Will we accept Jesus’ correction and discipline or will we deliver ourselves to our desires (2Th 2:6,7)?

[Leonardo Von]

Will we accept Jesus’ correction and discipline or will we deliver ourselves to our desires (2Th 2:6,7)? 

•    Pro 15:10 -> “Correction is grievous to him who forsakes the way; he who hates reproof shall die.”.

We are in a time that everyone wishes to live without boundaries. It’s no wonder:

•    2Th 2:7 -> “For the mystery of lawlessness doth already work: only there is one that restraineth now, until he be taken out of the way.”.

Since the time of Paul, the Israelites who refuses to accept Jesus try to impose the Judaism as the world religion and the antichrist as their Messiah. At the moment, the Holy Spirit has precluding this through His Church. In order to weaken the Church, Ha-Satan has sent his servants to make feeble Jesus’ commandments:

•    Jude 4 -> “For certain men have crept in unawares, who long ago were marked out for this condemnation, ungodly men, changing the grace of our God into licentiousness and denying the only Master God and our Lord Jesus Christ.”.

Ha-satan’s strategy is simple: he ushers in his ministers disguised of ministries of justice (2Cor 11:13-15):

•    2Pe 2:1 -> “But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who secretly will bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing on themselves swift destruction.”. 

By and by the Christians has considered the sin something normal. When one of the demons falls from the heaven (Rev 9:1), he will open the abyss (Rev 9:1,2), the angel of the abyss will possess the antichrist (Rev 13:3) and, then, through all the efficacious of Ha-Satan (2Thess 2:10-12), religious leaders will garble the Holy Scripture in such a way that they will deny Jesus Christ based on the Holy Scripture (this is the apostasy of 2Thess 2:3).

When this takes place, the antichrist will sit as God in the temple of God, setting himself forth, that he is God (2Th 2:4). Then the Church will be caught up by Jesus in the middle of the seventieth week of Daniel and the beast will have all the room to propagate the mystery of iniquity, which will reach its apex with the formation of the image of the beast (Rev 13:14).

But all of this will take place because most of the people will wish only the truth which is convenient for them:

•    “For a time will be when they will not endure sound doctrine, but they will heap up teachers to themselves according to their own lusts, tickling the ear. And they will turn away their ears from the truth and will be turned to myths.”.

So, have a good day looking at Jesus’ correction with good eyes, accepting His discipline even though this goes against the delights of our flesh.
