We (evangelicals) enjoy reading the books by Hal Lindsey and Tim LaFavre for their entertainment value but we really don't give much serious thought to what exactly is going to happen in what order at what time etc... It's not relevant to our living a Christian life.

Some of us even believe that we are not meant to understand or know the prophesies. We don't care about rebuilding the temple.

On the other hand. We believe every word in the Old Testament is true. We believe that the Jews are the chosen people of God and that God will bless nations that aid Israel. Christian children are raised on Old Testament stories. I didn't learn that I wasn't a Jew until I started to public school.

Jews have a legitimate reason to fear us evangelicals because we are commanded to take the teachings of Christ to all people, including Jews, but we could never even think of interfering in their religious practices or doing them any harm.
