The rapture is predicted by some, notably South African pastor Joshua Mhlakela, to happen around September 23-24, 2025. This date aligns with the Jewish holiday Rosh Hashanah, also known as the Feast of Trumpets, and has sparked widespread discussion and preparation among some evangelical Christians online. However, mainstream Christian teachings emphasize that the exact day and hour of the rapture are unknowable, citing biblical passages where even Jesus said no one knows the timing except God the Father. Thus, while there is significant buzz about the rapture potentially happening on these dates in 2025, this is based on individual predictions and not a universally accepted or confirmed event among Christians.
