Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, to the assembly of the Thessalonians in God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ:
    Paul uses the term "the day of the Lord" in his first epistle (1 Thessalonians 5:2) in the chapter following his discussion of the second coming. In the second epistle he speaks of "the day of Christ" (1 Timothy 2:2 "day of the Lord" ASV) saying that some were mistaken thinking "the day" was "at hand" and didn’t want them to be deceived.
