A Nigerian prophet has come under intense scrutiny after his prediction that the rapture and the end of the world would coincide on April 25, 2024, failed to materialise.

Despite proclaiming to have been shown the date through divine revelations during trances, the prophet’s claims have sparked a mixture of ridicule and criticism across social media platforms.

The prophet, with the handle @Prophetmetu on X, claimed he experienced the visions on two separate occasions, expressed his own trepidation about the revelations.

In his statement, he emphasised the clarity of his visions, where he saw two distinct mountains and felt a strong divine message. He urged both believers and skeptics alike to prepare for the imminent event.

“If you like take it serious, if you like don’t take it serious, but this is real: rapture is coming on the 25th of April, 2024. I saw it very clear. I saw the date very clear, the Lord ministered it to me twice, it has happened twice,” he declared.

As the day progressed with no signs of the prophesied rapture, social media users began to question the timing and validity of the prediction, leading to widespread discussions about the reliability of such prophetic claims in modern times.

An X user, @LereecalSnipper, humorously remarked on the possibility of the event still occurring later in the day: “Today never finish o, e fit still happen for night. Just imagine say you just vanish when you just alight bus, wan pay conductor, wo! Agbero go bring you back with juju.”

Others questioned the theological accuracy of the prophet’s claims, referencing biblical scriptures that state even Jesus and the angels are not privy to the exact date of the rapture. “Lol. Did God say not even the Angels know the day of the rapture? Una go just wake up one morning dey yarn dust up and down. May the lord forgive you bro,” tweeted @mordi_divine.

@omtoyosi08 expressed disbelief in the persistence of rapture predictions in the modern age, “I can’t believe in 2024 people are still talking about rapture. The world has been in existence for about 38,000 years.”

Lol

Are u sure it's not his own rapture that's coming to an end?

By merely looking at his face, you can tell this one is a Yahoo boy. All religious leaders are scammers but this one is DRIPPING scammer energy all over the place.

The funniest thing about this is that his church will still be packed full of "clients" on Sunday.

The 'Prophet' tried...

He just wanted to trend.

Forgive him

He has spiritual wife that's disturbing him

Christians, always hearing voices in their heads. Dem don turn to Randy Orton.
