2 Thessalonians 2:1-4

1Now we request you, 1brethren, with regard to the 2 3coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our 4gathering together to Him,

2that you not be quickly shaken from your 5composure or be disturbed either by a 6spirit or a 7 8message or a 9letter as if from us, to the effect that 10the day of the Lord 11has come.

3 12Let no one in any way deceive you, for it will not come unless the 13 14apostasy comes first, and the 15man of lawlessness is revealed, the 16son of destruction,

4who opposes and exalts himself above 17 18every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, 19displaying himself as being God.
