is one who restrains now, until he is taken out of the way. 002:008 Then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will kill with the breath of his mouth, and destroy by the manifestation of his coming; 002:009 even he whose coming is according to the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 002:010 and with all deception of wickedness for those who are being lost, because they didn't receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 002:011 Because of this, God sends them a working of error, that they should believe a lie; 002:012 that they all might be judged who didn't believe the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. 002:013 But we are bound to always give thanks to God for you, brothers loved by the Lord, because God chose you from the beginning for salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief in the truth; 002:014 to which he called you through our Good News, for the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. 002:015 So then, brothers, stand firm, and hold the traditions which you were taught by us, whether by word, or by letter. 002:016 Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who loved us and gave us eternal comfort and good hope through grace, 002:017 comfort your hearts and establish you in every good work and word. 003:001 Finally, brothers, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may spread rapidly and be glorified, even as also with you; 003:002 and that we may be delivered from unreasonable and evil men; for not all have faith. 003:003 But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you, and guard you from the evil one. 003:004 We have confidence in the Lord concerning you, that you both do and will do the things we command. 003:005 May the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patience of Christ. 003:006 Now we command you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you withdraw yourselves from every brother who walks in rebellion, and not after the tradition which they received from us. 003:007 For you know how you ought to imitate us.
