	dirnOnline: Lewis Sperry Chafer
		Lewis Sperry Chafer (187 1-1952) was a well-known American premilleniarian, dispensationalist, founder of Dallas Theological Seminary, writer, and conference speaker.
		Chafer was born in Rock Creek, Ohio, the second of three children born to a graduate of Auburn Theological Seminary, a Presbyterian/Congregational institution in New York.
		Chafer's third major legacy, and arguably the primary one, was his emphasis on the centrality of Christ and the grace of God; the preeminence of Christ and Calvary was the very heart of Chafer's religious passion.

	A Review of Lewis Sperry Chafer's Higher Life Theology, by B. B. Warfield
		Chafer remembers that according to the Confession of Faith to which, as a Presbyterian minister, he gives his adhesion, it is in the strictest sense of the term not necessary for anybody to sin, even for the "natural man" (ix, I).
		Chafer is quite wrong when he says: "Salvation is not a so-called 'change of heart.' It is not a transformation of the old; it is a regeneration, or creation, of something wholly new, which is possessed in conjunction with the old so long as we are in the body" (p.
		Chafer loyally teaches, the flesh continues in the regenerate man and strives against the Spirit he is to be commended for preserving even to the Seventh Chapter of Romans its true reference but the remainders of the flesh in the Christian do not constitute his characteristic.

	Dispensationalism: Old Testament Salvation by Grover Gunn
		Chafer regarded the Mosaic covenant as a meritorious covenant of works in which divine blessing was conditioned strictly upon human faithfulness.
		Chafer contrasted this with the situation of the universal church in which both the corporate body and all the individuals in the corporate body are secure.
		And third, Dr. Chafer's teaching that the resurrected Old Testament saints would be on earth during the millennium and that resurrected church saints would not be on the new earth during eternity contradicts the New Testament teachings on the New Jerusalem.

		Prior to the return of Christ, the two religions are separate dispensationally, which meant both that they were distinguished historically, as different religions pertaining to different historical periods, and distinguished intrinsically, essentially as earthly versus heavenly, law versus grace.
		McClain rejected Scofield's and Chafer's lexical distinction between the kingdom of heaven and kingdom of God, not to mention the use of that distinction to organize the New Testament teaching on the eschatological kingdom.
		Chafer claimed that the new covenant mentioned in 2 Corinthians and in Hebrews is an entirely different covenant than that predicted by Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel.

	Presbyterianism and Dispensationalism
		Lewis Sperry Chafer (1871-1952), a presbyterian, was founder of Dallas Theological Seminary, and served as its president and professor of systematic theology.
		As Dr. Chafer clearly recognizes, there are two schools of interpretation here which he rightly designates as “Covenantism” as over against “Dispensationalism.”
		That is, the “covenantism” of the Westminster Standards is diametrically opposed to “dispensationalism.” This judgment is accurate, if what we mean by “dispensationalism” includes the suggestion of different ways of salvation or a pronounced antinomianism that dispenses with any requirement of obedience for New Testament Christians.

	Blue Letter Bible - Study Tools
		by Lewis Sperry Chafer D.D., Litt.D., Th.D. IN CONSIDERING the Bible doctrine of salvation it is important to distinguish between those things which have already been done for all, and those things which are done for the individual at the instant he believes.
		The sum total of that which has been done for both classes constitutes "the riches of grace in Christ Jesus." But the things divinely accomplished at the instant of believing alone form that aspect of salvation which is already accomplished in and for the one who believes.
		Dr. Chafer's treatise entitled Systematic Theology, published by Vail-Ballow Press, Inc. in 1948, expands significantly on each of the points delineated in this article.
