The sign of the Son of Man in Matt. 24.30 is intriguing. Apophis comes within satellite distance of earth on April 13, 2029. The last time an asteroid of this size hit earth was 80,000 years ago. It is 3 1/2 football fields in length.
And it returns back to earth April 13, 2036 seven years later or 2558 days exactly.
"Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee." (Rev. 3.3)
If you are not watchful that explains why you won't know what hour Jesus is to come upon thee. You would need to be watchful and prayerful to figure out when Jesus returns.
Partial rapture teaches the first rapture is according to readiness, giving us wonderful hope if we are prayerful and watchful in Luke 21.36 and Rev. 3.10 to escape the our of trial that is to come upon the whole world.
