I was pleased to meet Hal one day when my boss at the Baptist counseling center invited me to a small church staff luncheon or some such. I think about 8-12 of us were there.

He was a lot more humble than I’d expected him to be.

He was Considerably more humble than a LOT of the REPLACEMENTARIANS et al I’ve run across.

He could share my fox-hole any day.

I wouldn’t want to have to trust a lot of REPLACEMENTARIANS to manage to make it in out of the rain.

Hal Lindsey, the consummate scammer within dispensaitonal circles
Hal Lindsey is currently married to his fourth wife, having divorced his previous three. On the back cover of the sixth printing of his 1974 book, There's a New World Coming, is a picture of Lindsey with his second wife, Jan. (Jan is the mother of Hal's three grown daughters.) He also dedicates the book to "my best pal, my wife Jan ..." However, "best pal" Jan is gone from the back cover of the book's 1984 "updated" edition, as is the dedication to her. A later Lindsey' book, Planet Earth--2000 A.D. (18 million in circulation as of 1/95), carries a picture of Hal and his third wife, Kim, who is approximately 25 years his junior. (Kim is the sister of author Johanna Michaelsen, and the sister-in-law of Tetelestai Center's Associate Pastor, Randy Michaelsen.) After dumping Kim, Hal is now married to wife #4, JoLyn, a member of Tetelestai and in a Bible class taught by Lindsey when she was evidently "discovered" by Hal.
