Have you ever heard of a bank robbery in full daylight while there are customers at the bank? Yes, it happens with regularity.

Have you ever heard of a car jacking in full daylight in the middle of the street? Yes, it happens with regularity.

The fact that only ~some~ thieves use the cloak of darkness to carry out their thefts should not lead you to the conclusion that ~all~ thieves must ~necessarily~ be secretive or out of sight. That concept is actually logically invalid.

A thief ... in the night ?

Again, even a theif in the night need not be 'secretive'. He only need to be unexpected.

I'm expectant of a theif in the night at my home, that is why I have a means to protect my family ready for that possibility. Because I expect it, he won't succeed. He need not even be secretive, I will be expecting it.

But, if I didn't expect him, he could come with all the noise in the world -even at night- and I'd be his for the taking!

Your secret rapture still has no basis.
