The Great Apostasy

1 Now, brethren, aconcerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ band our gathering together to Him, we ask you,  
2 anot to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of1 Christ had come.  
3 Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come aunless the falling away comes first, and bthe man of sin is revealed, cthe son of perdition,  
4 who opposes and aexalts himself babove all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits1 as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.  
5 Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things?
6 And now you know what is restraining, that he may be revealed in his own time.
7 For athe mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only2 He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way.

2 Thessalonians 2:2

II Thessalonians 2:2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled. Be not agitated, or in distress. Neither by spirit. By some one who says he has a revelation of the Spirit. Nor by word, nor by letter as from us. Nor by one who claims to quote a word or letter from us. It is thought that a forged letter had been circulated to which Paul alludes. In the close of this Epistle he shows how his letters may be known to be genuine. Some suppose, however, that by "letter" he refers to an incorrect interpretation which was placed on his first letter.
