Pray! Pst Saeed Abedini refuses to deny Christ after being told his only way out is to deny Jesus:Please read this
This brought tears to my eyes. Please let's pray for this wonderful Pastor who has refused to deny his faith despite persecutions. I have never been so proud and I am so sure his Lord is prouder. But for the sake of his wife and young children, may God set him free from the Iranian Prisons. If you are touched, please share and let's raise a prayer to God for Pastor Abedini's freedom.
Pastor Saeed Abedini is an American Pastor from Iran who converted from Islam to Christianity.Back in May, Abedini marked his 35th birthday in prison, where he has spent over two and a half years for his Christian faith. He was arrested in Iran in 2012 while working on an orphanage for children, and later sentenced to eight years in prison. His wife has been going about for the past years pleading for further actions to be taken to help free her husband. According to Christian Post, the pastor was viciously beaten by fellow prisoners in an unprovoked attack in the Iranian prison where he's being held. The pastor was punched in the face, leaving his eyes beaten black and blue, but prison guards intervened and prevented further injury.
The Pastor's wife said that Abedini has been told his prison sentence will be increased unless he denies his Christian faith — something she insists her husband will not do. Saeed Abedini has refused to deny Christ while imprisoned, but suffers daily for his faith.
"He has been tortured, especially the first few months he was beaten badly when internal bleeding started. He refuses to deny his Christian faith; they are putting him in and out of solitary to break him. I'm not worried just about his physical pain, but his psychological. They want, when they release Saeed, to release a very sick person. Time is of the essence,” Abedini said."It is heartbreaking to me and my family that Saeed was again beaten in prison. Saeed's life is continuously threatened not only because he is an American, but also because he is a convert from Islam to Christianity. It's time to get Saeed home before it is too late,"

*Tears* Please let's pray for Pastor Saeed Abedini. As God delivered Peter, Paul and Silas from prison , let his deliverance come forth. May God bless his family and give them strength to endure in this trying times. Also pray for persecuted Christians around the world and in Nigeria. If this is not the sign of the end, I wonder what is...
