Christian temperament theorists Tim LaHaye

Christian temperament theorists Tim LaHaye and Richard Arno (who I was introduced into temperament theory through) use biblical examples of the temperaments (neither types Jesus, however!)

LaHaye has his temperament blends, which he probably does not assign to any type. But if you take the "primary" temperament as Interaction Styles (I/E + S/N + T/F or J/P groups); and the "secondary temperament as the "Keirseyan" temperament (S+J/P; N+T/F), then we can derive type from it, and from our discussions here, it seems to be fairly accurate. Just in case, I can reverse primary and secondary as well, in lowercase.

LaHaye:
SanChlor: Peter (ENTP, estp)
SanMel: David (ESFJ, istp)
SanPhleg: Apollos (ENFP, isfp)
ChlorSan James (ESTP, entp)
ChlorMel: Paul (ESTJ, intj)
ChlorPhleg: Titus (ENFJ, intp)
MelSan: John the Baptist, Elijah, Jeremiah (ISTP, esfj)
MelChlor: Luke, Moses (INTJ, estj)
MelPhleg: John (INFJ, isfj)
PhlegSan: Timothy (ISFP, enfp)
PhlegChlor: Abraham (INTP, enfj)
PhlegMel: Barnabas (ISFJ, infj)

Arno does not give blends or even spacify the temperament area, except in one case, but rather gives the general temperament, which may this be the "pure" temperament:

Moses: Melancholy (ISTJ, or other IST/INJ, or ISJ)
Solomon: Melancholy (ISTJ, or other IST/INJ, or ISJ)
John: Melancholy (ISTJ, or other IST/INJ, or ISJ)
Paul: Choleric (ENTJ, or other ENJ or EST)
Peter: Sanguine (in Inclusion; i.e. "Get Things Going") ENP/ESF
Nehemiah: Phlegmatic (INFP, or other ISF or INF)
Martha: Supine (INFP, or other ISF or INF)
