[Intro]
\nIn the time of great deception
\nSome biblical reflection
\nYou brought on this mess
\nThe man of lawlessness<\/p>\n

[Verse 1]
\nStealing money from a charity
\nAnd, to think it’s not a rarity
\nReeling self-dealing
\nIncrimination of the Foundation<\/p>\n

[Chorus]
\nIn the time of great deception
\nSome biblical reflection
\nYou brought on this mess
\nThe man of lawlessness<\/p>\n

[Bridge]
\nOutlawed the law
\n(Evil on call)
\nWhere to begin
\n(With all the sin)
\nLawlessness
\n(Time to confess)<\/p>\n

[Verse 2]
\nLiable for sexual abuse
\n(Can you hear… what’s the use)
\nA convicted felon
\n(Whinin’ and yellin’)<\/p>\n

[Chorus]
\nIn the time of great deception
\nSome biblical reflection
\nYou brought on this mess
\nThe man of lawlessness<\/p>\n

[Bridge]
\nOutlawed the law
\n(Evil on call)
\nWhere to begin
\n(With all the sin)
\nLawlessness
\n(Time to confess)<\/p>\n

[Chorus]
\nIn the time of great deception
\nSome biblical reflection
\nYou brought on this mess
\nThe man of lawlessness<\/p>\n

ABOUT THE SONG
\nThe “Man of Lawlessness” is a figure mentioned in the Bible, specifically in 2 Thessalonians 2:1-12<\/strong>, where the Apostle Paul warns early Christians about a future time of great deception before the return of Christ. This figure is often associated with the Antichrist and is described as a person who will oppose God, deceive many, and ultimately be destroyed by Christ at His second coming.<\/p>\n

Key Biblical Passages:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 (NIV)<\/strong><\/h4>\n

“Don\u2019t let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction. He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God\u2019s temple, proclaiming himself to be God.”<\/em><\/p>\n
