2 Thessalonians 2:7-12

7The mystery of this sin is already at work. But it cannot work effectively until the person now holding it back gets out of the way.

8Then the man of sin will be revealed and the Lord Jesus will destroy him by what he says. When the Lord Jesus comes, his appearance will put an end to this man.

9The man of sin will come with the power of Satan. He will use every kind of power, including miraculous and wonderful signs. But they will be lies.

10He will use everything that God disapproves of to deceive those who are dying, those who refused to love the truth that would save them.

11That’s why God will send them a powerful delusion so that they will believe a lie.

12Then everyone who did not believe the truth, but was delighted with what God disapproves of, will be condemned.
