The great Prince of Preachers, Charles Spurgeon knew that the day would come when the Jewish people would be restored to their ancestral homeland.
"We shall at once profess our attachment to the premillennial school of interpretation, and the literal reading of those scriptures that predict the return of the Jews to their own Land." – Charles Spurgeon
“You cannot read the Bible without seeing clearly that there is to be an actual restoration of the children of Israel. If there is anything promised in the Bible it is this.” – Charles Spurgeon
“It is also certain that the Jews, as a people, will yet own Jesus of Nazareth, the Son of David, as their King, and that they will return to their own land, "and they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the old cities, the desolations of many generations.” – Charles Spurgeon
“There will be a native government again; there will again be the form of a body politic; a state shall be incorporated, and a king shall reign. . . If there be anything clear and plain, the literal sense and meaning of this passage [Ezekiel 37:1-10] —a meaning not to be spirited or spiritualized away— must be evident that both the two and the ten tribes of Israel are to be restored to their own land, and that a king is to rule over them.” – Charles Spurgeon
“If we read the Scripture's aright the Jews have a great deal to do with this world's history. They shall be gathered in; Messiah shall come, the Messiah they are looking for — the same Messiah who came once shall come again — shall come as they expected Him to come the first time. They then thought He would come a prince to reign over them, and so He will when He comes again.
He will come to be king of the Jews, and to reign over His people most gloriously; for when He comes Jew and Gentile shall have equal privileges, though there shall yet be some distinction afforded to that royal family from whose loins Jesus came; for He shall sit upon the throne of His father David, and unto Him shall be gathered all nations.” – Charles Spurgeon
