THE SIGNS AND WONDERS MAN (4 of 8)

II Thessalonians 2:3-9
5/28/97
These verses introduce to us the signs and
wonders man. Let's read about him in our Scripture.
In this particular chapter the Apostle Paul highlights
two events that are given to us on God's prophetic
calendar. He talks in verse 3 about the apostasy
which will conclude the age of the church -- the age
of grace. And the appearance of the Antichrist which
will begin the day of the Lord -- the great
tribulation. There was misinformation being given to
these young converts about the return of the Lord and
there were those who were teaching that the Great
Tribulation had already come and that they as
believers were going through the Great Tribulation.
Paul is writing to correct this misconception and give
them some of the key points for them to be aware of
that will indicate when the Lord will come and when
this, in particular, Great Tribulation will occur.
The falling away in verse 3, the apostasy we
talked about in our previous message, is that period
of time when there will be a falling away from the
faith. There will be those in the midst of
Christendom who will deny the basic doctrines of the
Christian faith. There's a great deal that could be
said about that. We talked about it a little bit last
week. But, our emphasis tonight is on that second
statement in verse 3 where he says, "And that man of
sin be revealed, the son of perdition."
Here is a prediction in the Bible of a
personality that will appear that will be known as the
man of sin. He is indicated by other descriptions in
the Word of God. In the book of Daniel he is referred
to as "the little horn." And also as "the prince that
shall come." He is mentioned in the book of the
Revelation as "the rider on a white horse." And also
as "the beast out of the sea." John, the Beloved
Disciple, in his first letter ...
