Eighteen years ago, Rashin Soodmand's father was hanged in Iran for converting to Christianity. Now her brother is in a Mashad jail, and expects to be executed under new religious laws brought in this summer. Alasdair Palmer reports.
Read the article.
From the Telegraph in the UK.
Things I don't like.
Martyrdom. It isn't over. Not at all.
I can't stand to hear people who say our government is the same as governments like Iran's, or that Christianity is just like this false evil religion. It's demonic.
It is also doomed.
Jesus said:
In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.
I have said all these things to you to keep you from falling away. They will put you out of the synagogues. Indeed, the hour is coming when whoever kills you will think he is offering service to God.
The shame is, this story won't be printed in the US because it is Christians being killed. As it says:
Woe to those who call evil good
and good evil,
who put darkness for light
and light for darkness,
who put bitter for sweet
and sweet for bitter! (Is. 5:20)
...for your sake we are killed all the day long;
we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered. (Ps. 44:22)
But for Hossein Soodmand and his family? Well done, brothers and sisters. Well done
