Maryam Rajavi<\/a>: Christ is the ultimate message of the victory of rebelling against tyranny and injustice<\/h2>\n

\nGreetings to Jesus Christ, the \u201cSun of Justice\u201d for the deprived and oppressed and the guiding star encouraging them to rise and revolt for freedom.
\nGreetings to the Virgin Mary, who dedicated herself to the salvation of humanity. The Holy Quran describes her as one of the greatest missionaries of unity and trailblazers of human liberty.<\/p>\n

Dear compatriots,<\/p>\n

\nHonorable Christians in Iran<\/a> and around the world, supporters of the Iranian people\u2019s Resistance,<\/p>\n

\nMerry Christmas to all of you, the followers of deliverance, peace, and justice.
\nOn this blessed night, followed by the \u201cbrightest days\u201d with the birth of Christ, I pray for my people and homeland to triumph over the criminal sinister mullahs\u2019 regime and achieve freedom and happiness.<\/p>\n

\nWe honor the name of Christ, which in the words of the Bible is \u201cthe light of the world.\u201d He is the inspiration to everyone who seeks to bring down the oppressors, hypocritical Pharisees, and the demagogue mullahs.<\/p>\n

\nOn this night, let us remember the mothers of the martyrs of the 1988 massacre<\/a>, the mothers of the martyrs of the uprising, especially of the November 2019 uprising<\/a>, whose courage and sacrifice matches the Virgin Mary\u2019s.<\/p>\n

\nChrist (PBUH) is the prophet of those who lay down their lives for freedom and stand up for justice. He belongs to all the people of the world. He is the prophet of \u201cthose who mourn,\u201d the prophet of \u201cthe meek,\u201d the prophet of \u201cthose who hunger and thirst for righteousness,\u201d and the prophet of \u201cthose who are persecuted for righteousness\u2019 sake\u201d or falsely reviled. (1)<\/p>\n

\nToday, he is among the protesters in Iran<\/a>, with the deprived farmers of Isfahan, Shahrekord, and Khuzestan. He is with those who thirst for water and freedom throughout Iran. As he said, \u201cFor where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.\u201d (2)<\/p>\n

\nHe is with the Baluch fuel carriers and martyrs. He is with the frustrated teachers who want the children of Iran<\/a> to gain knowledge while enjoying freedom and equality.<\/p>\n

\nChrist is the ultimate message of the victory of rebelling against tyranny and injustice because \u201cthe light shines in darkness; and the darkness has not overcome it.\u201d (3)<\/p>\n

We also pray for healing and recovery of all the sick on this splendid night. We pray for those deprived of medical facilities and care under the mullahs\u2019 rule\u2014those oppressed and plundered by this oppressive regime.<\/p>\n

\nTherefore, in my prayers I repeat the words of Jesus Christ, who said, \u201cLove each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one\u2019s life for one\u2019s friends.\u201d (4)<\/p>\n

\nGreetings to Jesus Christ, the messenger of freedom and justice, and greetings to the Virgin Mary, whose legacy we follow and adhere to.<\/p>\n
