Amir began his career as a member of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard (IRGC), a vast intelligence network tasked with protecting Iran’s Islamic identity. He adopted the harsh methods that the organization encouraged to enforce a strict Islamic ideology, especially on Christians.

He participated in the beating, torture, interrogation, and imprisonment of Christians. Little did he know that he would eventually become one.

Like Saul, who murderously pursued Christians before becoming a believer himself, Amir’s life was radically transformed by Christ. But he was in too deep with the IRGC – they knew too much about him for him to safely stay in the country. He fled Iran and committed himself to ministering to the very ones he once persecuted.

I am a Christian from Kaduna state Nigeria and this report is false. First Fulani Muslims have been attacking our villages long before election and the Muslim governor Nasir El-rufai did little to nothing about it because the victims are mainly Christians rather he arrested and imprisoned some of our youths and elders in the community for speaking and try to defend ourselves. Now the same Christian community whom he unlawfully detain their leaders for more than 100 days without any evidence and were just release few weeks ago is the same community the go government decided to organise a Kangaroo "Peace and reconciliation foundation and project" without the engagement of the community leaders. As I'm writing this there is one community elder still in detention and some youths. Now tell who is reconciling with who? The same widows who children are still in detention? Or is the Fulani Muslims whom none is arrested? This a friend whom Dad was among those unlawfully kept in prison for more than 100 days Alheri Magaji you can verify from her what I said and many more persecution and genocide happening in Kaduna State Nigeria against Christians. I am sure she is available for video calls if you wish to also speak with many of the victims

My immediate thought was 2 Cor. 6:14 "...what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?"

Green Walk- looks like an environmental walk.

Not all Muslims are bad , God Bless 🙏

This is pure lies from the pit of Hell. God have mercy on this reporter for spreading lies.

Are the extremists among them? If not then the killings will not stop...

apparently this is so not true..

Muslims are trying to convert the Christians

Well....prepare for ur burials coz that's ticket to death

Sorry but whats wrong with some people. When did reconciliation of any kind become a bad thing. Blessed are the peace makers full stop.

Wish so much that this were true...but the locals there say otherwise. ☹️

This not the solution. Those Muslim should fight the Fulani Jihadis

Hopefully it’s genuine and not for conversion.

Taqiyya

These are the good Muslims o, the ones Nigeria has problem with is the extremists I hope the Christian women took time to tell them about Jesus

Strategy to get the Christians to convert???

Not sure if truly reconciliation...their religion forbids infidel acceptance.

I hope this is the first step towards a lasting solution.

North Nigeria must separate from Nigeria

Is that any conjunction between light and darkness?

Finally, a good news story.

So as I suspected it's all a sham to trick the world. Can never expect friendships and kindness from these people. The world doesn't care if the victims are Christians. Woe to Christians living in Islamic countries, only a few Islamic countries are still relatively safe for Christians. ICC please validate before posting , you are trivializing their sufferings.

It would be good to live in peace... but a far off dream

The Love of God changes hearts!!!
