The sermon is from  2 Thessalonians 2:3b-5 – “The Description of the Man of Lawlessness”.   “… the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, …” – 2 Thessalonians 2:3

In 2 Thessalonians 2:3, Paul teaches that two events must precede the 2nd Coming of Christ. He calls the first event “the rebellion” and, secondly, he states that “the man of lawlessness is revealed.” Are you ready for these events on God’s calendar? They may not be on your calendar, but they are firmly etched in God’s. Are you strong in the Lord and in His mighty power (Ephesians 6:10)? Will you stand strong against “the rebellion?” The Lord questioned Jeremiah, “If you have raced with men on foot, and they have wearied you, how will you compete with horses?” (Jeremiah 12:5) If we cannot live for Christ when times are easy, what about hard times? Solomon counsels us – “Buy the truth, and do not sell it …” (Proverbs 23:23) Paul speaks in a similar vein in 2 Thessalonians (See Chapter 2:9-12).
