Chafer was a theologian who co-founded Dallas Theological
Seminary

1940), served as its first president, and was an influential
proponent of
Christian Dispensationalism in the early 20th
century.

John Hannah described Chafer as a visionary Bible teacher,
a minister of the gospel, a man of prayer with strong piety.

One of his students, Charles Caldwell Ryrie, who went on to
become a theologian and scholar, stated that Chafer was an
evangelist who was also "an eminent theologian."
