2 Thessalonians 2:11

And for this reason God sendeth them (kai dia touto pempei autoiv o qeov). Futuristic (prophetic) present of the time when the lawless one is revealed. Here is the definite judicial act of God (Milligan) who gives the wicked over to the evil which they have deliberately chosen (Romans 1:24, Romans 1:26, Romans 1:28).

A working of error (energeian planhv). Terrible result of wilful rejection of the truth of God.

That they should believe a lie (eiv to pisteusai autouv tw yeudei). Note eiv to again and tw yeudei (the lie, the falsehood already described), a contemplated result. Note Romans 1:25 "who changed the truth of God into the lie."
