Daily Devotional. 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. Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the Love of the Truth, THAT THEY MIGHT BE SAVED. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, THAT THEY SHOULD BELIEVE A LIE: THAT THEY ALL MIGHT BE DAMNED who believed not the Truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4,9-12. These verses cover all the time on Earth of the Man of Sin, the Antichrist. Here’s an illustration of the “revealing” of the Man of Sin. When a brand new make or model of automobile is being Presented to the public “officially” for the first time, it’s at a big, well publicized flashy event where the silk cover is removed from this new car for people to see for the first time with lots of pictures and many “Oohhhs and aah’s” of “surprise” at this new, “never before seen” automobile. Yet, in all this fanfare, there are some not surprised at all. This small group of people designed and built this car, and with great secrecy and deception, tried to hide “the truth” as this car was Road tested privately, and then brought to the showroom for the big “Reveal”. THEN the public can have “all the car they want”. Christians WILL recognize all the subtle “advances” of this new upcoming politician as he prepares to present himself to the public as “The Saviour” the Jews, and lost mankind, are all looking for. He’ll be widely received and will be invited to the dedication of the new Jewish Temple where he will present himself, (drumroll here please), AS GOD!!! As “the sheet” is pulled off, he’ll not, Be Blessed.
