2 Thessalonians 2:9-12

(2 Thessalonians 2:9-12)


『Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,  And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.  And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:  That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. 』

 

Satan is a Hebrew language. The Greek word for the New Testament was also called Satan. Satan was Lucifer (commandment: Helrell) in the kingdom of God, but he wanted to be like God and was pushed into the world against God, but he was given the power to govern the world for a period of time. So, everyone became a servant of Satan. But those who escape from Satan are deceived by Satan. God uses Satan as a tester. The representative person would be Job. Even Jesus was tempted by Satan. Jesus in John 18:36『Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence. 』 Even those who are in Jesus Christ are not humans in this world, as Jesus said, although their bodies are in this world.
However, those who follow Satan and those who serve Satan will say, ``Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. Likewise, those who seek the power of the Holy Spirit without being born again are deceived by Satan and become perishing. Why do you perish?『because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.』

Today, many churches seek the truth of love, not the love of truth. Truth means Jesus on the cross, but all love that is not in Christ becomes a false gospel. Love is an idol to those who are not in Christ who died on the cross. Before we speak of God's love, we must first realize God's righteousness. It means that God will destroy those who follow the truth of love.

『 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. 』 It means that God will be judged by those who do not follow the love of truth. The person who does not repent is not able to escape from the lie, but that God allows him to believe the lie. It is left under Satan's control. He says he believes in God in the church, but those who are under Satan's control are not saved. Those who are not loved by the truth are under Satan's control. People say they believe in Jesus, but they have never repented unless they have faith in unity with Christ.

2 Thessalonians 3:6-18

  (2 Thessalonians 3:6-18) Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ , that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us. For yourselves know how ye ought to follow us: for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you; Neither did we eat any man's bread for nought; but wrought with labour and travail night and day, that we might not be chargeable to any of you: Not because we have not power, but to make ourselves an ensample unto you to follow us. For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat. For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies. Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ , that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread. But ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing. And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, n...

2 Thessalonians 1:1-12

(2 Thessalonians 1:1-12) p aul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, because that your faith groweth exceedingly, and the charity of every one of you all toward each other aboundeth; So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye endure: Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer: Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you; And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus...

2 Thessalonians 2:13-14

(2 Thessalonians 2:13-14) 『 But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. 』   Those who are chosen are first responded by being called to the gospel. Just being called is not all about being chosen. When the Hebrews cried out to God, God brought them out of Egypt. However, they crossed the Red Sea, but they had no faith in Canaan. Today, even though the people of the Church are called to the gospel, there are not many who are chosen because they do not repent. If you do not choose, "the sanctification of the Holy Spirit and the saving of the truth by faith" does not apply.   The Saints in Thessalonica Church were born again by the Holy Spirit. In 1 Peter 1:2 『 Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father,...
