What are your thoughts about what the war with Iran is likely to accomplish for the Christians there? Will a new leader arise who will be harsher, or will they be more tolerant?

I clicked that I do not lean either way. The same God who allowed the current leadership in Iran to take hold in 1979 can either cause them to fall or to survive (some of the leadership has already passed away). The point is that God has a big plan that we are not always aware of and I am glad that it is him and not me who is in control of nations. For me this region of our globe is quite exciting because we already have a Biblical history of how leaders and nations have had control over that place in the past. I love how the current events allow us to talk about people like Cyrus, Darius, and Esther. It has been exciting for me to listen to non-Christian people from Iran even mentioning them over the past month.
