It is funny how the article claims the government is very hard on Christians, but when the Olympics mocked the last supper, the Iranian government was the first country brave enough to publicly denounce their mockery.
Also, apparently Iran put up signs saying 'Indeed, the Messiah, Jesus Christ, Son of Mary, is a messenger of God.', in solidarity with Christians after the Luciferian Olympic ceremony.
It might be fake news that their government is currently hard on Christians. Given their government's sympathy for Christians, I wouldn't be surprised if some of the government have become secret believers.
In contrast, I think they treated christians and jews not very well, when the mullahs first took over after the shah. afaik, they may not compatible with christianity ultimately, notice 'son of mary' not 'son of god' as that's blasphemy, I believe.
The son of Mary yes but also the Messiah?
they probably interpret the word messiah as 'prophet', 'son of god' is not so easy to give a new interpretation, my guess.
Yes, I assume they don't fully understand what the Messiah did. But nothing in their statement is wrong.
The believers Paul writes to in Romans also did not yet understand the doctrine of justification by faith alone and that Christ's righteousness is imputed onto everyone who believes in Him, but Paul already counts them as believes, because they believed in Jesus Christ even if they did not fully understand Him.
