250G5547G1764
3Do not let anyone deceive you in any way. For the Day will not come until the final Rebellion takes place and the Wicked One appears, who is destined to hell.G1818G3361G5100G1818G5209G2596G3367G5158G3754G3362G2064G646G4412G2532G444G266G601G5207G684
4He will oppose every so-called god or object of worship and will put himself above them all. He will even go in and sit down in God's Temple and claim to be God.G3588G480G2532G5229G1909G3956G3004G2316G2228G4574G5620G846G5613G2316G2523G1519G3485G2316G584G1438G3754G2076G2316
5Don't you remember? I told you all this while I was with you.G3421G3756G3754G5607G2089G4314G5209G3004G5213G5023
6Yet there is something that keeps this from happening now, and you know what it is. At the proper time, then, the Wicked One will appear.G2532G3568G1492G2722G1519G846G601G1722G1438G2540
7The Mysterious Wickedness is already at work, but what is going to happen will not happen until the one who holds it back is taken out of the way.G1063G3466G458G1754G2235G1754G3440G737G2722G2193G1096G1537G3319
8Then the Wicked One will be revealed, but when the Lord Jesus comes, he will kill him with the breath from his mouth and destroy him with his dazzling presence.G2532G5119G601G459G601G3739G2962G355G4151G846G4750G2532G2673G2015G846G3952
9The Wicked One will come with the power of Satan and perform all kinds of false miracles and wonders,G3739G3952G2076G2596G1753G4567G1722G3956G1411G2532G4592G2532G5579G5059
10and use every kind of wicked deceit on those who will perish. They will perish because they did not welcome and love the truth so as to be saved.G2532G1722G3956G539G93G1722G622G473G3739G1209G3756G26G225G1519G846G4982
11And so God sends the power of error to work in them so that they believe what is false.G2532G5124G1223G2316G3992G846G1753G4106G1519G846G4100G5579
12The result is that all who have not believed the truth, but have taken pleasure in sin, will be condemned.G2443G3956G2919G3588G4100G3361G225G235G2106G1722G93

You Are Chosen for Salvation

13We must thank God at all times for you, friends, you whom the Lord loves. For God chose you as the first to be saved by the Spirit's power to make you his holy people and by your faith in the truth.G1161G2249G3784G2168G3842G2316G4012G5216G80G25G5259G2962G3754G2316G138G575G746G138G5209G1519G4991G1722G38G4151G2532G4102G225
14God called you to this through the Good News we preached to you; he called you to possess your share of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.G1519G3739G2564G5209G1223G2257G2098G1519G4047G1391G2257G2962G2424G5547
15So then, our friends, stand firm and hold on to those truths which we taught you, both in our preaching and in our letter.G686G3767G80G4739G2532G2902G3862G3739G1321G1535G1223G3056G1535G1223G2257G1992
16May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and in his grace gave us unfailing courage and a firm hope,G1161G2257G2962G2424G5547G846G2532G2316G2532G2257G3962G3588G25G2248G2532G1325G166G3874G2532G18G1680G1722G5485
17encourage you and strengthen you to always do and say what is good.G3870G5216G2588G2532G4741G5209G1722G3956G18G3056G2532G2041
