definition of "imminent" depends on your perspective. It's written that a 1000 years is as a day with the Lord, so from His perspective, it could still be 2000 years off, and still be "imminent".

It's written that no man knows the day or hour, but Jesus told us to recognize the season. There may well be prophecies like Israel returning as a nation, that precedes the rapture, that may identify the season, but it doesn't identify the day.

That is unlike the Mid-Trib people who believe Jesus returns 3.5 years after the 7 year peace treaty is signed. In such a case, you'd pretty accurately know when Jesus was returning, if you can spot the correct treaty being signed.
