The Mystery of Iniquity & The Rise of The Antichrist (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781905669875)

The Bible has a lot to say about how events in the world will pan out towards the end of time. These prophetic scriptures predict the second coming of Jesus Christ and the judgment of evil. However, before Christ's return, there would be an era of widespread lawlessness championed by the Antichrist and his evil coalition. Believers in different eras have always been curious about when these events would take place. It is no different with believers today.

This book, The Mystery of Iniquity & The Rise of the Antichrist, does not leave readers in the dark. Not only does it lay out the order of some major end time events, as contained in the second letter of Paul to the Thessalonians, it also unveils the secret operation responsible for the rise of iniquity and the falling away of many. It brings the scriptures to life and sees the disorder in the world today in the light of God's prophetic declarations.

The rise of lawlessness and the revealing of the son of perdition (the Antichrist) are topics that act as a magnet for some and a deterrent to others. Nonetheless, Paul wrote to Timothy, saying that "all Scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness." So, we must acknowledge a real debt to those who not only draw us towards less familiar verses but cause us to consider them in a wider context. These are the authors who prevent us from being side-tracked, either by our over-caution or by our over-enthusiasm. It would be hard to find a more balanced approach to 2 Thessalonians 2 than that offered here by Tokunbo Emmanuel.
- Dr. Hugh Osgood

Many years ago, as a young Christian, I was 'terrified' by teachings and predictions concerning the end times, especially the rapture, tribulation, and the mark of the beast. To overcome my fears, I convinced myself that end time events were in God's hands, and He alone knows the which, what, how and when of their fulfilment. I avoided discussions around the topic, and simply focused on serving God, the best way that He enabled me to. I am glad, however, that I read The Mystery of Iniquity! It is not predictive. Rather, I found it to be exploratory and explanatory, giving one the scope to carefully reflect on what the scriptures exactly say about the subject. The book is full of insight. It also helps one to consider and understand current events, from a biblical perspective.
- Apostle Jennifer Lawson-Wallace

The Mystery of Iniquity by Tokunbo Emmanuel is an instrument and a tool for the times we live in. It is not just prophetic, it is practical. It sheds light on many issues and raises many questions about things we thought we knew and understood. This book should drive Christians everywhere to two places: their knees and the pages of the Bible.
- Elsie Oghenekaro

The overarching message of this book is that God is in control of the destiny of humanity. Therefore, we do not need to fear whatever might befall the world. We know the truth about the end of the story: Jesus wins and we win with Him!
