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] |
Subject: Why do we teach otherwise? |
Bible Note: Hi CDBJ, The following scriptures refer to Jesus returning in the clouds, and as stated by Jesus takes place after the tribulation, which is before the sun and moon are darkened (4th Trumpet Rev. 8:12), "And then they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven" Matt. 24:29-31 Matt. 25:31 Matt. 26:64 Acts 1:11 Daniel 7:13,14 Rev. 11;15-19 With ref. to 2 Thess. 2:9 this clearly teaches that the antichrist must first be revealed and reign before the day of the Lord/christs coming.
