The problem seems to be you dont think Paul and Peter are referring to the
SAME EVENT when both of them write of the day of the Lord coming like a thief.
What do we have? Two apostles of Jesus teaching two differing things? Or could it be they both are relaying to us what Jesus taught them?
The Old Testament is full of great truths. Jesus ordained apostles to teach us these things. If we follow
THEIR UNDERSTANDING of these great truths we will do well.
The things you are pointing out about "comings of the Lord in judgment"are well taken on my end. My contention is that if we allow Jesus and the apostles to direct our thinking about the topic of the "day of the Lord" we wont be led astray.
Jesus knew the Old Testament perfectly, being it's author.
