'Jesus wins' in LaHaye's 'Left Behind' finale

NEW YORK — If Tim LaHaye had his way, the title of his newest book, the final installment in the hugely successful "Left Behind" series, would be "Jesus Wins." But he grudgingly settled on "Kingdom Come," amid strong urging from his publisher.

"They told me it would be a better title for the book and what it's about, but the message is still the same," said LaHaye, whose newest evangelical thriller, co-authored with Jerry B. Jenkins, will be hitting bookstores on April 3. More than 300,000 copies of the 16th and final hardcover title in their series based on the Book of Revelation will flood into bookstores and other retailers.
