The apostle Paul mentioned several events to occur before Jesus Christ would return to the earth to establish and rule God's Kingdom. One of these events to occur is troubling to most Christians - the "falling away" that is to occur before the "lawless one" is revealed. What is this "falling away" and who does it involve? We need to understand that this mostly involves the world around us, but it can and will affect the Church of God. What must we do to avoid the "falling away" and be able to stand before Jesus Christ at His return?
