End of the Spear, the movie about the martyrdom of five American missionaries in the Ecuadorian jungle, and their murders' aftermath, is now showing. View the trailer here. Read more about the story in two inspiring books from Tyndale, publishers of the Left Behind series:
End of the Spear
Steve Saint was five years old when his father, missionary pilot Nate Saint, was speared to death by a primitive Ecuadorian tribe. In adulthood, Steve, having left Ecuador for a successful business career in the United States, never imagined making the jungle his home again. But when that same tribe asks him to help them, Steve, his wife, and their teenage children move back to the jungle. There, Steve learns long-buried secrets about his father's murder, confronts difficult choices, and finds himself caught between two worlds. End of the Spear brilliantly chronicles the continuing story that first captured the world's attention in the bestselling book, Through Gates of Splendor.
Through Gates of Splendor
In 1956, five young men traveled deep into the jungles of Ecuador to establish communication with the fierce and isolated Waorani tribe. In a nearby village, their wives huddled around a radio receiver, eagerly awaiting news of the historic encounter. The news they received sent shock waves around the world and changed their lives forever.

by Dr. Stu Johnson
This time of year, as we once again make our New Year's resolutions, I can't help but laugh at the seeming futility of most of them. A cartoon from the Christian Science Monitor put it well. It shows a man writing his list, composed of only three resolutions. More …

With Saddam Hussein and Yasser Arafat out of the way, a dazzling era of security and prosperity seems to have come to the Middle East. With the help of an American president trying to spread freedom and democracy, Israel and the Palestinians have signed a historic peace agreement. Violence is down. Their economies are booming. But a new evil looms on the horizon.

 Who Is the Antichrist?
The Antichrist is the person who is the diametric opposite of Jesus Christ. Instead of serving others, this man demands the service of others. Instead of reconciling the world to God, the Antichrist seeks to turn the world against God. That sounds a lot like the Devil. But it is worse. If the Devil appeared with no disguise, everyone would be frightened and repelled. But if a mortal man like everyone else was groomed by the Devil to do his bidding, a man like that could fool many people. According to the book of Revelation, the Antichrist will be an evil impostor, an international leader claiming to be dedicated to world peace and prosperity.
Symbolically represented by the number 666, this brutal man, who
is referred to in the Bible as the Beast, will personify and
spread evil throughout the world, ultimately opposing Jesus
Christ, glorifying himself, and deceiving many into actually
worshiping him instead of God.
This man will rule the earth for seven years and will turn out to
be a cruel despot. Jesus Christ will return in great glory to
depose him, but it will be too late for those who have foolishly
worshiped and followed the Antichrist. Eventually indwelt by
Satan himself, the Antichrist will command the world's armies in
a final battle called Armageddon against the Lord and his
heavenly armies of mighty angels. In the end the Antichrist will
be destroyed forever by Christ at the time of the Second Coming
and Judgment. (See 1 John 2:18-22; 4:3; 2 John 7; Revelation
1:3.)
