2 Thess 2:8: And then shall that wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming.
By that then, deception in false worship to the wrong messiah is guaranteed if you plan to be there for that event. The first one coming to sit in the temple in Jerusalem will be the "son of perdition"
2 Thess 2:3-4: Read All.
For believers on our Savior Jesus Christ who live in Jerusalem at that time, they might want to heed our Lord's warning of that future event, and get out of that area of Judea to flee to the mountains
Matt 24:16: Then let them which be in Judea flee into the mountains.
If some think this event is already history and occurred in 69 A.D. with the Romans, then I implore you to keep studying on this matter from The Word. Isa 29:4 And thou shalt be brought down, and shalt speak out of the ground, and thy speech shall be low out of the dust, and thy voice shall be, as of one that hath a familiar spirit, out of the ground, and thy speech shall whisper out of the dust. Recall from Isaiah Chapters 2 & 8 about those who seek to idols and the counsel of sorcerers and soothsayers (enchanter, practitioner of magic). That's what many of the leaders of both the 'house of Judah' and the "house of Israel' (ten tribes) were heeding; and many from both 'houses' are still heeding that today. That old serpent Satan;
Rev.12:9,
Was doomed to the dust, and that false working is of him...
Ezek.8
...For a close-up on those types of practices with both 'houses' of Israel being guilty.
Ezek.23.
This is especially why Ariel (Jerusalem) is destined for a final destruction with the second coming of our LORD Jesus. Satan's children have just about taken Ariel over; and are preparing for their 'rock' to sit there in place of our Lord Jesus Christ the KING. If you're a believer on our ROCK the Father through His Son, then are you sure you want to be there in Jerusalem for this coming destruction by The LORD? Isa 29:5 Moreover the multitude of thy strangers shall be like small dust, and the multitude of the terrible ones shall be as chaff that passeth away: yea, it shall be at an instant suddenly. Do you remember from 1 Thessalonians 5 that our Lord's coming will catch many off guard as a thief breaking in at night? - 1 Thess 5:2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. |
