> Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani never practiced the Muslim faith and converted to
> Christianity at age 19, becoming a pastor later. But the courts say that
> since his mother and father *
>
> *were practicing Muslims, he must recant his Christian faith or die. So
> far, in three court appearances, he has refused to do so - RISKING
> EXECUTION AT ANY MOMENT.  *
>
> *The Iranian Supreme Court often acts quickly in administering the death
> penalty.*
>
>
>
> *According to a report, when asked by judges to "repent," Youcef replied:
> "Repent,  What should I return to? To the blasphemy that I had before my
> faith in Christ?"
>
> The judges replied: "To the religion of your ancestors - Islam." To which
> Yousef replied: "I cannot."
>
> It's time for the body of Christ to act, to pray, to plead for the life of
> our Brother before Christ so that His servant may be spared. *
>
> *This is what you are asked/called to do. As soon as you receive this
> email, PRAY IMMEDIATELY. *
>
> *Forward to your Church so that they may all pray too. Then forward this
> PRAYER REQUEST to every CHRISTIAN you know so that they may pray also.
