'Pressure continues to grow on registered churches and house churches in Iran. The authorities have arrested up to ten house church Christians who have converted from Islam, and an Assemblies of God pastor.
Police raided the house church in the southern city of Shiraz on February 8. The same day, they arrested Pastor Maasis Mosesian, in Tehran. The pastor, who is Armenian, is married with two children.
The authorities have also forbidden two other churches in Tehran from holding Farsi language services on Friday, the main day for Christian worship.
The ruling means the authorities have now put a halt to every significant Farsi language service in the capital.' [Release International.]
Self explanatory title. I abhor that nicey nicey, politically correct, pseudo-Christianity which almost always supports leftwing attitudes - which in most cases are profoundly anti-Gospel. This Blog supports persecuted Christians. This Blog exposes cults. This Blog opposes junk science. UPDATED DAILY. This is not a forum. This Blog supports truly Christian websites and aids their efforts. It is hardhitting and unashamedly evangelical so if it offends - please do not come to this site!
