According to The Sun: Failed predictions about the end of the world based on the biblical prophecy of the Rapture are spreading on social media.

The idea of “RaptureTok” emerged from a pastor in South Africa who claimed about an impending apocalypse on YouTube.

Joshua Mhlakella has gained attention due to his predictions that the Rapture will occur on September 23 and 24.

He claims to have received a vision from Jesus about the Second Coming.

Experts report that over 395,000 videos mentioning the word “Rapture” have been posted on TikTok in the last few days.

Google recorded a 5000% increase in queries related to the end of the world and the return of Jesus.

The Rapture refers to the Christian belief that one day Jesus will return and take all true believers to heaven, leaving others behind.

This phenomenon is often seen as a period before great troubles on Earth, known as the Great Tribulation.

Mhlakella assures that he is 'a billion percent' sure about his prophecy regarding the Rapture.

Some social media users take this prediction seriously, while others approach the potential apocalypse with a sense of humor.

“The Rapture is near, whether you are ready or not,” Mhlakella said in an interview on YouTube.

“I saw Jesus sitting on His throne and heard Him very clearly say, ‘I am coming soon.’”

The prophecy, which allegedly came to Mhlakella in a dream, has become the basis for the “RaptureTok” trend online.

The trend suggests that people offer other believers 'tips about the Rapture' on how to avoid the forthcoming chaos.

Users create montages with countdowns, biblical verses, and promote hashtags like #raptureready and #jesusiscoming.

Some supporters of this movement claim they are trying to prepare for the phenomenon by quitting their jobs and selling their homes and cars.

Others offer advice for 'traveling' and recommendations on how to help those 'left behind.'

Amid the panic, one Christian influencer emphasizes the importance of preparation: “Although there is no clear information in the Bible about what happens to your animals during the rapture, I believe they go with us.”

Other users try to ridicule the more evangelistic beliefs.

One commentator wrote: “I will take your car, I will take all your money. That’s the sacrifice I am ready to make.”

The word “rapture” does not appear in the Bible, but the idea is based on verses like 1 Thessalonians 4:15-17.

Some believe it will be secretive and sudden, while others think it will be part of Jesus's ultimate return.

This topic is often discussed in pop culture, especially in films such as Left Behind and television shows The Leftovers.
