Bible Question:
What is the Spirit of Delusion? Where would I find scripture explaining this spirit? HeirofGod |
Bible Answer: Hi herrubies, Welcome to the forum. If you have a profile or update to offer, please do that. I agree with EdB that the Scriptures do not speak of a spirit of delusion. And certainly in the view of capitalizing Deity there would be no Spirit of Delusion. Our God is spoken of as the Spirit of truth in the Scriptures. However, the name of Satan is capitalized because it is a name given him. And he is spoken of in some translations as the Lawless One. The Scripture that I would offer to you explaining this spirit would be 2 Thessalonians 2:8. 2 Thess 2:8, KJ, "And then shall the Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:" 2 Thess 2:8, NASB, "And then that lawless one will be revealed whom the Lord will slay with the breath of His mouth and bring to an end by the appearance of His coming," I personally would go with the NASB and the "lawless one" who is Satan. 2 Thessalonians 2:4 says that he is even going to display himself as being God, but of course he is not, although he is spoken of as the god of this world. But we as believers are looking for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to (Him). 2 Thess 2:1. There are other Scriptures: Delude: Colossians 2:4, James 1:22 Deluded: Isaiah 19:13, Isaiah 47:10 Delusion: Jeremiah 10:3, 8 But the Lord is the true God: He is the living God and the everlasting (King).
