Katechon
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Eastern Orthodox tradition considers him to come at the time of the End of the World, when the 'katechon' (the one who restrains) will be taken out. Some understand 'katechon' as an Orthodox emperor, some as a secret mysterious organization, that keeps on restraining the Evil after the fall of all Orthodox empires. For the reference look Second Epistle to the Thessalonians, 2, 1-15.
