An Iranian pastor who has refused to renounce his Christian faith faces execution as early as Wednesday after his sentence was upheld by an Iranian court.
Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani, who maintains he has never been a Muslim as an adult, has Islamic ancestry and therefore must recant his faith in Jesus Christ, the 11th branch of Iran’s Gilan Provincial Court ruled. Iran’s Supreme Court had ordered the trial court to determine whether Nadarkhani had been a Muslim prior to converting to Christianity.
When will people see that Christians are the most persecuted people in the world? Bless this man and his strength. Bless this man and his faith.
 
Blessed be the Pastor, for his is the Kingdom of Heaven. Heavens will rejoice for those who chose death over betrayal. I’ll pray for him and many more who face the evil every second in this cruel world. May God give them the courage to follow Him to martyrdom!!!
