2 Thessalonians ch. 2 teaches us that before we are gathered together to Jesus Christ, there will be the deception of Satan as the false Christ. Mark ch. 13 teaches us how to stand against him

Yes false Messiah's will come and decieve many.. I believe part of the end times great deception will be the Anti-christ fooling many people into believing he is the promised Messiah..

If I may ask you a question about how you are viewing this text... focusing in (first of all, for this question) on verses 1 and 2, what would you say Paul is conveying in verse 2?

IOW, what is the "false claim" that he is cautioning the Thessalonians about (in verse 2)?
How would you put it into your own words?




By the way, welcome to CC! I see you're new here. Hope to see you around the boards! :)

^ I'm just now noticing that this thread is in the New Members section. I didn't realize this when I posted. I only noticed the title at the right side of the screen, and then read the OP without noticing what Section this was... I assumed it was in the "Bible Discussion" section.
My apologies!





Again, welcome! :)
