- BIO:Louis Entzminger 1876-1958
-
- Sunday School administrator and Baptist
- preacher. Dr. Louis Entzminger began his service for the Lord with a
- great desire to work with the Sunday Schools of Baptist churches. He
- began to work on a system that would help to build and maintain such
- Sunday Schools. Dr. Entzminger was the originator of the six-point
- system that is so widely used today in most Baptist Sunday Schools, as
- well as many other denominations. He is also credited for his help in
- building the largest Sunday Schools in America, either directly or
- indirectly. He was instrumental in the founding of the Fundamen- tal
- Baptist Bible Institute, which later became and is now known as Bible
- Baptist Seminary in Arlington, Texas. After more than 80 years of life,
- the majority of them in full-time service for the Lord, Dr. Entzminger
- slipped quietly away to be with the Lord. His life could well be summed
- up in the words of another: "Life's race well run, life's work well
- done, life's crown well won...now comes rest."
