Like some inane college cheer, preacher Bob Pearle explains that the first ‘t’ in ‘Baptist’ is for ‘tithing.’
B stands for: “Bible”
A stands for: “Autonomy of the local church”
P stands for: “priesthood of the believer”
Now, what about the letter “T”? It could stand for “theology”, or “testify”, or even “trespass the recalcitrant”. No, it stands for something much more important, something that is much more near and dear to the heart of so many baptist preachers like Bob Pearle.
Tithing.
Just so’s you know, this is from a recent chapel message at Southwestern Baptist seminary. Yes, this is the stuff of a preacher’s education.
‘E’ is for egregious, ‘D’ is for dunderheads …
