1 Kings 18
21 And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the Lord be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word.
1 Reyes 18
21 Y acercándose Elías a todo el pueblo, dijo: ¿Hasta cuándo claudicaréis vosotros entre dos pensamientos? Si Jehová es Dios, seguidle; y si Baal, id en pos de él. Y el pueblo no respondió palabra.
Halt / claudicar: (hbr. pāsaḥ): ignore or pass from far.
Keanu Reeves matrix teenager girl “who cares?” If it’s fun it’s “ok” How Christians should make a decision:
James 1
19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath
Santiago 1
19 Mis queridos hermanos, tengan presente esto: Todos deben estar listos para escuchar, y ser lentos para hablar y para enojarse.
In other words pay attention to details.

Economy:
Does the candidate’s economic plan fight inequality or poverty?
God does not call us to vote for an economic plan that fights inequality but one that fights poverty.
2 Examples:
Mark 14:7 (Jesus is anointed in Bethany – there will always be poverty)
Matthew 25:14-30 (Parable of the talents – he gives them according to their administrative ability)
The only effective government social program to eliminate poverty is called jobs.
Jesus sends Peter to fish (work)
Matthew 17
27 …go to the sea, cast in a hook, and take the fish that comes up first. And when you have opened its mouth, you will find a piece of money; take that and give it to them for Me and you.” Mateo 17
27 …ve al mar, y echa el anzuelo, y el primer pez que saques, tómalo, y al abrirle la boca, hallarás un estatero; tómalo, y dáselo por mí y por ti.
What about the Ecology?
For Christians is important but not a priority.
Matthew 24:35 Heaven and earth will pass away
Revelation 21
1 Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea.
Apocalipsis 21
1 Vi un cielo nuevo y una tierra nueva; porque el primer cielo y la primera tierra pasaron, y el mar ya no existía más.
Questions we should make:
The economical plan:
Fights poverty or inequality?
(Singapore unequal market (poor person earning $4000)) Promoting private enterprise? (Jobs)
Creates a big government? The government cannot be the largest company in the country (Taxes) weak market.
Morality
Defends the family?
Gen.2:24 (Nuclear Family man and women) Jesus reaffirms it in Mark 10:6-7
Defends life?
Does it protect freedom of worship or regulate the church?
Constitutionality
Defend the constitution of our country? Immigration
Free speech
Right to bear arms?
Strengthens the police, firefighters, army?
Spirituality
Protects the principles on which this society was founded (Judeo-Christian)
Protege la libertad de culto?
Psalm 33
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, The people He has chosen as His own inheritance. Salmos 33
12 Bienaventurada la nación cuyo Dios es Jehová, El pueblo que él escogió como heredad para sí.
El Salvador in 2021, the economy made a miraculous leap of 11.2%, then 2.6% in 2022 and 2.7% in 2023… it’s projected that in 2024 it will grow by 4%. It’s no longer on the list of places to avoid due to insecurity
Be against globalism (antichrist)
God spoke to me about 2024 Matthew 24
43 But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into.
Mateo 24
43 Pero sabed esto, que si el padre de familia supiese a qué hora el ladrón habría de venir, velaría, y no dejaría minar su casa.
The Church cannot let their guard down.
Since 2014 the Lord told me “if the church does not pray you will see electoral fraud multiply” (Example: Costa Rica)
For a God-fearing government to rise, the people must cry out. God has already determined the government for our land but…
Matthew 11
12 And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.
Mateo 11
12 Desde los días de Juan el Bautista hasta ahora, el reino de los cielos sufre violencia, y los violentos lo arrebatan.
