NASB | 2 Thessalonians 2:7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only he who now restrains will do so until he is taken out of the way. |

Bible Question: Will the Holy Spirit be here during the tribulation period? |
Bible Answer: Since one way the Holy Spirit works is through God's people who have placed their faith and trust in Christ Jesus and the Holy Spirit seals them placing them in the body of Christ, then it appears in this verse that those believers have left and their influence for good is gone, giving lawlessness free reign to a degree allowed by the Lord. Eph 1:13 In Him, you also, after listening to the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation--having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of promise, 18 Eph 4:30 Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. |
