2 Thessalonians 2:8-9 - 1599 Geneva Bible
8 And then shall that wicked man be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the Spirit of his mouth, and shall abolish with the brightness of his coming,9 Even him whose coming is by the effectual working of Satan, with all power, and signs, and lying wonders,
Brethren:
The son of Perdition shall be revealed. Even to the ancient church he was hidden, yet working towards usurping the very throne of God. Towards that end. Yet God had kept him in check until such time that he would be revealed.
“That wickedness shall at length be detected by the word of the Lord, and utterly be abolished by Christ’s coming. Word for word, that lawless fellow: that is to say, he that shall tread God’s law clean underfoot. Bring to naught. With his word: for the true Ministers of the word are as a mouth, whereby the Lord breathe out that mighty and everlasting word, which shall break his enemies in sunder, as it were an iron rod. He foretells that Satan will bestow all his might and power, and use all false miracles that he can to establish that seat, and that with great success, because the wickedness of the world doth so deserve it: yet so, that only the unfaithful shall perish through his deceit. Which are partly false, and partly wrought to establish a falsehood” - Study notes from the GNV Translation
