2 THESSALONIANS 2:8 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“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:”
And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will kill with the breath of his mouth and bring to nothing by the appearance of his coming — the apocalyptic climax: Christ's parousia (epiphaneia, appearance) itself destroys the lawless one. The 'breath of his mouth' (pneumati tou stomatos autou) echoes Isaiah 11:4 and demonstrates the power of Christ's word. Total annihilation (katargeo) is his fate.
