Iranian Woman Learns Truth- Persecuted Christian

Missionaries that came to my church told us this story. muslims around the world who learn the Truth are persecuted simply for their conversion to Christianity.

On June 3, a newly converted Christian couple was arrested by police for holding Bible studies with Muslims in their home and attending a house church, according to a June 25 report from Compass Direct. Makan Arya (31) and Tina Rad (28) were seized from their home in east Tehran after one of Makan's relatives informed security police of the couple's Christian activities. Their four-year-old daughter was left behind, ill and unattended. The couple was taken to an unknown jail where they were severely beaten and interrogated for four days. Makan was accused of "activities against national security" and Tina of "activities against the holy religion of Islam." The authorities threatened to take their daughter away to a religious institution and warned them that they could be imprisoned on charges of apostasy or fabricated drug charges if they didn't stop their Christian work.

Eventually the couple was pressured into signing a statement claiming they had not changed their religion from Islam and promising that they would stay away from their house church and other Christians. After a court hearing, Makan was freed on bail charges of $20,000 (CAD) and Tina upon payment of $30,000 (CAD). The couple returned home to find that the window of their shop had been smashed by local Muslims. On June 23, Makan received a letter threatening him with continued attacks if he did not put up evidence of his Islamic faith on the front of his shop, to which he responded by hanging pictures of Muslim leaders on his window.

Ask God to strengthen the hearts of these believers to proclaim His Name without hesitation or fear (2 Timothy 1:5). Pray for healing, especially for Tina who currently cannot walk as a result of her mistreatment in detention.

God loves all people including Muslims. That is why that He gave His only son that whosoever believe in Him would not parish but have an everlating life. Cheers, from a former Muslim but now I am free in Christ. God bless you.

Jesus talks with me inside my mind. Not the words that you can hear with your human ears. he talks with me through my own tongue talking to myself. I am an Iranian catholic. so many Iranians have come to Christ. If you believe him in heart and become mature you will hear his words in your mind. If you want to know what is fake religion just visit my site at my profile.

Jesus is the ONLY way, born the eldest son of a muslim, I was also revealed the truth and it is ONLY through The Christ. This story is directly aligned with the older stories when Jesus was in the flesh, because it did not matter who you were and it is the same today, Jesus said ''If you humble yourself, (like this lady did), you will be exalted'', there's a reason he said it, because it's actually true, who will listen and get rid of their own pride I wonder?

Islam resorts to violence because they can never speak the truth. Jesus is the Truth.

Everything in the quran makes it look like the God of the Torha and the bible a liar.. So how can they say they worship the God of abraham, issac, and jacob.? they dont they just think they do
