Context Readings

The Man Of Lawlessness Will Be Revealed

8 And then the lawless person [See verse 3] will be revealed, the one whom the Lord Jesus will destroy with the breath of His mouth and bring to an end by the brilliant appearance of His presence [i.e., at His second coming]. 9 The coming [of this lawless person] is according to the work of Satan, [and will be] attended by all kinds of powerful [i.e., miraculous] signs and false wonders, 10 and all kinds of wicked deception toward those people who are perishing [spiritually], because they refused to love the truth so they could be saved.
