There are two comings presented in 2Thessalonians 2: First, the coming of the wicked one, and then after he is exposed, the coming of the Lord commences. The word coming here is equal to the Day of the Lord or his reign and also the gathering of the saints to him. So, before the Day of the Lord, the Day of Wicked One comes first and he will scatter the saints. Paul described this Wicked One as already doing his evil works even during the first century but in mystery or in secrecy. Unrevealed, unexposed, covered, or hidden, to effectively deceive the world. Paul said that someone was keeping him from being exposed and that situation will continue until this hindrance to his revelation is taken out of the way. I believe that Paul was talking about Satan, the Dark Power, who was hiding the Evil One. Once he is removed or put in prison, his wicked son is exposed, and the Thousand Bright Years will come and all the saints will be gathered to the Lord and will execute the fair judgment to the world. How to distinguish this Evil One? After the people have reached the peak of their rebellion against the pure teaching of the saints, God will puniish then by letting this Evil One rule over them. At the sane time, the saints will be tested of their loyalty during these time of tribulation. The wicked one (who is a spirit) will oppose all the teachings of the saints and will exalt himself above them all by setting up his throne in the church of God and proclaims he is the God or the Holy Father (Santo Papa) and as Head of God's Church. And the saints were handed to him for a time, times, and half a time. This was fulfilled from 538 C.E. to 1798 C.E., a thousand year-reign of this false holy spirit over the saints and during these dark times, this spirit preached that the thousand years of Christ has come already through the reign of christianity led by their Holy Father who sits in the Vatican city. But from 1798 to 1844, he was finally exposed, overpowered, and divided into many factions and from 1844 to 3104, a 1,260 years also, the Word of Truth will annihilate this Wicked One and the brightness of the Day will destroy him.
