This is exactly what Herbert W. Armstrong predicted. He described in The United States and Britain in Prophecy how God prophesied of the phenomenal rise to power of both Britain and the United States. God also prophesied of our simultaneous decline. Coinciding with this precipitous decline in world power and influence is the unraveling of the relationship that once bound these two brothers so tightly together.
The Prophet Isaiah described this dramatic unraveling, which occurs just before the latter-day appearance of the prophesied Messiah: “Manasseh shall devour Ephraim, and Ephraim Manasseh; Together they shall be against Judah” (Isaiah 9:21; New King James Version).
What a perfect description of the present-day relations between America and Britain—and Israel. These nations are FAMILY. Historically, they have been the strongest ofALLIES—each a critical partner to the others. But today, America and Britain are turning against each other, and together, they are turning against the Jewish state.
These three Israelite nations—which have maintained such strong and durable alliances through generations—were PROPHESIED to forsake their special alliance and to engage in furious strife and contention with one another. This is now happening before our eyes.
Because of the breakdown in this historical alliance, God says that Britain and Judah, the little nation called Israel, will turn to Germany for help in time of need, rather than the United States.
This brotherly division and these shifting world alliances are not strengthening the United States, Britain and Israel. This division comes as the world is in more turmoil than any time since the end of the Cold War—and when dangerous new powers are rising. This prophesied division is making our peoples more vulnerable to these ascending world powers! For much more on this subject, be sure to study Herbert W. Armstrong’s book The United States and Britain in Prophecy.
