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.”
