Christian life under the shadow of the regime's repression

The lives of Christians, under the shadow of repression by regime elements, are facing greater hardships every day than in the past.
Christians who were born into Muslim families and then converted to Christianity upon learning the truth have unfortunately been targeted by the repressive and discriminatory policies and actions of the Iranian government and its leaders.
Not only are they deprived of the right to worship the true God in their native language, but in many cases, after being identified, they are arrested, harassed, tortured, their property confiscated without compensation, and in some cases, even murdered under suspicious circumstances.
Many of them have been attacked by regime agents after attending house church services, arrested, and sent to prison on trumped-up charges, including acting against national security. In some cases, they have been threatened and forced to renounce Christianity.
Since the protests began, more Christians have been threatened and even killed. They are not only deprived of the right to a lawyer during their detention, but in many cases, they have also been deprived of education. The cases mentioned are while if someone from other religions converts to Islam, not only will there be no consequences, but they will be strongly protected, but a Muslim who converts to other religions - which is most inclined towards Christianity and the true God - is accused of apostasy, and according to the hadiths of Shiite imams, the punishment for apostates is death.
It should be noted that, according to Ali Khamenei's statements in recent years, a Muslim who converts to and follows one of the Abrahamic religions will be considered an apostate. Ayatollah Makarem Shirazi has also issued a ruling on apostasy regarding these individuals.
Christians, who have accounted for the largest number of arrests in recent months, are subject to unjust sentences, in addition to apostasy, such as insulting sacred places, acting against national security, collaborating with the enemy, and the like. However, Christians, relying on the true God, have not abandoned their faith, but their numbers are increasing every day, and this has made the regime and its agents fearful because they consider it a factor in the fall of Islam, which will lead to the fall of the regime's rule.
