All the ‘Biblical signs’ pointing to the Rapture coming TOMORROW as believers spread fears the end is nigh
Fears are mounting that an ancient Biblical event where countless Christians disappear from Earth is just hours away.
Believers on social media platforms like TikTok have reached the point of hysteria over this prophecy, expressing their excitement for the end of days and even offering tips on how to handle being lifted into the sky to meet their maker.
The phenomenon, dubbed RaptureTok, has exploded in recent weeks after faith leaders started pushing the idea that the Rapture will begin on September 23, marking the Second Coming of Jesus and Judgment Day for non-believers.
Although the Bible never set a date for this event, and Christians have been actively discouraged from attempting to set dates for the Rapture throughout history, many have claimed the signs are there on Tuesday.
‘What are we going to see whenever the sky literally opens up and then we go up? I don’t know, but I can’t wait to find,’ one believer said in a YouTube video on Sunday.
Others have been claiming they’ve had visions or experienced strange coincidences involving the number 923 in their daily routine.
Some RaptureTok videos have received tens of thousands of views, including one where a man kept repeatedly saying ‘Jesus is coming’ next to the caption ‘these are the last days’. It has been watched more than 488,000 times.
Even respected pastors and rabbis have pointed out other signs that the Rapture could be nearing, including its aligning with the Jewish Feast of Trumpets and certain star constellations converging, which some interpret as fulfilling biblical prophecies.

Believers that the Rapture will come on September 23 have pointed to the twelfth chapter in the Book of Revelation and astrological signs connecting them
Despite the Rapture becoming a viral sensation this month, many faith leaders and biblical scholars have continued to caution against an apocalyptic surprise tomorrow.
The prophecy mentioned in the Bible, 1 Thessalonians 4:16, states that even the faithful who have died will rise from their graves and be taken to heaven by Jesus.
Vladimir Savchuk, a pastor, author, and YouTube preacher, further debunked the September 23 claims, adding that scripture says the son of perdition must be revealed first, referring to a figure often interpreted as the Antichrist.
‘2 Thessalonians 2:3, it says clearly Jesus is not returning until Antichrist is revealed, and that has not happened yet,’ Savchuk said in a video for his 2.19million subscribers.
‘So, if someone sets the date, they are directly contradicting Jesus’s word,’ he added.
Jonathan Cahn, a messianic rabbi who combines Jewish heritage and practices with the belief that Jesus is the Messiah, explained why people are likely misinterpreting a link between Revelation 12 and a specific alignment of stars in Virgo and Leo.
Revelation 12 is a chapter in the Book of Revelation, describing apocalyptic visions, including a woman clothed with the sun, a dragon, and a child, often interpreted as symbolizing Israel, Satan and the Messiah.
Cahn argued on YouTube that the 2017 alignment of the Virgo constellation (symbolizing the woman, interpreted as Israel) and Leo (linked to 12 stars acting as a crown) didn’t trigger the Rapture eight years ago and lacks support for predicting one in 2025.

‘What I see is a problem, an alignment that doesn’t really seem to mean much,’ Cahn said of the astrological claims surrounding September 23.
‘It’s been said by those supporting this argument that this alignment almost never occurs. Well, astronomers have said that it has occurred several times in the last thousand years and nothing happened that we know of,’ the rabbi added.
The September 23 prophecy gained worldwide attention after Pastor Joshua Mhlakela, a South African preacher, claimed Jesus appeared to him in a divine vision and said he would return during the Feast of Trumpets.
Some have been so convinced by his prophecy that they have posted online about selling their homes, giving away their belongings, and wrapping up all of their affairs before Tuesday.
However, many Christians have remained steadfast that humans won’t know when the Rapture begins and have been taught to avoid seeking out the date of this biblical event.
Speaking to the Daily Mail, members of Grace Church in New Jersey explained how scripture points to specific world events, which have yet to come, rather than exact dates and times when discussing the Rapture.
These include the the formation of a ‘united one world government,’ a new temple being constructed in Jerusalem and the creation of a religious system interconnected with a monetary system that follows a so-called ‘world leader’.
