Iran Upholds Harsh Sentences for Christians
Faith Facts
- Five Christians in Iran had their prison sentences upheld for engaging in faith activities.
- These believers faced intense pressure to renounce their faith and additional abuse during detention.
- Iran is ranked among the worst nations for Christian persecution, especially against converts.
The steadfast faith of Christ’s followers in Iran shines even while persecution increases.
Despite harsh treatment, these Christians refused to abandon their beliefs, standing firm on the foundation of their hope in Jesus.
Iran’s justice system continues to target those who do not conform to state religion, labeling simple acts of worship and discipleship as threats.
This oppression reflects the challenges Christian converts face under a regime that fears the liberating truth of the Gospel.
Historic Christian communities suffer discrimination and are denied the freedom to openly share the message of salvation in the native Persian language. Faithful Iranians must risk much just to gather, pray, or own a Bible.
American Christians are called to lift up their brothers and sisters across the world through prayer and advocacy. Standing for religious liberty defends not only the oppressed but upholds the Biblical value of freedom in Christ.
“The clear suggestion being made here is that all Evangelical Christians are associates of Mossad.”

God’s Hand Guides Justice as a Gang Killer’s Arrest Exposes Satanic Shadows Over Religious Freedom
Faith Facts
- Suspected MS-13 member Danny Antonio Granados-Garcia arrested in Connecticut for murdering Salvadoran pastor.
- Pastor killed after leading six gang members to Christ, defying satanic influences.
- FBI deporting suspect to El Salvador amid gang threats to religious freedom.
A suspected MS-13 gangster, Danny Antonio Granados-Garcia from El Salvador, faces deportation after FBI arrest in Waterbury, Connecticut. He is wanted for aggravated homicide in the murder of a pastor related to a police officer.
MS-13, born from Salvadoran immigrants in Los Angeles, spreads violence across borders, targeting believers who challenge their reign of terror.
“MS-13 members are notorious for their brutality, violence, and intimidation,” said FBI New Haven Special Agent in Charge P.J. O’Brien. “No matter how committed they are to creating chaos in our communities, the FBI and our law enforcement partners remain steadfast in our commitment to relentlessly pursue members and associates of MS-13 and obtain justice for the victims of their crimes.”
El Salvador’s gangs extort churches and murder clergy, yet President Nayib Bukele fights back, exposing their satanic worship.
“Many people don’t know that our enemy was not just the flesh and blood, but spiritual as well. The gangs didn’t just murder, rape, extort. They also worship Satan,” Bukele declared. “It’s straight up. Literally. When we went to their homes to arrest them, we discovered altars that were used for satanic rituals.”
This victory reminds us that faith conquers spiritual darkness, as Ephesians 6:12 urges warfare against evil forces. Pray for persecuted pastors and leaders upholding Biblical justice and secure borders for family safety.
