II Thessalonians speaks of a coming day of apostasy when
“the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition” (II Thess.
2:3). He will exalt himself above all the beings who are
called “God,” and will be worshiped by adoring millions.
Is he now waiting in the wings, for his dramatic entrance,
when he will appear on stage for the final act in this world’s
crescendoing violence and dance with nuclear death? Who
is he, anyway? What are the tell-tale pointers which will
mark and identify him? Here are some things to consider.
