BibleNewsProphecy: Prophecy: UK’s Loss of Chagos Islands; The Economist: Britain should not hand the Chagos Islands to Mauritius

Chagos Islands (Wikipedia)

Earlier this month, the UK announced it would give the sovereignty of the Chagos Islands to Mauritius. And while that was not a “sea gate” that the old Worldwide Church of God seemed to warn would be lost, it is one that I predicted would be lost back in 2019 (see UK to give up Chagos islands, including Diego Garcia, confirming prediction from COGwriter).

The Economist has protested the decision:

Britain should not hand the Chagos Islands to Mauritius

Once again, the Chagossians have been denied a say

The Chagos Islands are the site of one of the shabbier episodes from the period when Britain gave up its empire. Their 1,500 or so inhabitants, the Chagossians, were forcibly expelled in the 1960s and 1970s to make way for an American military base on the atoll of Diego Garcia. British authorities blocked families returning from trips, cut off the supply of teachers and doctors, gassed the islanders’ dogs and eventually deported anyone still left. https://www.economist.com/leaders/2024/10/09/britain-should-not-hand-the-chagos-islands-to-mauritius

It was also reported here that the Chagossians had no say in this (see UK to give up Chagos islands, including Diego Garcia, confirming prediction from COGwriter).

Forbes warned:

The U.K. Turning Over The Chagos Islands To Mauritius Empowers China

We live in a world getting ever more dangerous. The inability and unwillingness of the U.S. and the rest of the Free World to adjust to new, ominous realities was on pathetic display a few days ago when Britain announced that it was turning over the Chagos Islands, where we have a crucial military base, to Mauritius, which is off the southeastern coast of Africa.

Mauritius is an ally of China, and Beijing is licking its chops at the prospect of conducting electronic snooping of the base and other nefarious activities.

Amazingly the Biden-Harris Administration encouraged London to go for such an agreement under the illusion that this would preserve the base. https://www.forbes.com/sites/steveforbes/2024/10/10/the-uk-turning-over-the-chagos-islands-to-mauritius-empowers-china/

Notice the following promise to the descendants of Abraham:

16 “By Myself I have sworn, says the Lord, because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son — 17 blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your descendants as the stars of the heaven and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your descendants shall possess the gate of their enemies. 18 In your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.” (Genesis 22:16-18)

Enemy gates were promised to Abraham’s descendants. Now, the UK is giving Chagos up to Mauritius, who supports a nation that the UK and USA consider a type of enemy.

Allow me to add that since the UK announcement to turn sovereignty to Mauritius, Argentina has since asked for the Falkland Islands again, and the UK last Monday said no (see After Chagos announcement, Argentina pushes for Falkland, UK says no, but …). However, things will not go as the UK hopes.

Prophecy: UK’s Loss of Chagos Islands

On May 28, 2019, Dr. Bob Thiel posted and predicted that the United Kingdom would lose the Chagos Islands, including Diego Garcia. He repeated that prediction on October 1, 2024. On October 3, 2024, the BBC reported that the United Kingdom was going to lose the Chagos Islands and give its sovereignty to the nation of Mauritius, thus confirming his predictions. US President Joe Biden praised the UK decision. Why did Dr. Thiel make that prediction? Was it based on several biblical prophecies? Have other predictions related to loss of ‘sea gates’ possessed by the UK and United State of America come to pass? Will the UK one day lose the Falkland Islands, Gibraltar, and even Northern Ireland for their disobedience? What are some of the Bible prophecies that pointed to the attaining of sea gates and losses of territories to the end time descendants of Joseph, Ephraim (the company of nations, once the British Commonwealth) and Manasseh (a once great nation, the US). Does the Bible have the “more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts” (2 Peter 1:19, KJV)? Were prophets and prophecies expected in the ‘last days’ according to Acts 2:17-18? Steve Dupuie and Dr. Thiel discuss these matters. They also referred listeners to a free online book which helps identify various peoples that the Bible prophecies about titled ‘Lost Tribes and Prophecies: What will happen to Australia, the British Isles, Canada, Europe, New Zealand and the United States of America?’ URL: https://www.cogwriter.com/LostTribes.pdf

Will the UK Lose Gibraltar and the Falkland Islands? For many years, the major sea gates of the world were possessed/controlled by the United States (Panama Canal and certain locations in the Pacific ocean) and the British Empire (Straits of Malacca, Singapore, Suez Canal, Bab el Mandeb, Strait of Hormuz, Simon’s Town/Cape of Good Hope, Malta, etc.), and many are no longer under their control. Spain wants Gibraltar and Argentina wants the Falklands (also known as the Malvinas). UK Prime Minister David Cameron says the UK will defend the Falklands Gibraltar. Does the Bible give clues as to what will happen with those ‘sea gates’? Do promises made the Jacob’s mother Rebekah play a role? What about Deuteronomy 28? This is a video.
