May God bless you. I will briefly state that I have been a refugee in Turkey for 10 years and since I believed in Jesus Christ, I have engaged in Christian activities according to the word of God, including educational, evangelistic and missionary activities and enlightenment of the word of the Lord Jesus Christ. God has commanded us and instructed us that the greatest commandment is to give the good news of salvation to others. Matthew 28:18-19 asked us to preach the word of God. John 15-16 asked us to preach the good news and bear fruit. And there are many verses in the Bible where Jesus Christ says that we should preach, teach and enlighten, and not only want the good news of salvation for ourselves, but also to communicate it to others so that they too can know the truth. According to the duty that the word of God has given us, we must give the good news of salvation that we have received to others. Therefore, my activities have put my life in great danger. At any moment, it is possible that I will be taken back to my country. They will return and these Christian activities of mine will result in severe punishments for me in the Islamic country of Iran, and therefore I am asking for your guidance and help. I ask you to help me. If I do not seek help from you, my Christian brothers and sisters, who should I seek help from? I have been waiting for your help in Turkey for 10 years, Christians, but now my extremely dangerous case has been rejected by the anti-Christian Muslims of Turkey and I may be sent back to Iran at any moment. The anti-Christian Muslims of Turkey do not care about us Christians and our authority is completely in the hands of these Muslims. I ask you Christians not to let me be punished by the anti-Christian Muslims for my faith and beliefs and for acting on the word of the Lord Jesus Christ. I ask you, Christians, if you consider me to be part of your flock, if you consider me to be one of the lost sheep of your flock, do not let me be taken into the clutches of these wolves who prey on my soul. Please help me and do not let me be punished for these reasons because I acted on the word of God and preached the Gospel and enlightened and taught the word of God. God says that our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit and we should not hand over this body that God created to the wolves, but we must strive to save this soul and body. Please listen to my voice and come to my aid. May God bless you. Amin
