Refuses to Compromise to Stay on Air
January 1, 2006
Dear Paul and Jan,
Paul, Jr. relayed your message to me that you are both in agreement on the policy of nothing negative being said on TBN about Muslims. Hearing that you also warned John Haggee, Perry Stone, Jack VanImpe and others of this policy caused me to realize that your are not going to modify your position.
I love and respect you both and know your heart for evangelism of the Muslims. But I don't agree with your reasoning that warning about the dangers of "radical Islam" is a hindrance to the Gospel to all Muslims. The 'Radicals' are intimidating the moderate Muslims -- not to mention their terrible persecution of Arab and Palestinian Christians.
Jesus confronted false religion (which Islam is) by calling them "whitewashed tombstones", "Brood of vipers", and "sons of hell" in Matthew 23.
I am sure of my calling from the LORD. One important part of that calling is to sound a prophetic alarm to America and the world about the dangers of the false religion of Fundamental Islam. It is a "Watchman on the Wall" kind of calling.
In addition, the IIB is a news show from a Christian perspective. It is impossible to report the news without mentioning in a 'negative light' the radical Islamists who are wreaking murder and destruction on the Western world daily. It is truthfully reporting the most relevant news that made IIB one the most popular programs on TBN.
It is also absolutely unacceptable to me to require my script to be submitted for censorship each week and then to learn whether my program will be aired or not. I don't have much money and it costs me a lot out of pocket to produce each show. When it is rejected or pre-empted, it is a big loss for me.
So with regret and grief, I am not returning to TBN. I intend to pursue other avenues of ministry. I thank you for the years of association in the ministry. May God continue to bless you in your pursuit of evangelizing the world.
In Christ's grace,
Hal Lindsey
Wow!
I know they frequently have a "prophet" on Kim something or other who "forsaw" Bush getting shot or attacked during one of his presidential debates with Kerry. That's when I knew he was a fraud.
But they still have him on, which makes you wonder......
Yes, John Hagee can get going, but I really love him. I love it when he says "...and everything's gonna be alright...", with the Lord of course!
:o)
Hopefully David Jeremiah doesn't walk...but if the Crouch's and the other "God don't juan you to drive around in no Fohd...GOD juans you to drive arounn inna CAD'O LAK" crowd..are financially benefiting...perhaps it's time to say adios.
LOL!
Art Bell Evangelicals?
I point out that Hal mis-characterized the object of Jesus' statements - he was talking about 'hypocrites', not a 'false religion' - and I get this response?
What am I supposed to do with that?
Trinity Broadcast Network.
Who is she? She looks like the reincarnation of Tammy Faye Bakker!!!
Read later.

I've watched Paul Crouch a couple of times and couldn't believe that people actually took him and his wife seriously. He should have been a snake oil salesman.
And you take Hal Lindsay and VanImpe seriously?
limousine Christians.
Benny who?
Oh you mean Benihana - My favorite place to eat!
You're lying. Sometimes it's blue.
Whoa!
Television for fundamentalists.
