Iran is the world's leading sponsor of
international terrorism. But did you know the
Islamic Republic is also the one country where
Christianity is growing the fastest in the world?
Mike Ansari of "Heart4Iran" spoke with CBN
News' George Thomas and Emily Jones about
how God is moving powerfully inside this
Muslim nation.
Iran's hardline government has sentenced four
Christians to harsh prison terms for putting
their faith in Jesus Christ.
Pastor Victor Bet-Tamraz and his wife
Shamiram Issavi, who are ethnic Assyrian
Christians, and Amin Afshar Naderi and Hadi
Asgari, who are Christian converts from Islam,
were sentenced to a combined total of 45
years in prison for allegedly conducting "illegal
church activities" and spreading propaganda
which reportedly "threaten national security."
"These Christians were solely arrested for
practicing their Christian faith, including
attending Christmas gatherings and organizing
house churches," Mike Ansari of Heart4Iran ,
told CBN News .

DON’T LOSE HOPE When God wants to visit you, He makes a dry place (wilderness) to become a fruitful ground. Our God specializes in doing new things. Forget what you have passed through before now; God will do a new thing. He will open up a new chapter in your life now in Jesus name! Isaiah 43: 18-19 -Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert. No matter how battered and shattered your life was before now, God said He will do a new thing beginning from now. In the same area where men and women have completely written you off, God will visit you if you believe it in the name of Jesus! Genesis 21:1,7 - And the LORD visited Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did unto Sarah as he had spoken. And she said, who would have said unto Abraham, that Sarah should have given children suck? For I have bor...

Officials spared nothing, destroying the altars, benches and furnishings. “The disproportionate manpower used to demolish this church goes to show that China is fearful of Christians,” said Gina Goh, ICC’s regional manager. “The government knew that the demolition in the name of urban zoning would be met with resistance, so it ensured succes...
