Led by an evangelical pastor, they took refuge in the house and hung a sign stating “The second coming of Christ”.

In the resignation letter, he indicated that the decision was due to a “direct command which the Almighty Lord gave me” and said: “The power of the resurrection of Christ is about to be manifested in those who died believing in him, and eternal life manifests, the victory over the death which afflicted man during these six thousand years that he was on this Earth, on which hangs the curse of sin.

His supporters also quit their jobs to move to Isabel López’s house with their families.

Members of this group sold their property and stayed there.

Concerned neighbors lodged a complaint, but Atlantic Police Commander Col. Hugo Molano spoke to local media and clarified: “What we found there were three families. ‘there is no one obligated, that they all reside there and it is the place where other people go to listen to them. In addition, we saw that there were children who were subject to fasting and we recommend ending this scenario “.

Families were allowed to stay together in the house for the freedom of worship that prevails in Colombia.
