Romans
8:29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to
be
conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the
firstborn among many brethren.
The
point is that Jesus knew before the foundation of the world
who would choose Him in every generation! These Who He knew
would choose Him he there predestinated to be His children!
This
is free will choice & grace! Its also somehow also Both
choice and election! Gets really deep here 
The
Enduring Word commentary says:
c.
For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to
the image of His Son: The eternal chain of Gods working is
seen in the connection between foreknew, predestined,
called, justified, and glorified. God didnt begin a work in
the Romans simply to abandon them in the midst of their
present suffering.
i. Paul is saying that God is
the author of our salvation, and that from beginning to end.
We are not to think that God can take action only when we
graciously give him permission.Morris
ii. Of course I believe in
predestination, since its plainly taught in the Scriptures.
The doctrine could be assumed, even if the word was never
explicitly used. Its a thrilling truth that doesnt upset me
at all. The fact that He chose me and began a good work in
me proves that He will continue to perform it. He would not
bring me this far and then dump me.Smith
d. To be conformed to the
image of His Son: However, our participation in this eternal
plan is essential, reflected in its goal: that we might be
conformed to the image of His Son; and this is a process
that God does with our cooperation, not something He just
does to us.
e. That He might be the
firstborn among many brethren: This is the reason
for Gods plan. He adopts us into His family for the purpose
of making us like Jesus Christ, similar to Him in the
perfection of His humanity.
Romans
8;25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of
this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits;
that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the
fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
Quite
simple actually when you think about it !
The
point is that the fullness of the Gentiles literally means the
full NUMBER of the gentiles who will come to Jesus...
The
application here is that the moment that the last gentile
comes to Jesus, the Rapture happens!
Put
another way, Jesus knows the name of everyone who will
freewill choose Him, and the moment the last person accepts
Jesus, the Trumpet will sound!
So
Inho -and that of many scholars -the timing of the rapture has
absolutely nothing to do with feasts, stars in the sky, moons
planets numbers or anything else!
Jesus
says that His sheep hear His Voice, and All his sheep will
follow him. John 10:27.. and that we are safe in his hand
