...In recent months, we have witnessed profound changes within Iranian church communities. Many who once participated in worship with passion are now wrestling with difficult questions, doubts, and even despair. Some have distanced themselves from the church, others are experiencing spiritual burnout, and many quietly carry the burden of grief and concern for their loved ones in Iran.
A pressing question has emerged in many hearts: “How is it that we are under pressure from the Iranian government, and at the same time, this conflict has brought us no hope or relief?” These questions are real and cannot simply be dismissed.
The church is now entering one of the most difficult and unfamiliar seasons it has ever faced—a season that many have never experienced before. For some, however, this moment echoes earlier times when the church in Iran endured severe pressure. When believers were arrested, gatherings were restricted, and a deep sense of isolation prevailed. During those times, churches could not continue as before, and many believers faced profound spiritual crises.
Today, a similar situation is unfolding on a broader scale. The people of Iran are under pressure from every side, and this pressure directly impacts believers as well. Despair, grief, unanswered questions, and withdrawal from fellowship have become the lived reality for many.
Yet this condition is not merely a sign of weak faith; it can also indicate that faith is entering a deeper stage of testing...
And perhaps, in these very difficult days, a deeper kind of faith is being formed. One that is no longer dependent on circumstances, but is deeply rooted in trust in God.

Give them guns.
Are you hoping we succeed in liberating them?
The Iranian masses are terrified because Trump prematurely told them to go out and rampage.
They did.
The war started later, after ~35,000 citizens were massacred by their own regime.
We gave the regime time to crack down and murder.
Now they are living each day under the threat of mass murder.
Will they wake up to the challenge?
Only if we flood the citizenry with AUTOMATIC weapons.
“””””Trump prematurely told them to go out and rampage.””””””
He told them that? What did he say?
“Are you hoping we succeed in liberating them? “
Like the Christians of Iraq, Libya and Syria have been “liberated” ?
Every Regime-Change war which Israel has insisted on has hurt the Christians of those countries.
After 911, Israel wanted seven Regime changes: “Iraq, and then Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and, finishing off, Iran.”
In every one, Christians in those countries have been the losers.
Your people’s opinion doesn’t matter for my country.
