Let’s return to 2 Thessalonians chapter 2 and what Paul was explaining to Christians in 51ad about a future “day of the Lord.” As we saw yesterday, not only will this ‘antichrist’ person be very wicked and fully opposed to God, God’s Truth, God’s Purposes and God’s people, 2 Thess. 2:4 says: He will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God’s temple, proclaiming himself to be God. So, in addition to being very wicked, this man will declare himself not only to be the political dictator of the world; and supreme leader of all militaries; this ‘antichrist’ will also declare himself to be the supreme GOD, above all the gods, of all religions!
