Will the Millennium be a period of soul-saving revival?

There seems to be reason to suppose that in connection with the return of our Lord the events that accompany it will result in bringing many persons to their senses and to an acceptance of Jesus Christ. Certainly this is true of Israel. There is to be a national repentance, a national turning to Christ. Jesus, coming as a deliverer, shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob (Romans 11:26). God will pour out upon them the Spirit of grace and of supplications. They shall look upon the One whom they have pierced, and shall mourn over their sin, and a fountain shall be opened to them for sin and for uncleanness, and there shall be a national turning to Jesus Christ (Zechariah 12:10 to Zechariah 13:1). In connection with the conversion of Israel there will also be a great turning of the Gentile to Christ (Romans 11:12).
