Tim Lahaye and Jerry Jenkins

Benjamin Netanyahu, the man who has been a pathological liar with respect to Irans nuclear program, was telling the truth here.

By the middle of the 19th century, the birth of Dispensational Premillennialism made Zionism ideologically possible and acceptable among mainline Protestants.

Tim LaHaye, Jerry Jenkins and Hal Lindsey did not invent that system. As we shall see in the series, it has been around for at least one hundred years,[2] and date-setters with their failed predictions have always found fresh audiences to propagate the system as well.

There is also a lot of money to be made. Historian Paul Boyer has noted that by 1979, apocalyptic books had become a lucrative industry.[3]

Tim LaHaye has been known to trade his Christian value for the almighty dollar. He sued a Canadian Christian film company, but the federal judge threw the case out of court.

LaHaye also hired people like Michael Ovitz, who worked for celebrities like Michael Douglas, Tom Cruise, Kevin Cosner, Madonna, Barbra Streisand, Sylvester Stallone, and Steven Seagal, in order to get a forty-five million dollar deal with one of New Yorks major publishing houses, Bantam Books.[4] Born into a Jewish family, Ovitz was former president of Walt Disney from 1995 until 1997.[5]

LaHaye got into trouble in the 1980s because it was reported that he received $10,000 from Bo Hi Pak, a sort of protg of the late Korean-born religious leader Sun Myung Moon.[6] Moon was widely known in the Protestant evangelical world to be a cult leader.[7]
