AMPLIFIED 2015 | 2 Thessalonians 2:3 Let no one in any way deceive or entrap you, for that day will not come unless the apostasy comes first [that is, the great rebellion, the abandonment of the faith by professed Christians], and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction [the Antichrist, the one who is destined to be destroyed], [Dan 7:25; 8:25; 1 Tim 4:1] |

Bible Note: Hi cheri, Like others have pointed out, Jesus' first advent began with a baby in a stable, and continued for 33 years. He did not publically announce Himself, with all the accompanying signs, till near the very end, as He was about to comsumate His work of redemption. I would not be surprised to see the same thing at the second advent, as His work builds and builds, then He reveals Himself as He is about to consumate His judgment and close of this age. God bless! Love in Christ, Mark |
