Through studying the proselytizing methods of missionaries in Iran, we can find out many points about the principles of evangelistic methods in Iran. Christian history is intertwined with the history of Christian missionary activities and some historical evidence shows that some missionaries were pioneer in colonial movements before colonization. At the end of the first century AD Christianity spread in Iran. Missionaries came to Iran to evangelize individually or in groups. The first Protestant missionary in Iran was a man named Henry Martin. Other missionaries came to Iran in formal religious groups after him. Evangelistic activities in the Persian Satellite Channels and internet and even indoor Evangelistic activities were along the same path and aim at showing Islamic principles in the form of bad behavior and prejudice, inducing this content to the contacts and preaching Christianity and salvation in the name of Christianity.
