Lewis Sperry Chafer was a Presbyterian dispensationalist who founded Dallas Theological Seminary.
He was a prominent teacher in the dispensational stream.
See Northwye's background on it. He concocted D'ism to 'solve' the 'set of conflicting messages in the Bible.'
He did not invent RT but obviously, it helps bolster support for the weak-minded who subscribe to D'ism. They feel persecuted and enjoy feeling victorious by having an 'enemy' to target.
