不法的人必要显露

弟兄们,关于我们主耶稣基督的再来,和我们到他那里聚集的事,我们求你们: 无论有灵、有话、有冒我们的名的书信,说主的日子现在到了,你们都不要轻易动心,也不要惊慌。 不要让人用任何方法迷惑了你们,因为主的日子来到以前,必定有背道的事,并且那不法的人,就是那沉沦之子,必定显露出来。 他抵挡 神,抬举自己,高过一切称为神或受人敬拜的,甚至坐在 神的殿中,自称为 神。 我还在你们那里的时候,曾经把这些事告诉你们,你们不记得吗? 现在你们也知道,那箝制他,使他到了时候才可以显露出来的是甚么。 因为那不法的潜力已经发动,只是现在有一个箝制他的在那里,直等到那箝制解除了, 那时,这不法的人必要显露出来。主耶稣要用自己口中的气除掉他,以自己再来所显现的光辉消灭他。 这不法的人来到,是照着撒但的行动,行各样的异能奇迹和荒诞的事, 10 并且在那些沉沦的人身上,行各样不义的欺诈,因为他们不领受爱真理的心,使他们得救。 11 因此, 神就使错谬的思想运行在他们当中,让他们相信虚谎, 12 叫所有不信真理倒喜爱不义的人,都被定罪。

站立得稳持守信仰

13 主所爱的弟兄们,我们应该常常为你们感谢 神,因为他从起初就拣选了你们,借着圣灵成圣的工作,和你们对真道的信心,使你们可以得救。 14 因此, 神借着我们所传的福音呼召你们,使你们得着我们主耶稣基督的荣耀。 15 所以弟兄们,你们要站立得稳;你们所领受的教训,无论是我们口传的,或是信上写的,都要持守。 16 愿我们的主耶稣基督自己,和那爱我们、开恩把永远的安慰和美好的盼望赐给我们的父 神, 17 安慰你们的心,并且在一切善行善言上,坚定你们。

Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,

That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.

Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;

Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?

And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.

For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.

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:

Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,

10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

13 But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:

14 Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

15 Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.

16 Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace,

17 Comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work.

The Man of Lawlessness

Now we ask you, brothers and sisters, concerning the coming of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah and our gathering together to Him, not to get shaken out of your mind or disturbed—either by a spirit or a word or a letter as if through us—as though the Day of the Lord[a] has come. Let no one deceive you in any way, for the Day will not come unless the rebellion comes first and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the one destined to be destroyed. [b] He opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he sits in the Temple of God, proclaiming himself that he is God.[c]

Don’t you remember that when I was still with you I was telling you these things? And you know what now holds back, for him to be revealed in his own time. For the mystery of lawlessness is already operating; only there is one who holds back just now, until he is taken out of the way. Then the lawless one will be revealed. The Lord Yeshua will slay him with the breath of His mouth and wipe him out with the appearance of His coming. [d] The coming of the lawless one is connected to the activity of satan, with all power and signs and false wonders, 10 and with every kind of wicked deception toward those who are perishing. They perish because they did not accept the love of the truth so as to be saved. 11 For this reason God sends them a delusional force, to lead them to believe what is false, [e] 12 so that they may be judged—all those who did not believe the truth but delighted in wickedness.[f]

Firstfruits of Salvation

13 But we should always give thanks to God for you, brothers and sisters loved by the Lord, because God chose you as firstfruits for salvation[g] through sanctification by the Ruach and belief in the truth. 14 He called you to this salvation through our proclaiming the Good News, for you to gain the glory of our Lord Yeshua the Messiah. 15 So then, brothers and sisters, stand firm and hold on to the traditions which you were taught, whether by word of mouth or by our letter.

16 Now may our Lord Yeshua the Messiah Himself and God our Father, who loved us and by grace gave us eternal comfort and good hope, 17 comfort and strengthen your hearts in every good deed and word.
