Man of Sin Self-Appointment, Self-Aggrandisement, Self-Adoration

[Stumpmaster]

2Th 2:3-4 Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition, (4) who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.

Who would actually appoint themselves to a higher position than God and consider themselves worthy of more worship than Him?

How would such a person arrive at and sustain such a portrayal of themself?

If a name was numerically designed to be used as a mark of currency in all those willing to subordinate themselves in order to trade for goods and services I believe the person with this name would have the option of becoming the man of sin or of refusing to co-operate with Satan in this regard.

It would require a person who fitted the Biblical description of the man of sin to completely surrender themself to Satan and wilfully act in opposition to all that is righteous if they were to become this self-appointed, self-aggrandised, self-adored whack-job destined for perdition.

So far all contenders have been restrained.

The situation is monitored and studied closely:

My source has provided an outline of seven dimensions being used to track possible candidates:

1. Existence: What is here to most likely cause the rise of a potential man of sin?
2. Environment: What is happening to most likely eventuate the revealing of a potential man of sin?
3. Nature: What characteristics are most likely to be inherent in a potential man of sin?
4. Nurture: What experiences are most likely to influence a potential man of sin?
5. Mastery: What successes are most likely to elate the man of sin?
6. Misery: What failures are most likely to deflate the man of sin?
7. Metamorphosis: What determining factors are most likely to actually change candidate X into the man of sin?

The answers are currently classified.

Media Disclosure Of Existence Of Man Of Sin Prohibited Until Zenith Of Wickedness Reached:

2Th 2:3 Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed [apokalupto], the son of perdition,

Strongs G601
ἀποκαλύπτω
apokaluptō
ap-ok-al-oop'-to
From G575 and G2572; to take off the cover, that is, disclose: - reveal.
Total KJV occurrences: 26

So far media efforts to identify a man of sin with a numerically designed name self-appointing themselves to a higher position than God in His dwelling place, and claiming to be worthy of more worship than Him, have not been proven correct.

Hi Mike Tang.

Furthermore, the man of sin cannot be revealed unless and until the restraints and constraints of disclosing his identity are removed. While one restraint would be lack of information another would be the withholding of information.

All through history and as Scripture records, wicked rulers have emerged to oppress unregenerate humanity and test God's People.

Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece, Political Rome, and Papal Rome feature predominately in the course of world events, and are examples of the corruption, deception, and exploitation that will reach a peak in the future when the man of sin will require all trade and commerce to be prohibited to those who refuse to accept his mark.

A tradesman cannot provide a service and a shopkeeper cannot carry and sell stock unless they have received the required mark. A customer cannot purchase goods or services unless they have the required mark. This will not be difficult to enforce globally when complete corporate control by unregenerate humanity has been achieved.

It also does not happen until after 75% of current humanity is dead and gone. The remnant of humans will be centralized around Jerusalem and the ME.

No. The name you provide doesn't configure with the wisdom of the gematria and Pythagorean numerology, and the time has not come for the disclosure of who the man of sin is.

Rev 13:16-18 He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, (17) and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. (18) Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.
