“Devastating news of the passing of a true warrior of the faith Voddie Baucham. He was one of thee most powerful preachers I've ever sat under. My thoughts and prayers are with his wife and Kids. What a loss,” Reformist pastor Mark Ralston wrote on X.
“In light of the death of Voddie Baucham, I am wondering if the Rapture is actually going to be a one-by-one event instead of all the saints being called into the sky together,” said one, adding, “Sure seems to be a lot of quality folks heading home lately. Just my opinion, though.”
“Voddie Baucham passed away. May God have mercy on his soul on that last day. If it was not for men like him I would be no kind of Christian today,” added another.
