In its latest TW News and Prophecy, the Living Church of God has the following:

Biblical Key to U.S. Relationships

A recent Gallup poll revealed that “Nearly all Americans, a full 96 per cent, have a favourable view of Canada… That’s the loftiest ranking for any foreign country since Gallup began the poll two decades ago… But the survey suggests Canada better keep its eye on the Aussies–Australia is right behind us in second place at 93 per cent. Great Britain is in third at 90 per cent” (www.ca.news.yahoo.com, February 16, 2012). Historically, the U.S. has also had close ties with Israel.

The article cites reasons for the “love affair” between the U.S. and Canada, including strong diplomatic ties, a common border, long-lasting peace, Canada’s strong economy, and many joint ventures–including being comrades-in-arms in conflicts around the globe. But there are biblical reasons for these close relationships.

What few realize today is that the U.S., Canada, the U.K. and even Israel are literally “brothers” of common parents. The Bible reveals that the sons of Joseph, Ephraim and Manasseh, were to become a great nation and a company of nations–the U.S. and the British-descended people. Jews in Israel today are descended from the Israelite tribe of Judah–which makes these people also “brothers.” Thus, the modern relationships between these nations are not unique, nor are they new.

The biblical identities of these modern nations provide important insights into end-time Bible prophecies aimed at the “houses” of Israel and Judah. For more information on this fascinating subject, see our booklet The United States and Great Britain in Prophecy.

The Bible ties the Anglo-descended nation of the USA, Canada, Great Britain, Australia, and New Zealand together. With the exception of New Zealand, these nations tend to fight many of the same actual battles and work closely together militarily (New Zealand, though sometimes isolating itself from USA military conflicts, does work closely together with Australia).

These nations will all fall towards the beginning of the Great Tribulation.
