Iranian Christians face shocking persecution. The Islamic regime brutally targets believers with violence and imprisonment. This crackdown shows the government’s deep fear of Christianity’s growth.
Christian converts suffer most under Iran’s cruel laws. Authorities view them as traitors to Islam and Western spies. Hundreds face violent arrests and torture just for practicing their faith.
Courts hand down outrageous prison sentences for “crimes against national security.” Judges openly insult Christians in sham trials. One judge told a believer: “It’s a disgrace that you are even breathing the air in this sacred courtroom.”
Iran’s persecution has skyrocketed in the past year. Prison sentences jumped six-fold to 263 years for 96 believers in 2024 alone. Security forces confiscate Christian property and impose crippling fines.
Women endure horrific treatment for their faith. Female converts risk sexual harassment during interrogations and forced marriages. Many face domestic violence if their husbands remain Muslim.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps monitors Christians constantly. They ban Persian-language worship and prohibit converts from joining traditional churches. Bibles are treated as illegal contraband.
One brave Christian shared: “We live under constant surveillance and face different kinds of pressure. It’s a daily battle to keep our faith in such hostile conditions.” Her courage inspires others.
This religious persecution reveals the regime’s weakness. They fear Christianity’s spread because truth threatens their power. Iran’s brutality won’t stop the Church’s growth – it only proves Christ’s message is powerful.
