Thessalonians part 27

The Bible is an open book of instruction and transparency unlike all others, in the proper way of righteousness for those who will approach it with an open mind and a prayfull heart. Within it is revealed the errors of man in his adulterers, fornications and many forms of pagan worship all of which work against the acknowledge of GOD. But if we only approach it as we have been instructed by our own parents as well as a host of others, who often times misguide people among whom we find numbered with cardinals, clerics, pastors, teachers, bishops, and clergymen. Each of who promote a doctrine of mans invention in mans own theology. Then we are and will remain forever lost to GOD, its author. Why do I say it in this fashion you may ask? Because many of these people fail to acknowledge their own state of sin in death's separation, as positions of Satan and forever separated from the One True and Living GOD, Christ Jesus. After all He was and is the worlds greatest Prophet knowing both mans true beginning and end. Mans first encounter with this righteousness is scene Genesis 3:21 with the sacrifice and blood letting of the animal who also provided mans covering with its own flesh. This sacrifice was then carried out throughout the ancient of days until sometime after Noah's flood and the appearance of Jacob who became Israel, by only a few. This attitude was lost to the nation while it remained in its captivity within Egypt and is what also brought it out from among them. And is also seen in 2Corinthians 6:14-7:5 and is meant to do with those who become Christ's inheritance and He theirs, as a holy people of GOD.


2Thessalonians 2:8-12 “Then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of His mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of His coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. For this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.”


The Weymouth New Testament states this passage this way: “Then the Lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will sweep away with the tempest of His anger, and utterly overwhelm by the awful splendour of His Coming.
The appearing of the Lawless one will be attended by various miracles and tokens and delusive marvels---for so Satan works--- and by every kind of wicked deception for those who are on the way to perdition because they did not welcome into their hearts the love of the truth, so that they might be saved. And for this reason God sends them a misleading influence that they may believe the lie; in order that all may come under judgement who have refused to believe the truth and have taken pleasure in unrighteousness.”

 
This confirms what I have said above. Here again the translator or publisher has added, “Even him.” Leaving this out we find this, “Then shall that Wicked be revealed, whose coming is after the working of Satan in power, signs, and lying wonders in deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish, because they receive not the love for Truth that they may be saved, whom the LORD will consume by the breath, spoken Word and destroy in the Brightness of His coming.”

This maybe a good place to reveal what my wife heard early this morning while still a sleep on her bed, which is this, “You can't MAKE the fit, you have to SEE the fit." Like when I am putting the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle together I will take the time to layout the pieces according to their placement. What I mean is this, I place all the border pieces in one area and then position them accordingly to make the frame, then I'll start looking for simular colors of objects and place them together and from there I'll fill in the voids. The Holy Spirit does the samething with me in the use of scriptures, this He started doing sometime after He cleared my vision and perception of the word. This all agrees with what the LORD told me and those sitting at our kitchen table back in 1985 when He said, 'that we would be able to put the scriptures together,' this is the seeing the fit which brings understanding. Understanding to the revelation and often called Light of Christ, as the Living Word the word of Truth in which, Eternal Life exsists. This Jesus said that we are to eat and drink as if eating bread and drinking water. Water being one element used in many ways and having many meanings such as washing, or as drink, look in Mark 9:41 and John 3:5 to see other uses for water. One other point is the use of the word “saved” at the end of verse 10, this saved can be both healed and to save from the judgment that is about to come upon all in rebellion, in apposition to Christ's work.

Who are counted among the wicked and lawless ones to be revealed? Those who exhibit the characteristics of verse 4 and all that was revealed there. What is meant by the term “Even him,” who was interjected by the translaters? One translation states this, “that is, the one whose presence is in accord with the activities of Satan, with all power and attesting miracles and false wonders, and with every deception of wickedness for those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth so as to be saved.” (in the NASB)
