Would you say that the "Wicked" one spoken of above is Satan? ~ ksen Woody.

And how about this verse which flatly declares that the working of Satan is even right now currently bound by Him; that is, unless He has been taken out of the way:

2Th 2:7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth [will let], until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: [Even him], whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,

If the Wicked One to be revealed is Satan then this verse makes no sense. It would say that Satan's coming is after the working of Satan, well no duh.

Well, if he is, then you need to kiss Premillennialism goodby.

Well since the Wicked One of that verse is obviously not Satan, just him whose coming is after the working of Satan, then I guess I don't have to kiss my Premillenialism goodbye quite yet.

Have a great Thanksgiving Woody. I'm taking off for NH until next week. See you then. BTW, I'm still looking forward to your post explaining if a totally depraved person can even recognize if they sin or not.
