Update: Persecuted Iranian Pastor -- Christian Pastor Yousef Nadarkhani

Persecuted Iranian Pastor -- Christian Pastor Yousef Nadarkhani is still alive, but his life still hangs in the balance as Iranian authorities have added yet a new twist. Cleared by the Supreme Court of apostasy, which carries a death sentence, Pastor Nadarkhani was returned to the court that originally convicted him, for further prosecution. Now, from thin air, Nadarkhani has been charged with rape and other crimes. Advocacy groups are asking believers everywhere to appeal to the Iranian Ambassador and courts.

May God intervene to save Pastor Nadarkhani, protect his family and stop the persecution of Christians in Iran and other Muslim nations! (Ps 56:11; 91: all; Is 54:71; Mt 10:19; Acts 16:23-31; 25:ll; Rev 2:10)
