2 Thessalonians 2:2-4

Contemporary English Version

² not to be easily upset or disturbed by people who claim the Lord^[a] has already come. They may say they heard this directly from the Holy Spirit, or from someone else, or even that they read it in one of our letters. ³ But don't be fooled! People will rebel against God. Then before the Lord returns, the wicked^[b] one who is doomed to be destroyed will appear. ^4 (A) He will brag and oppose everything holy or sacred. He will even sit in God's temple and claim to be God.
