The Man of Lawlessness - 2 Thessalonians 2:1-12

The Man of Lawlessness. The Beast from the Earth (2nd Beast). The Antichrist. The False Prophet. Are these different titles for, or pictures of the same person/entity? How does the appearance of the "Man of Lawlessness" relate to the end times and Jesus' Second Coming? What is holding him back? Who has control of the timing for all this? We will discuss this as well as…

• Why does the Lord use apocalyptic language? Picture Language?
• Jesus main goal for the end times is that we are not deceived.
• How did God "hide things" in the Old Testament? How does that relate to "fragmented prophecy?"
• We will likely NEVER fully decipher all of the apocaplyptic images in Revelation and 2 Thessalonians.
• The rapture is not mentioned in the Bible. I challenge anyone to show it to me.
• It is of great strategic and tactical advantage for Satan to confuse believers about the end times.
• The Office of the Papacy is the Antichrist in its present form.
• God used the confusion the Thessalonians had about the end times to teach all generations.
• Paul had apparently taught the Thessalonians a good deal about Jesus' Second coming while he was with them.
• How much time do you spend thinking? How often do you read? Do it. It helps you think.
• The word "Antichrist" does not appear in the Book of Revelation.
• I am not likely to understand all the Bible teaches about the end times. BUT, if I keep studying and praying, I am not likely to be deceived!
• "Anti" from Antichrist means both "against" and "in the place of."
• The official teaching of Roman Catholicism says you cannot be saved without the Pope.
• The Papacy fulfills all the marks for the Antichrist that Scripture lays out.
• The "Temple of God" Paul mentions is the Church. Christendom had walked away from the Temple in Jerusalem and it was destroyed in 70 A.D.
• Anyone who trusts in Jesus as their Savior from sin is saved. That includes members of the Roman Catholic Church.
• Roman Catholicism has four equal normative (official and binding) sources of Doctrine. (1) the Bible (2) Church Councils (3) Church Tradition (4) The Pope when he speaks "ex cathedra" (from the Chair makes an official proclamation.
• Roman Catholicism officially damns to hell anyone who believes that you are saved by Grace alone through faith alone.
• The Papacy is the "placeholder" for the Man of Lawlessness. The Man of Lawlessness is THE Antichrist. The Papacy is a watered down version.
• The Roman Catholic Church and especially the Jesuits are into "Alien visitation" and talk about what might come as being a more full revelation of truth.
• The Vatican has a telescope in Arizona that constantly looks for Alien Activity. It is run by the Jesuits. It is called "Lucifer." I am not making that up.
• The Rebellion has to come before Jesus' Return.
• Some heavenly force (Michael?) is restraining him.
• There is no Battle of Armageddon. The forces of hell align and form their battle lines, Jesus appears and…it is OVER!
• UFO's and Alien technology is from the Lords of Darkness.
• And MUCH, Much More.
