2 Thessalonians 2:2-4

New Century Version

² Do not become easily upset in your thinking or afraid if you hear that the day of the Lord has already come. Someone may have said this in a prophecy or in a message or in a letter as if it came from us. ³ Do not let anyone fool you in any way. That day of the Lord will not come until the turning away^[a] from God happens and the Man of Evil,^[b] who is on his way to hell, appears. ⁴ He will be against and put himself above any so-called god or anything that people worship. And that Man of Evil will even go into God’s Temple and sit there and say that he is God.
