    The Coming Great Apostasy

    You are even having a problem with reading comprehension now too. I never said you were speaking of a singular Antichrist, but instead that you try to point to many people with Paul's Message in 2 Thess.2. Paul's context in 2 Thess.2 is still about a singular false Messiah coming to Jerusalem...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    I simply quoted Irenaeus from his Against Heresies writing which was against the Gnostic liars of his era.

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    Paul said no such thing about the Roman Empire being taken away in 2 Thess.2. That is a doctrine from men, and not what Paul was pointing to. Paul's idea was about the false one of verse 3 & 4 being revealed in his time (2 Thess.2:6). Paul's context is about that false one being withheld until...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    No, no pope has ever fulfilled that 2 Thess.2 prophecy. Reason is because no pope has ever sat in a physical temple in Jerusalem and exalted himself over all that is called God, or that is worshiped. The context is a singular Antichrist that is to work great signs and wonders, for Paul was...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    You're the one doing the religious chattering, by trying to change Paul's context in 2 Thess.2 about the coming "man of sin" and "son of perdition" to a whole bunch of people, which of course is madness. And your madness is getting stronger with your out lashing each time this is shown to you!

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    Don't have to try and redo everything the KJV translators gave there in 2 Thess.2. It's a simple matter to follow the context, because even the context in the Greek of 2 Thess.2:9 which Jesus comes to destroy reveals Paul was speaking of a singular false one.

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    Better to read what Irenaeus himself actually said: Irenaeus: 4. "But he indicates the number of the name now, that when this man comes we may avoid him, being aware who he is: the name, however, is suppressed, because it is not worthy of being proclaimed by the Holy Spirit. For if it had been...

    The whole world will be deceived

    The false apostles which Apostle Paul spoke of in 2 Corinthians 11 involve their master Satan who disguises himself as an angel of light. And that is who Paul there pointed to as the "another Jesus". 2 Cor 11:2-4 2 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    The "man of sin", the "son of perdition" of 2 Thess.2, is the devil himself. That is who Apostle Paul was pointing to in 2 Thess.2 coming to work miracles and lying wonders to deceive. The orthodox unbelieving Jews in Jerusalem will worship him as Messiah. Some Christian brethren who are...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    I understand foolishness when I see it. Your application of that 1 Cor.2:14 Scripture in no way will modify or change what Apostle Paul warned the Church in 2 Thess.2 about the Wicked one coming to sit in a temple in Jerusalem and exalt himself over all that is called God, or that is worshiped.

    The whole world will be deceived

    That's an application totally... out of the context of Scripture.

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    I don't know where you are getting the doctrine that Paul was speaking in the plural about the false one in 2 Thess.2 being revealed in his time. The Scripture is not supporting such a view. The context of the "man of sin" being revealed is in the singular, and that's who Paul was referring to...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    All you did was prove something equivalent to ink on a page in The Bible. You didn't stay with the actual context and subject of the 2 Thess.2 chapter, and that's the cardinal sin you made. The subject of 2 Thess.2:3-4 is Paul's warning about a false one coming to play God in Jerusalem in a...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    The "temple of God" Apostle Paul said the "man of sin" will come to sit in and play God, is NOT the spiritual temple idea of Ephesians. If it was, then it would mean that "man of sin" would have power to corrupt even our Lord Jesus Christ!!! And that since Jesus is the Chief Cornerstone of the...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    You haven't proven anything, since Apostle Paul certainly was not 'in The Spirit' when he was busy working for the Pharisees before Jesus converted him. So what I said still stands. A Jew that may be deceived and working for the "synagogue of Satan" may prove to be a true believer in our...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    Problem with that is, Apostle Paul's subject linked to that "Wicked" is the one he was speaking of in verses 3 & 4, the "man of sin" and "son of perdition". But nice try though, at attempting to take one little phrase out of a single verse in that 2 Thess.2 chapter and change it, just to...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    Religious distraction? Irenaeus is a distraction? You really mean that what he said about a singular Antichrist coming in the last days to sit in a physical temple in Jerusalem is something you don't like to hear. Could that mean you have an agenda agreeing with the Jews who hate anyone pointing...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    Well, the early Church father Irenaeus interpreted that 'man of sin' as sitting in a physical temple in Jerusalem, and he wasn't alone in that understanding. So I guess you disagree with many of the early Church fathers too. No matter, because it is impossible for Paul's "temple of God" to mean...

    The Coming Great Apostasy

    Apostle Paul was one of those disobedient Jews following the "synagogue of Satan". That shows how our brethren of the house of Judah can be deceived into working with the "synagogue of Satan" while in their hearts they truly love our Heavenly Father. This is why Zechariah 12:10-14 shows they...

    The whole world will be deceived

    That's a popular tradition taught in many pulpits, based on the event of Satan using Apostle Peter to tempt our Lord Jesus. But God's Word reveals that 'son of perdition' will be Satan himself, for the only one born in the flesh that has done great signs and miracles to show peoples from all...
