2 Thessalonians 2:1-12 Read from CJB
V2 white horse: this is not Jesus
a crown had to be given to this being. Jesus already has His
he went forth to conquering and to conquer. Jesus already conquered over the devil and his cohorts. What did Jesus say just before He died? He said, "It is finished!" John 19:30 The greek word for 'finish' is teleo it means, "to make and end, to accomplish, to complete something". It also means "to pay off or pay in full". Jesus accomplished our full redemption. Salvation remember is complete. Sozo (Greek) includes salvation, deliverance from the enemy, and healing. All these things were paid for in complete by Jesus' death and resurrection. Other than death, the last enemy to be destroyed, 1Corinthians 15:26, all has been accomplished. In Verse 25 of 1Corinthians 15––those enemies are the demons, satan himself, as well as the people who are enemies of God who do not repent and live for Him. That time is coming soon. We need to be praying for people every where be awakened to God and repent and received Jesus as their Lord and Savior and live for Him.
