Bible Question: What does God mean by "The Rebellion"? Man has been in rebellion since Adam and Eve. What is significant about "The Rebellion" that is spoken about in 2 Thessalonians 2:1-4? |
Bible Answer: The subject here is the second coming of Christ, the "Gathering back to Christ" responding to those telling the Christian community that the second coming had already come! He makes it pretty clear that it had not come and will not do so until some other events transpire. He says that the "Day of the Lord" will NOT come until satan set himself up as God in Temple of Jerusalum calling himself God, claiming to be God! Something to watch out for. |
