The Cyrus Call
The Balfour Declaration of 1917 and the beginning of British rule over the historic Land of Israel was the culmination of a vision which had developed in the Church in Great Britain over the previous three hundred years. This vision, supported by the great Christian Revivalists and Bible Teachers such as the Wesley brothers, Charles Simeon, Robert Murray McCheyne, C.H. Spurgeon and Bishop J.C. Ryle, was based on the Covenants of Promise as well as other prophetic Scriptures found in the Bible.
Many Christians were inspired to pray for the fulfillment of this vision and prominent leaders in England and Scotland, including William Wilberforce, Lord Palmerston and Lord Shaftesbury encouraged the British government to actively support this vision.
In The Cyrus Call, Australian author Kelvin Crombie presents the story of how this outworking of Britain’s Christian heritage was intertwined with her geo-political objective in the Middle East.
