“THEY MAY BELIEVE WHAT IS FALSE!”

 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12                 (ESV)

“[9] The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with ALL POWER AND FALSE SIGNS AND WONDERS, [10] and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because THEY REFUSED to LOVE the TRUTH  and so be saved. [11] Therefore GOD sends them a strong delusion, so that “THEY MAY BELIEVE WHAT IS FALSE”, [12] in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.”

KNOWING what is TRUTH isn’t because we live our lives holier than others.  It is because we are CHOSEN to represent THE KING OF KINGS and THE LORD OF LORDS!   

If everyone were subjected to the same experiences and conditions, it might be understandable that they would all turn out the same way?  But some EYES are OPENED and they are able to SEE the things in a perspective that GLORIFIES GOD IN THE HIGHEST (2 Kings 6:17)!!!

“Therefore GOD sends them a strong delusion, so that “THEY MAY BELIEVE WHAT IS FALSE”, in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness” is an extremely terrible position to be in.  We who have been CHOSEN need to make sure that we tell everyone we love about THE LOVE OF JESUS in an attempt to make certain that they are NOT apart of “THEY MAY BELIEVE WHAT IS FALSE”!!!
