You seem to have an attitude, you did not respond to the last response.
are you here to petty squabble about faults or discuss.

There was nothing to answer that I didn't already answer

can you answer if 1 Thessalonians was for religious leaders who had not yet been born again and an unfinished letter

It's a simple question that doesn't warrant an insult about my character,
That you know nothing about

The Day of the Lord will be Glorious for those who know Him and call upon His name. ….but for those who don’t call upon Him and deny His name, it will be Great and Terrible.
…Selah

The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come. And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call.

- Joel 2:31-32 (KJV)
So we come down again to the timing of the Day of the Lord-when it will be both, terrible and glorious, and so when is the Day of the Lord?

It’s at the very end of this flesh age, right before the Millennium.

In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.

- 1 Corinthians 15:52-54 (KJV)

So, everything written about the Day of the Lord happens when the Lord returns?--what about all the things mentioned in Post #6

And I see you dont believe there will be any who lives into the millenium in the flesh?

I think that Paul had an understanding of being again, but I don't know about an unfinished letter, do you?
But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.

This is a letter that is being wrote

But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.
8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.
The whole letter is addressed to spiritual religious leaders to instruct those not born again, and those looking to obtain salvation

14 Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.
But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. This is a letter being wrote

But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.

What Christians need to put on love ?

8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.




The whole letter is addressed to spiritual religious leaders to instruct those not born again, and those looking to obtain salvation including the leaders

In Isaiah chapter 13, God describes the doom of the Babylon of this final generation.
Yes, I believe that when Jesus returns at the 7th trump, in the twinkling of an eye, we will be changed into spiritual bodies as we enter into the Millennium.

Looking at what is involved: Were the people of Thessalonica Paul's ltr (4-5) born again?

The Thessalonians - Their Situation, Circumstances and Challenges - Michael Hardt (biblecentre.org)

I would say yes and No, they were not born again, some had that spiritual revelation and some did not, like the Apostles, etc.
we got there in the end,

Paul also said to put on love,

Paul don't forget met Jesus on the way to Damascus.

It also very clear from many scriptures Paul was born again.

Now with Paul saying in 1 Thessalonians 5 put on love and faith . Was his letter finished ?

For what he had to say to the Thessalonians at that time, or where else we haven't viewed or overlooked yet, have you?
