Asteroid sparks ‘Star of Jacob’ Prophecy on TikTok
@jacobrutkowski1
On September 29, 2024, asteroid 2024 PT5 entered Earth’s orbit. TikToker Jacob Rutkowski quickly linked this to the “Star of Jacob” prophecy. Rutkowski claimed that this was the same star the wise men followed to meet the Messiah.
In his video, Rutkowski said, “They literally went to that star, found the Messiah, and worshipped him.”
The prophecy has split opinions across TikTok.
In the comment selection, some argue that the star the wise men followed is the “Star of Bethlehem.”
Others believe the “Star of Jacob” is not a literal star but a sign of the Messiah’s return.
Rutkowski agrees with the latter, suggesting the Messiah’s return is imminent.
One person said: Yes , he is coming… LORD count us worthy to escape the judgment that’s coming upon the whole world, Amen.
A second wrote: Lord Please open the eyes of my heart..please Lord Let THINE WILL Be Done in my life untill Completion inind body & soul..Lord my life is in THINE HAN.
Whie a third commented: God says show no fear,stand tall for he is with you always.
The Good Book is clear. No man shall know the hour or day of Our Lord’s return. As I recall, does it not say he shall return when those who watch for him are asleep? Another added.
Someone else said: It’s in the Bible that nobody but God – not even Jesus – knows when the Second Coming will be.
Emotional response and warnings from TikTokers
In his viral video, Rutkowski became emotional.
He warned that “this star is not just your ordinary star” and predicted Jesus would return “very soon.”

Jacob added, “I pray that every single one of you has a repented heart. He is on his way.”
The post has attracted various comments.
One user exclaimed, “He’s coming! Our King is coming!”
Another TikToker named Julian James also shared a video, claiming the Star of Jacob had reappeared for the first time in over 2,000 years.
James asked, “Is God giving us a sign that Jesus is going to return soon?”
Not everyone is convinced the star signals a divine event. A TikToker called @the.bible.teacher believes the “Star of Jacob” is metaphorical, citing Numbers 24:17. He interpreted the verse to mean that a “true and righteous king” will rise, not an actual star.
Some users have pointed out that the star people are seeing is Jupiter or Sirius. One commenter mentioned, “This is just the Sirius star, not a biblical sign.”
Despite the skepticism, sightings of the “Star of Jacob” have trended across TikTok. One user in the UK posted a video showing a bright light, claiming it was the prophesied star. Others zoomed in on various stars, captioning their videos with “Star of Jacob?”
Asteroid 2024 PT5’s journey
Asteroid 2024 PT5, which has triggered the speculation, was first spotted on August 7 by NASA.
It entered Earth’s orbit on September 29 and is expected to remain there until November 25.
Known as a “mini-moon,” it will make a single orbit around Earth before continuing its journey through the solar system.
In short, what did you this about this!
