That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness, 2Thes.2:11,12.
These people missed the 'rapture' that occurred in verse 7 (He who holds down (prevents) lawlessness is taken out of the way (raptured).) And these left behind people will be deceived by Satan's lying wonders. That means they will take the mark of the beast & suffer the conscequences! Rev.14:10,11 They will suffer Gods wrath...& torments...& not rest day or night who worship the beast & his image & whosoever receives the mark of his name.

Bulai'a, Josh is a human with human understanding. God caused the day to be longer. OK? So they could have the victory. The Sun was still.
Else where in the bible the Magi were following the star & the star stood still. It just appeared to stand still. It was doing one of those weird astronomy acts. If you study this star scientifically. Back in December25, 3BC, King Jupitar (Planet) stopped went back past King star Regularus, stopped. went back King Star Regularus. Formed a Halo/Crown. In the bible the star stopped. On Dec27, 3BC Jupitar stopped. The Magi found Jesus in a house. It makes sense.
So? The sun was stopped in the sky. Who cares if it is always stopped. God did the miracle to stop time.

Also, When God makes peace, the devil shows up. It is a conscequence of being reconciled to God. Jesus is our peace. He has broken down every wall. But the devil gets mad/jealous then. So? We have to take authority over the devil. So? God knows what the devil will do when we are reconciled with God. The devil hates everyone born of God.

Yes, Luke 19, is after Jesus rewards those who were profitable with their talents. This is when Jesus gives the profitable cities to rule. And those antichrists who are guilty of great sins (not loving Gods Truth to serve God) will be slain. Yes the wrath of God is stored up in bowls to be poured on earth. (So glad I am not going to be here!).

i 12 bright, I don't think the present Pope is the antichrist. I believe he is a Christian. So was Pope John Paul 2. But there has been antichrist Popes in the past. But I haven't asked God to show me the antichrist Popes. Haven't studied it.
Christians aren't deluded (when they renew their mind in Gods Word). They are anointed with the Spirit of Truth when they are born of God. The Spirit of Truth keeps them & the wicked one can't cling to them (1Jn5:18). The wicked one is the deceiver (devils & demons).

mj, I believe every eye will see Jesus when he returns also. Thanks for the verses. I also believe That Jesus raised from the dead 2000 years ago (He Is the 1st Resurrection) And that the rapture (pre trib) is part of the 1st Resurrection. Then the Antichrist rules fear for a season. Then Jesus comes back to earth for the Millinnium Reign of Christ. At Jesus return every eye shall see Him. The 1st Resurrection is complete before the Reign of Christ. Those who are part of the 1st resurrection are those redeemed by His Blood. In Revelations there are two Resurrections. The 1st is before Jesus Christ Reigns the Millinnium. And the 2nd is after Jesus Christ Reigns in the Millinnium.
I prayed to Jesus and said I want to be part of the 1st Resurrection.
The part of 2 Thes verse on delusion of the antichrist is after the 'rapture' & before the return of Christ.

HELLOOOOOOOOO....?
The rapture, as it is presently taught, and as you have professed is a made-up Jesuit fable to take the heat off of the fact that the pope is antichrist. This IS the strong delusion sweetie. The 'christians' are the only ones who can be deluded. The fact that you can't see it, and that so many others who profess the name of Christ, yet remain so apostate, loving the world, and renaming whatever their particular worldly practice is by putting 'christian' before it, well, it let's me know that delusion is wazzup alright.

People who think they're God (like Pharoah, in the book of Exodus) are often permitted by God to believe their own lies, so others might be "saved" as a result of their obvious foolishness and error.
I'll bet you ten bucks there will be no pre-trib rapture.

Because not all were meant to here the truth in this dispensation.
Their time will be during the Millennium.
Mat 13:13 Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
Mat 13:14 And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:
Mat 13:15 For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
Mat 13:16 But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
Mat 13:17 For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.
Harvest has stages.
Evidently God is worried that if they know the truth now, and still follow Satan, they will be without excuse.

Because "God" hates humanities free will and will do everything in his power to destroy it. The BIBLE is the strong delusion of which it itself speaks. In reality we save our own souls not some "messiah".
The fact that we have free will and "god" made all the rules against it makes the intelligent person question the belief that he was the one who gave it to us in the first place. Originally we did not have it. It was the "tree of knowledge" that the snake suggested that eve take that gave humanity free will. Of course the entire genesis story is entirely symbolic with no literal truth in any of it.

If people don't want the truth, God won't force it on them. I personally have wondered if this verse refers to evolution.

again tamil u assume something not staed ,, u do ask why GOD ALLOWS people to believe a lie ,, it tells u simply because they dont want the truth!! they would rather believe alie for it fits what they believe,
GOD never forces anyones will to obey him !! satan is the only one that uses force against others to follow his dictates , if u choose to go your own way even though the holy spirit is pleading with you to stop soon you wont hear his voice anymore . we are told that saul king saul that is ,, was at first a king that sought after GOD,, PRIDE AND WORLDLY fame got in his way and he was overcome with another spirit .. /
whenever we refuse instructions and read only what we want and obey only what we want too weset ourself up to become anothers slave,,
their is no such thing as being left behind and second chances,, it is not biblical rev 1 v 7 every eye shall see him 2 thesalonians says when jesus appears the second time the wicked are destroyed by his brightness matt24.30 he will be seen in all his glory acts now john 14 v1-3 tell us jesus will return he said ,if igo i will return.. --- acts 1v 9-11 tells us the way he went and tells us he will return in a similar manner 2 amgels themselves remained behind after jesu assended up in a cloud and comforted the followers if jesus went up before all his followers its stated he will come back the same way ,, fully visable;; what were these clouds jesus asesended up into?? do wehavea bilical passagethat can help us here?? look at Psalm 104
1Bless the LORD, O my soul. O LORD my God, thou art very great; thou art clothed with honour and majesty.
2Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment: who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain:
3Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters: who maketh the clouds his chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind:
4Who maketh his angels spirits;
now these same clouds he describes as his chariots are defined in another psalm Psalm 68 17 ;The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands of angels: the Lord is among them, as in Sinai, in the holy place. imagine when jesus comesback and he is in the clouds of angels riding on their wings so to speak?? would anyone miss this?? . luke9 ,26 tells us when jesus returns its with his fathers glory his own glory and with the glory of angelic beings. .
in matthew 28 ,1-7 we see what happened to a legion of soldiers guarding jesus tomb they all fell down as dead men that dear one is just 1 angel imagine the glory of twenty thousand and thousands of thousands ,, in the greek innumerable angels are described as thousands of thousands x ten thousands revelation 6v 14-17show us again in another manner sinners fleeing from jesus return the last v v 17 we see saints we have waited your return angels brightness and christs brightness dont afectthe rightous justthe sinners .. making it short i tim 4, 6-8 1 thessalonians 4,16-17 1 corinth 15,51-53 mathew 24 ,v31 psalms 50 this one is intrigging it states onlythose who have made an agreement by sacrafice to GOD will be among the redeemed , heaven to them wil be worth all the sacrifices theymade while here on earth in their life time. ,
going on quickly read also 2 thessalonians 2 v 8 revelation 6.17 jeramiah25 ,, 33 tells us what the earth looks like after jesus returns and the wicked are destroyed isaiah 25;; 8-9 !!!!!!!!!! people, saints , if u stop short at just one verse and dont continue to learn u lose out . let GOD fully shine light on all that is stated in th bible not one or two passages .. bro murray.
