2 Thessalonians 2:10-13

Christian Standard Bible

¹⁰ and with every wicked deception among those who are perishing. They perish because they did not accept the love of the truth and so be saved.^{(A) 11} For this reason God sends them a strong delusion so that they will believe the lie, ¹² so that all will be condemned^(B)—those who did not believe^(C) the truth but delighted in unrighteousness.

Stand Firm

¹³ But we ought to thank God always for you, brothers and sisters loved by the Lord, because from the beginning^[a] God has chosen^(D) you for salvation through sanctification^(E) by the Spirit and through belief in the truth.
