Primeiro deve vir a apostasia e o anticristo; sabeis que algo o detém, de modo que ele só se manifestará a seu tempo

1 About the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, brothers and sisters, and our being gathered to him,
2 we beg you not to be too easily upset in mind or thrown into confusion by any manifestation of the Spirit or any statement or any letter claiming to come from us, to the effect that the Day of the Lord is already here.
3 Do not let anyone deceive you in any way. It cannot happen until the Great Revoltc has come and the Man of Wickedness has first appeared, the Son of Perdition,
4 the Enemy, who raises himself above every so-called god or object of worship to enthrone himself in God’s sanctuary, and flaunts the claim that he is God.
5 Do you not remember my telling you about this when I was still with you?
6 And you know, too, what is holding him back till he should appear at his appointed time.
7 The mystery of wickedness is already at work, but let him who is restraining it once be removed,
8 and the Wicked One will be revealed, whom the Lord will destroy with the breath of his mouth, annihilating him by the manifestation of his coming.
9 The coming of the Wicked One is to be marked by the working of Satan in all kinds of signs and wonders and false miracles,
10 and every wicked deception for those who are perishing because they would not accept the love of the truth and so be saved.
11 And therefore God sends on them a power of delusion so that they believe what is false,
12 so that those who do not believe the truth but take their pleasure in wickedness may all be condemned.
