After former Generations: The Legacy actress Mahlatse Letoka alleged that a rapture would occur on 23 September, 2025 via an email to her KPMG colleagues across the globe, many have shared their serious and humorous takes on the situation.
Nicholas, a long-haired TikTok user who many felt bore a resemblance to the portrayal of Jesus Christ, took the comical route when asked about the rapture.
The day before the scheduled rapture, someone on social media asked Nicholas:
"Lord, should we go to work tomorrow, or are you fetching us?"
Responding to the person on his account, Nicholas said nothing but responded comically with facial expressions, looking the person up and down and rolling his eyes on screen.
He added in his caption:
"How would anyone know?"
Mahlatse Letoka's alleged email to KPMG staff
A screenshot of the alleged email, which X user @Thando______ shared on the app, showed that Mahlatse, who switched from acting scripts to scripture, referred to herself as Jesus Christ's servant, adding:
"I'd rather get fired than watch my colleagues go through this. Listen, World War 3 is coming, and this entire economy is about to collapse (New York is likely to go down first)."
She noted that Jesus would take the Christians who were ready between 23 and 24 September, 2025 and attached a PDF titled 'Notes on the Gospel of Jesus Christ.'

@leonardmorake5 shared with the public:
"I want to laugh, but financially I’m stuck in Nigeria with a bottle of Sprite."
Finding humour in the post, @plumlover5 remarked with a laugh:
"You have a big day, and you need to get some rest. I wish I had a trumpet for you, but I don’t play any instruments."
A serious @annenziokikatile told the online community:
"We are joking like this, but one day it will happen for real. The best thing is to accept Jesus Christ, live right, and wait for His day."
