2Th 2:7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
The mystery of iniquity- the mystery of sin had begun way back then and it was as real then as it is today. Why don't we believe the Apostles? Why don't we believe the word of God given to them through the Holy Spirit? Why do we choose to ignore the truth in favor of our lies? Because sin has clouded our minds and stained our hearts black.
Sin will continue until it is taken away, it will NOT disappear of its own accord. Sin will not leave quietly, willingly. Sin will need to be taken out of the way, sin and those ruled by sin from the greatest to the least.
2Th 2:8 And 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:
That WICKED revealed.
That WICKED will be consume, destroyed by our SAVIOR, and until our SAVIOR returns sin will continue with all it's horrors. The wicked controlled by sin from the impersonator of Christ himself, to the beast whose mark will be placed upon all who do not love the LORD of TRUTH, will continue working. He works today and will work endlessly, tirelessly until he can work no more!
2Th 2:9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
HIM- whose coming is AFTER the WORKING of SATAN- with ALL POWER and SIGNS and LYING WONDERS!
This person who will come is REAL! And it will be a PERSON who will be alive when CHRIST returns! They could not be destroyed if they did not exist. This MAN will do the WORK of SATAN! Do we believe in a person like this or have we regulated them to the movies and books, to fables and horror stories? We have, haven't we? Seriously, we've put this evil person on the big screen and we watch him commit atrocities and sometimes we watch him be defeated and other times we watch him continue to live on much to the delight of those who want the sequels where this evil wrecks havoc with people in ways we don't want to believe could ever truly be real. Satan has done his work well, and we could expect no less from him. He's got most people totally deceived.
2Th 2:10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
ANYONE - that include YOU who are reading this, it includes ME who is writing this, and it also includes everyone else in the whole entire world- anyone who does NOT receive the LOVE OF THE TRUTH, will be DECEIVED by UNRIGHTEOUSNESS, and NOT SAVED!!!!!!! Only those who LOVE THE TRUTH WILL BE SAVED!!!!!!!
Loving the truth. How unfortunate it is that so many would much rather believe lies, comfortable, familiar lies that keep their lives filled with equilibrium that they rely upon. The truth is hard hitting and does not wait for us to feel comfort, our comfort is not mandatory to the truth! Yet we think it is. We think we have to like what we hear, that it has to be soothing to our ears, but it doesn't! We are DECEIVED by Satan! Eve liked the way the fruit looked upon that tree, it was pretty. Eve loved the soft, alluring voice speaking to her. Eve felt comfortable in the presence of evil itself and enjoyed the conversation. People can argue that Eve didn't know it was evil- ARGUE all they like because the point is, WE DON'T RECOGNIZE IT ANYMORE THAN SHE DID! We listen to the soothing voice, we take in the lies and we like it! We follow that voice and we are DECEIVED! Why? Because WE DO NOT WANT TO LOVE THE TRUTH! We choose to love the truth! This is a CHOICE we make. It's not automatic to a single person! The TRUTH! We say those words in court- the truth and nothing but the truth- but SO MANY lies are spoken and believed.
2Th 2:11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
2Th 2:12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
When our conscience feels the prick of unease, when we sense that tiniest bit of something not being quite right, we NEED to listen to it! We need to comprehend that sin in all its PLEASURE will lead to DEATH everlasting and eternal! That PLEASURE we have in UNRIGHTEOUSNESS will KILL us eternally! No one is going to tell you that sin isn't fun and pleasurable, that'd be a huge lie! Sin is wonderful fun and great pleasure, but it's like poisoned icing placed upon poisoned cake. It looks wonderful, it tastes delicious, but eating it will ultimately kill you. You might LOVE every bite of that cake, it could be the best cake you've ever had the pleasure of eating, but it will end up killing you. Don't believe anyone who tells you that sin isn't pleasurable, that you can't find pleasure in unrighteousness. You can find all sorts of pleasure in sin. You can also deny yourself all kinds of pleasure and your sin will be found in your self-righteousness. We HAVE to ONLY believe in the TRUTH, not the lies that Satan wants us to believe. Go to GOD, go to CHRIST'S WORD, read it, study it, live it, love it! If you don't love it now LEARN to LOVE, CHOOSE to love it!
