Eight volumes condensed in four supreme hardcover binding, lacking nothing upon aesthetics. Chafer is clearly orthodox and conservative concerning all of protestant doctrinal points, which positions, it is worth noting, are always sustained and supported by the Scriptures. He doesn't base his account on scholarship, which comes into play only sporadically and oftenly to serve as an example of some trend of thought.
Chafer employs Scripture's passages extensively, what makes the study rich and slow at the same time if one intends to check on every quote of the Bible. It is true that some of the passages evoked not always seems to corroborate to his point clearly, though always somewhat related to the issue, but that's the price one pays for fulfilling barely every page with intended Scripture's proof.
Conservative points of view are evident, as well as the criticism towards liberal theology, what grants that sometimes we have dogmatic assertions and scarce problematization on the question. Not always are we presented to the suposed "proofs" of the "enemy", only to their arguments, to which a steady refutation follows right away.
The volumes are definitely thorough, comprising every tradicional division of Systematic Theology and adding to it some new aspects the author finds proper to depict. Volume 8 is an index one, a tremendous aid for searching especific topics through the set. It should not surprise that there is an author index however lacking a systematized bibliography: that's due to the emphasis on biblical passages rather than scholarship authorities.
Curiously, it is a vast work though not properly deep. It brings lots of quotes from the Bible, but it is not the pourpose to discuss exegetically or hermeneutically some questions. To that, specific books are required, though a very good indication of the problem is offered in Chafer's presentation.
It is a recommended work, worthy of high complements and, naturally, some critics also.

Wesley W Whitehead
What an AWESOME set of volumes! I am currently reading through Vol 1 and I am blown away at the depth of thought that was put into this systematic theology. I have also referenced some topics of interest in the other volumes and they too have been equally impressive. If you want a true understanding of scriptural truths that haven't been corrupted by modern liberal apostate theologians belonging to the church of laodicea then this set of works is for you. Well worth the price!

I've only studied from Volume 4 for a class I've registered. The information is "reader friendly" for beginners.My concern is that I received a damaged book and was told by your company that a mailing label would be sent so that I may return the book. As of today, I have not received to mailing label. Please advise.

I got such a fantastic buy on this 4-volume set of Chafer's Systematic Theology (77% off regular price) that I considered buying a set for my pastor/teacher - but I found out that he has had a set of the single-volume units for over 20 years, and still uses them! This is a real bargain (I can't bring myself to say "steal")!

Dan Hummel
First I read his He That Is Spiritual, and then Satan, and I was hooked to Dr. Chafer's writing and his scholarship and his logical presentation of all these deep ideas. But his Systematic Theology is supreme of all his works. Solidly Bible-based, mostly reformed with some clarification and omission corrections from other Systematic Theologies, Dr. Chafer's Systematic Theology is life-changing. When I suggested to a couple of people at our church that we study this together, it grew from a couple to 16 and counting! I have made review guides and assignments to make the study easy and practical, but still totally relying on Dr. Chafer's work, which is totally reliant on the Bible, or on other great scholars of the Word whom Dr. Chafer cites and quotes. Get this set and answer every question you have about the Christian faith and know which questions can't be answered.

In my opinion, this set is one of the best theological works money can buy. These books should be required reading for every pastor and serious student of God's Word and they should find prominence and usefulness in every pastor's library. Dr. R.L.Luther

Persons who seriously study the Bible should read Chafer's Systematic Theology. He is premillennial and dispensational, similar to C. I. Scofield.

James Fire
From the very first time I opened this 4 Volume set of Systematic Theology, I knew I had purchased good, solid biblical provender!Chafer is thorough but not unnecessarily exhaustive. He provides a voice for the liberal opposition, but then offers his rebuttal, favoring a conservative, premillennial escatology that I find gratifying in a time where much of the church allegorizes to death the very Truth of God's most literal Word!Chafer is plain enough for the layman to glean rich, deep exposition, yet challenging enough for pastors and biblical scholars. I believe I have room to grow with these volumes in expanding my understanding of God's Holy Word, and heartily recommend this set to any one serious about their studies in scripture!

David Quatt
This a great-quality reprint of a classic. The theological writings of Chafer (along with others) offer good, sound teachings on Biblical truths and are needed in a time when people will not endure sound doctrine. Even if one's theological interpretation is covenantal, he will still profit from reading this systematic. The rhetoric is scholarly but not cryptic, and the text is easy to read. The reader will see that Chafer holds his own with Richard Watson, the Hodges, Dabney, Wesley, Warfield, and others. Buying this set with Christian Book Distributors is worth the purchase.

I find Chafer's Systematic Theology to be second to none. This will challenge any Minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to "dig in" and mine out the golden truths of the Word Of God!
