    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    For what it is worth: In 2 Thessalonians 2, Paul carefully distinguishes between the mystery of lawlessness, the man of lawlessness, and the satanic manner in which this lawless power operates. First, Paul says, “the mystery of lawlessness is already at work” (2 Thessalonians 2:7). This means...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    I think you are mistaken. Please read chapters 2,7 and 8 and also, 11:1-4, thanks.

    The fallacy of believing Jesus was talking about the temple of stones on the Mount of Olives

    Part 3 of 3 In the end, Daniel 7 affirms what Scripture declares from beginning to end: God’s covenant commandments are unchangeable, eternal, and will return to Him intact (Isaiah 55:11). Though the little horn distorts and persecutes, though kingdoms rise and fall, His Word endures. And when...

    The fallacy of believing Jesus was talking about the temple of stones on the Mount of Olives

    Part 2 of 3 This verse is not about the persecution of people—it is about the systematic war against the very voice of God etched into stone. When Daniel says that the little horn would “persecute the saints of the Most High,” it is a prophetic revelation of how God’s Ten Commandments—the very...

    The fallacy of believing Jesus was talking about the temple of stones on the Mount of Olives

    Thank you very much for the comment... I certainly hope you will not consider my interpretation too extreme. I can assure you that there will not be enough space to provide you with the supporting information for this interpretation that is found within the earlier chapters of Daniel (as well as...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    No, you are completely unable to be wrong which is why you cannot possibly address the chapter 6 verses that identify the timing of the little horn. Take care.

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    No, I am sorry. You will not address what 7:7-8, and 7:19-20 CLEARLY tells us and you will only accept YOUR INTERPRETATION of certain verses in chapter 8- because you have to … you refuse to accept or consider chapter 7’s clear language concerning the identity or timing of the little horn. I am...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    You claim I am ignoring the literal words in scripture but I am not. Please tell me what 7:7-8 tells you —- leave chapter 8 alone for now please.

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    Above in Daniel 7 you agreed that the 3rd kingdom was Greece (7:6). Then you agreed that 7:7-8 speaks to a 4th kingdom- WHICH CANNOT BE GREECE. Further, you agree that 7:8 reveals the 10 horns AND THE LITTLE HORN COME OUT OF THE 4th kingdom. The 4th kingdom is pagan Rome - the little horn...

    Thank you but can you please elaborate?

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    Last chance to walk through Daniel… yes, just Daniel because that is the book where we are given God’s words / prophecies. Focus on 7:6 ONLY - do you agree it speaks to the 3rd kingdom of Greece? Focus on the words in 7:7 ONLY - “AFTER THIS…. And behold, A 4TH KINGDOM. … Can thus 4th kingdom...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    I have absolutely no desire to make fun of or make light of your comments. But I will say that you refuse to use the actual words within these verses to try and develop an interpretation. Verses 7:6-8 are not the complicated verses in Daniel 7. In fact, these are the most easily understood...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    I believe God establishes 4 and only 4 metal kingdoms in chapter 2 - that is His blueprint... there are only 4 metal types and only 4 kingdoms. Where does Daniel tell us or even imply the 10 represent a world government? What kingdom comes after Greece? There is only one - Rome. What kingdom...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    First, there is absolutely NO book in the bible that is more difficult and almost impossible to interpret and unpack than Daniel. And I say that at this time because one MUST focus on what Daniel is telling us, NOT what Daniel might be telling us by looking into Revelation. It doesn't work that...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    Ok, you are not providing any substantive information on the identify of this individual. Who is the little horn? Why is he also the sea beast in Revelation. You have no need to jump to Revelation... he is first introduced in Daniel and God has given us an awlful lot of information describing...

    Please explain who the man of sin is and what has brought you to that conclusion, thanks.

    What a breath of fresh air. If you would like, please let me know what verses in Daniel 8 you might like to discuss. Thanks.

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    Ok, since you studied Daniel, I would really like to hear your understanding of who the little horn is, why and when he comes. And certainly, please try and connent this individual to the many, many characteristices and actions that he will be found guilty of according to Daniel 7 and 8. Thanks...

    Who is Paul discussing in 2 Thessalonians 2?

    Well, for someone that has himself declared you are not sure and do not know, you are definitely sure it has nothing to do with the church. Best wishes always,
