Summary report on persecution of Iranian Christians in 2009
Last years, with the start of the year 2009, Farsi Christian News Network reported that Mr. Carl Muller of the Open Door Ministries had stated that, "based on existing reports we predict that in 2009 the Christians around the world will, in the name of false gods and philosophies, be persecuted more than ever before".
He added that, "we are not seers and can not see into the future, but we feel that brutality and persecution of Christians, especially in parts of the world like the Middle East, is on the rise."
Moreover, in this report by the Open Door Ministries, the list of countries with the worst human rights records towards Christians is published annually. In 2009, passing the previously second ranked Saudi Arabia and only outpaced by North Korea, was the Islamic Republic of Iran.
