1NowG1161 we beseechG2065 youG4771, brethrenG80, byG5228 the comingG3588G3952 of ourG1473 LordG3588G2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, andG2532 by ourG1473 gathering togetherG1997 untoG1909 himG846, 2ThatG1519 yeG4771 beG4531 notG3361 soonG5030 shakenG4531 inG575 mindG3588G3563, orG3383 be troubledG2360, neitherG3383 byG1223 spiritG4151, norG3383 byG1223 wordG3056, norG3383 byG1223 letterG1992 asG5613 fromG1223 usG1473, asG5613 thatG3754 the dayG3588G2250 of ChristG3588G5547 is at handG1764.

3LetG1818 noG3361 manG5100 deceiveG1818 youG4771 byG2596 anyG3367 meansG5158: forG3754 that day shall not come, exceptG1437 there comeG2064 a falling awayG3588G646 firstG4412, andG2532 that manG3588G444 of sinG3588G266 be revealedG601, the sonG3588G5207 of perditionG3588G684; 4Who opposethG3588G480 andG2532 exalteth himselfG5229 aboveG1909 allG3956 that is calledG3004 GodG2316, orG2228 that is worshippedG4574; so thatG5620 heG846 asG5613 GodG2316 sittethG2523 inG1519 the templeG3588G3485 of GodG3588G2316, shewingG584 himselfG1438 thatG3754 he isG1510 GodG2316. 5Remember yeG3421 notG3756, thatG3754, when I wasG1510 yetG2089 withG4314 youG4771, I toldG3004 youG4771 these thingsG3778? 6AndG2532 nowG3568 ye knowG1492 what withholdethG2722 thatG1519 heG846 might be revealedG601 inG1722 hisG1438 timeG2540. 7ForG1063 the mysteryG3466 of iniquityG3588G458 dothG1754 alreadyG2235 workG1754: onlyG3440 he whoG2722 nowG737 lettethG2722 will let, untilG2193 he be takenG1096 out ofG1537 the wayG3319. 8AndG2532 thenG5119 shallG601 that WickedG459 be revealedG601, whomG3739 the LordG3588G2962 shall consumeG355 with the spiritG3588G4151 of hisG846 mouthG3588G4750, andG2532 shall destroyG2673 with the brightnessG3588G2015 of hisG846 comingG3588G3952: 9Even him, whoseG3739 comingG3588G3952 isG1510 afterG2596 the workingG1753 of SatanG3588G4567 withG1722 allG3956 powerG1411 andG2532 signsG4592 andG2532 lyingG5579 wondersG5059, 10AndG2532 withG1722 allG3956 deceivablenessG539 of unrighteousnessG3588G93 inG1722 them that perishG622; becauseG473 they receivedG1209 notG3756 the loveG3588G26 of the truthG3588G225, thatG1519 theyG846 might be savedG4982. 11AndG2532 forG1223 thisG3778 causeG1223 GodG3588G2316 shall sendG3992 themG846 strongG1753 delusionG4106, thatG1519 theyG846 should believeG4100 a lieG3588G5579: 12ThatG2443 theyG2919 allG3956 might be damnedG2919 who believedG4100 notG3361 the truthG3588G225, butG235 had pleasureG2106 inG1722 unrighteousnessG3588G93.

13ButG1161 weG1473 are boundG3784 to give thanksG2168 alwayG3842 to GodG3588G2316 forG4012 youG4771, brethrenG80 belovedG25 ofG5259 the LordG2962, becauseG3754 GodG3588G2316 hathG138 fromG575 the beginningG746 chosenG138 youG4771 toG1519 salvationG4991 throughG1722 sanctificationG38 of the SpiritG4151 andG2532 beliefG4102 of the truthG225: 14WhereuntoG1519 he calledG2564 youG4771 byG1223 ourG1473 gospelG3588G2098, toG1519 the obtainingG4047 of the gloryG1391 of ourG1473 LordG3588G2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547. 15

ThereforeG3767, brethrenG80, stand fastG4739, andG2532 holdG2902 the traditionsG3588G3862 whichG3739 ye have been taughtG1321, whetherG1535 byG1223 wordG3056, orG1535 ourG1473 epistleG1992. 16NowG1161 ourG1473 LordG3588G2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 himselfG846, andG2532 GodG3588G2316, evenG2532 ourG1473 FatherG3962, which hath lovedG25 usG1473, andG2532 hath givenG1325 us everlastingG166 consolationG3874 andG2532 goodG18 hopeG1680 throughG1722 graceG5485, 17ComfortG3870 yourG4771 heartsG3588G2588, andG2532 stablishG4741 youG4771 inG1722 everyG3956 goodG18 wordG3056 andG2532 workG2041.
