All the drama around the KPMG employee and the conspiracy the world is ending this week

Another day, another conspiracy theory that the world is ending this week and it’s all because a Christian theory right now is that the rapture is coming on the 23rd September 2025. Or the 24th September. They’re not fully sure, but they are sure that it’s coming this week. Someone very sure about it is a KPMG employee who has gone viral after sending an email allegedly to the entire company – which isn’t actually true – warning of the world ending. It’s all very dramatic, but here’s what’s going on with the latest world ending conspiracy and the entire viral saga of the KPMG employee alerting the entire company of the rapture.

The KPMG email went viral, from an employee in South Africa

The company wide email allegedly sent by a KPMG employee basically was a huge email to every employee in the massive company that warn the rapture is coming and the world is ending. The screenshots show a lot of the content, but there was also apparently a 170 page PDF attached to it too. Crikey. However, KPMG has confirmed that this did not actually go to the fully company.

The email says “Please save the attached PDF quickly before it’s too late I am a servant of Jesus Christ and I 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). Jesus will take the Christians who are ready (filled with the Holy Spirit and prayed up) between 23-24 September 2025 (Feast of Trumpets) – this is what no one knows the day or hour means (these ready Christians are not taken by aliens). This is the rapture.”

In an exclusive statement to The Tab, KPMG states: “KPMG in South Africa is aware of an unauthorised internal email that was circulated and has taken immediate steps to address the matter. The content does not reflect the firm’s values, and we firmly reject all forms of discrimination, including Islamophobia. We remain committed to fostering a respectful and inclusive workplace for all.”

The employee isn’t alone in her commitment to this theory

There are plenty of people peddling the conspiracy theory that the world is ending this week as well as the rapture touting KPMG employee – with one TikTok user sticking to it hard and it getting an audience of 1.4 million. So hard, she’s said she’s sold all her possessions except her car. Including signing over the deed to her house.

The rapture is a Christian belief that, at the end of days, all true believers will be suddenly taken up to heaven, leaving everyone else behind on Earth to face chaos and suffering. Depending on which version you hear, it’s described as millions of people disappearing in an instant — clothes, cars, and even planes left unmanned — while those who remain endure wars, disasters, and the rise of the Antichrist.

The idea isn’t explicitly spelled out in the Bible but comes from certain interpretations of passages like 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 (“caught up … in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air”). It’s been especially popular in American evangelical culture.

The thing that’s kind of the biggest reason why we can all sleep soundly tonight is that the rapture is famously meant to happen at a time when no one knows. So why this is happening this week is truly beyond me.
