Revelation 13:11And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. I would place this as among the most important verses found in the Bible. Take a moment and read Revelation 13 and get the context if you cannot recall the chapter and verse. Note the lowercase lamb and the two horns. I want you to think: Luke 1:69And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David; John 1:36And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God! He looks just like a lamb - the Lamb. However, the moment he opens his mouth, you know him for what he is. He's the fake, the phony, the one that desired the very mercy seat (Ezekiel 28). He wants to be God and does everything to appear as Him, but he is not. II Thessalonians 2:9Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, Who will you follow? The lamb that spake as a dragon or the Lamb?

That's why everyone needs to know Matt. 24:23-3123 “Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There!’ do not believe it. 24 For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. 25 See, I have told you beforehand.26 “Therefore if they say to you, ‘Look, He is in the desert!’ do not go out; or ‘Look, He is in the inner rooms!’ do not believe it.27 For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 28 For wherever the carcass is, there the eagles will be gathered together.29 “Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 30 Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, fand then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31 And He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.This tells us exactly how Christ will return if someone says otherwise do not believe them based on this scripture. Also, the angels in Acts tells us how Christ will return. Paul also tells us how Christ will return. John confirms it all in Revelation.

It's just as you said, they'll all see Christ in his coming. I'd even expand on your first comment and say know Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21 since they parallel each other but offer important perspectives on the same event. They are indeed the condensed version of Revelation. But getting back to the lamb that spake as a dragon...

My question is about who the "him" is in 11 Thess.2:9. Originally I thought it was Christ, who comes after the workings of Satan....after his signs and lying wonders. Upon reading it again I am changing my mind. :study: Should it be read as the "him" being Satan, who comes after the workings of anti-christ who used Satan's powers (signs and lying wonders)?To answer your question....I will follow the Lamb. I know Satan comes first pretending to be Christ........Whirlwind

Even him" also includes Satan's religious beast system. Satan's religious system will be present with Satan. The religious beast is discussed in Revelation 13, and this the religious role that gives support and authority to Satan.

With the Number 13 in mind. 13 is the number of Apostasy or a Harlot. Which is coherent with Revelation 13. THE 13 sTARs on the US dollar.
