This “second coming” was third rate!

The anticipated Rapture did not take place on Tuesday as forecasted by a so-called “prophet” in a viral video that led some of his followers to resign from their jobs, liquidate their belongings, and skip exams—and now the true believers are experiencing significant disappointment.

Devotees turned to social media on Wednesday to express their sorrow over the fact that Jesus did not return to Earth to elevate them to heaven as predicted by Joshua Mhlakela of South Africa, who gained attention through a YouTube video that went viral on TikTok.

“I didn’t sit for my exams as I believed it wouldn’t matter,” one disheartened follower posted on TikTok with a crying emoji, after coming to terms with the fact that the end wasn’t truly imminent. “Now look at me.”

A somber video posted by an apparent religious leader, titled “My Apologies,” also raked in a slew of regretful comments under the hashtag #rapturenow.

“I’m here with all humility to apologize to everyone who have [seen] me promote brother Joshua’s 23rd and 24th date of September rapture,” the man can be seen declaring in TikTok footage posted Wednesday.

Another apparent follower also posted footage of herself with tears streaming down her face as she brushed her hair.

“POV: You didn’t get raptured and now you have to get ready for work,” her caption proclaims.

In the original viral video, Mhlakela — who said he’s just a “simple person,” not a pastor  — claimed in June that Jesus came to him in a dream in 2018.

“God took me to see the future and then he brought me back,” he said, adding the Lord stated, “On the 23rd and the 24th of September, 2025, I will come to take my church.”

Mhlakela didn’t respond to messages sent by The Post on Wednesday.

His prediction tore through TikTok in recent days with the hashtag garnering more than 300,000 videos — as some followers scrambled to get ready for Jesus’ big appearance.

To prepare, some believers got rid of their cars, advised others not to make weekend plans and left their homes unlocked for those who aren’t “saved.”

Some evangelical Christians believe the Bible predicts the end-of-days event, known as the Rapture, which marks the beginning of the end of human history. The passage states Jesus will return and take followers up “to the clouds to meet the Lord in the air,” according to the Christian New Testament.

But even after it turned out that “the saved” weren’t headed to the pearly gates on Wednesday, some followers used the faulty prediction as further proof that a second coming is on the horizon.

“The Bible says there’ll be false prophets wen [sic] the time is near,” one believer wrote.

Another insisted, “Someone said it was delayed until next week.”
