"Harold Lindsell" was an evangelical Christian author and scholar. He is best known for his 1976 book The Battle for the Bible.

Lindsell was born in New York City, and obtained degrees at Wheaton College (Illinois)/Wheaton College, University of California, Berkeley and New York University. He taught at Columbia Bible College, Northern Baptist Theological Seminary and Fuller Theological Seminary, before becoming editor of Christianity Today. He served as President of the Evangelical Theological Society in 1971.

Lindsell is credited with boosting the efforts of conservatives to wrest the Southern Baptist Convention away from moderates over the issue of biblical inerrancy. Ruth Graham credited him with "being used by God to save her doubting faith" while she was a student at Wheaton.

Lindell was diagnosed with polyneuropathy in 1991, and died of flu complications in 1998.
