CWFI Devotional Bible Guide: Lesson Two the End of the World

Verse 1. Paul instructs the Thessalonian concerning the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ and the time when the saints will gather together and meet him.(Note: Jesus has several returns: #1. Before the tribulation, and #2.after the tribulation when he closes the battle of the last World War at Ar-ma-ged'don.

Verse 2. Do not get upset, discouraged, or be afraid if you hear rumors about the day of the Lord has come. You may have heard a rumor or someone might have prophesied that the day of the Lord has come, don't be fooled by their message. (Note: The Day of the Lord means: judgment day, when the Lord Jesus Christ will judge sinners. This is the end, but it hasn't come yet. Paul instructs the Thessalonian it has not come yet).

Verse 3 Do not be tricked. The Last Day; the day of the Lord WILL NOT come until:

#1. The Great rebellion happens.

#2. The Anti-Christ: the New World Order leader and dictator enters into

#3. rebuilt temple in Jerusalem

#4. sits down in the temple

#5. and declares himself God.

#6. The Anti-Christ; son of perdition will rebel against anything dealing with or pertaining to God.

(Note: The final World dictator is against the God of Israel and against Israel itself and its people. Did you not know that the first time Jesus came were for the salvation of the Jews and Jerusalem? But the Jews rejected him and wanted him crucified just as scriptures predicted. But because the Jews rejected their Messiah, it opened the door for Non-Jews to be saved. The salvation period of the Gentiles. We are in the Dispensation of the Gentiles A.D., Jesus will close the A.D. era when he reigns for a millennium. But while we are in the Dispensation of Grace and the Gentiles, it's time for salvation. Now is the time to be saved. The Anti-Christ isn't concerned about any-other religions, god's, statues, or any-other world denominations, because they will crumble before him. The Anti-Christ WILL conquer all societies, religions, gods, doctrine and etc, but he WILL NOT be able to conquer the God of Israel. All religions will become one, governments around the globe will become one, the world currency will become one, in so much as buying and selling will be impossible without his control. He will make the world worship his image, EXCEPT God's people and their God, Je-ho-'vah. God's salvation plan and redemption through Jesus Christ is the end-time message; the Covenant with Israel, the Dispensation of grace, and the covenant of the Blood of the Lamb will outlast any false religion and teaching. The bottom-line is that the Anti-Christ in the end-time can't conquer the real God, and he is angry. All doctrines will crumble at his dictatorship of the World EXCEPT the Holy Bible, God's people and their faithfulness to him will sustain their soul. This will cause the Anti-Christ to cancel a peace treaty with Israel. Canceling a peace treaty with Israel isn't anything new, but that treaty will be the final World power broken promise. But Yah-weh will keep his promise of a New Jerusalem, New Heaven, and a New Earth. God will keep his promises).

#7. And the Anti-Christ; son of perdition; son of hell, Satan's last opponent of the Lord Jesus Christ, Christians, and Jews will put himself above all things that people worship.

Verse 6 What is withholding the evil one from coming right now?

Verse 7 Who is the one that "letteth will let?" The answer to both questions is the same answer in Ephesians 4:30. The Holy Spirit is the One that is restraining the Anti-Christ until the appointed time. The spirit of the Anti-Christ has been around for centuries, but the right time and right one isn't. For the Holy Spirit prevents the arrival until the right moment. When that release comes he will swift in to ruler-ship. Quick and suddenly. The force of the evil one was present in the garden of Eden. When the time is granted the Holy Spirit will restrain him no longer, then the evil one will seek to conquer the World for a season.

Verse 8 Then that Wicked, secret power of evil will appear and the false prophet will appear. And the Lord Jesus Christ returns to destroy the Man of Evil, the false prophet and the Anti-Christ.

#8. The false prophet with the Anti-Christ will perform signs and lying wonders that will captivate the hearts and minds of people in order to deceive. The false prophet will show false miracles of lies. Every deception trick will be used from their arson to deceive humans to follow the New World Order. The false prophet arrives to aid the Anti-Christ with power, false doctrine, tricks, and deception miracles. The World dictatorship and the One World religion will have the signs, wonders, miracles, and tricks the Worlds has never before seen. The World will stand at amazement of the wonders. (Note: You cannot worship anything without surrendering your mind to it. The mind and the=worship=offerings and submission. This World will be taught to worship the end-time doctrine, religion, currency, image, politics, and the New World Order.

#9. The final end-time description is the "strong delusion." The strong delusion the God sends will separate the good and the evil. It's a God sent strong delusion that parts ways. You are either hot or cold, good or evil, happy or sad, tricked and deceived, or walking in the truth, lost or saved. There is NO MIDDLE ground to stand on. You will choose who you will serve. The judgment day separation will declare what you stand on, the truth or a lie. You can escape the turmoil of the end-time tribulation by accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord today.

(Note: Consider the evil trinity mentioned in II Thessalonian 2-17 Verse the Godhead Trinity in II Thessalonian 2:1-17:

The Evil Trinity

#1. The Anti-Christ-son of perdition, the opposer of God, exalts himself above God II Thess. 2:3

#2. The False Prophet, performs works of Satan with signs and lying wonders (deception) II Thess. 2:8,9

#3. Satan, gives his power of the earth to Anti-Christ with

a. signs
b. lying
c. wonders
d. deception of irreligious in them that are lost. II Thess 2:9,10

These are the reasons for the evil trinity.

The Godhead Trinity

II Thess 2:11 God sends a strong delusion to the deceived so that they can make up their mind whom they will serve, evil or good. But the delusion only affects those who choose evil and accepts, and believes the deception of the Evil One. Confusion will seize. Either be hot or cold. Evil or good. No borderline.........
