When The Door Slams
The man of lawlessness will be revealed, but the Lord Jesus
will kill him with the breath of his mouth and
destroy him by the splendor of his coming.
2 Thessalonians 2:8
Undoubtedly, The Most powerful human who will ever set foot on earth (apart from my Lord Jesus) will be this one: the man of lawlessness. Theologians identify him as the Antichrist, the one who will appear in the last days of the world. What will he be like, according to this passage?
Think about this: He will be lawless. When the door slams. That doesn't necessarily mean he will be a lawbreaker. Rather, he will be a law unto himself. Whatever he says to the world will be law, no matter how nasty, cruel, or crazy it might be. His wish will be the world's command.
Its people will bow in submission to his every demand an will be mesmerized by his power. From other Scripture passages we know that this person will possess supernatural ability to do miracles, show signs in the heavens, and demonstrate all kinds of amazing power. Most of the people alive at this time will worship him as God.
Nonetheless, he is simply an importer. And he will be destroyed with hardly a fight when Jesus returns. You can trust too, if you're around at that time, that Jesus our Lord will rescue you from this importer's deception and entrapment. Look to the Lord, and you will find him faithful and true.
Ask the Spirit to search your heart and reveal any areas of confessed sin. Acknowledge these to the Lord and thank Him for His forgiveness.
