II Thessalonians - Concerning the return of Yahushua
2:1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Master Yahushua, and by our gathering together unto him,
2:2 That you be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as THAT THE DAY OF YHWH IS AT HAND.
2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: FOR THAT DAY SHALL NOT COME, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
2:4 Who oppose and exalt himself above all that is called Elohim, or that is worshipped; so that he as Elohim sit in the temple of Elohim, showing himself that he is Elohim.
2:5 Remember not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?
2:6 And now you know what restrains for him to be revealed in his time.
2:7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only until he who restrains, be taken out of the way.
2:8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom YHWH shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
2:9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
2:10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
2:11 And for this cause Elohim shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
2:12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
So for all those looking for Messiah to return today, or tomorrow or in some kind of secret rapture, it just won't happen. The man of Sin is also called, the man of Lawlessness, and the Son of Perdition. According to scripture his destiny is destruction. (see the book of Obadiah) Not until true Israel awakens out of her slumber and turn away from the works of Satan and turn to the true Elohim of Israel; the return of Mashiyach will continue to be delayed.
