USA, UK, New Zealand, and Australia trade deals
US President Donald Trump expects a major post-Brexit trade deal with the United Kingdom:
25 July 2017
Donald Trump has said he is working on a “major trade deal” with the UK.
The US President tweeted that a bilateral trade agreement with the UK after it leaves the EU in 2019 could be “very big and exciting” for jobs.
Mr Trump, who backed Brexit, also took a swipe at the EU accusing it of a “very protectionist” stance to the US.
The US President, whose officials are meeting British counterparts this week, has been accused of protectionist rhetoric by his political opponents.
Working on major Trade Deal with the United Kingdom. Could be very big & exciting. JOBS! The E.U. is very protectionist with the U.S. STOP!
Our special relationship w/ UK is going to be even better. @USTradeRep & UK’s @LiamFox
met today to begin new chapter for stronger trade!
The UK’s International Trade Secretary Liam Fox is currently in Washington discussing the potential for a UK-US trade deal after the UK’s withdrawal from the EU in March 2019. No deal can be signed until after then. http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-40716317
Donald Trump was one of few international leaders that backed the pro-Brexit vote.
The UK is not only interested in trade deals with the USA, but also New Zealand and Australia:
25 July 2017
New Zealand will be “at or near the front of the queue” for a free trade deal with the UK after it leaves the European Union, Boris Johnson has said.
During a visit to the country he also said Brexit was not about Britain becoming more isolationist.
Instead it would give the UK an opportunity to “engage with the world again in a way that we haven’t been able to do for 43 years”, he said. …
Gerry Brownlee, New Zealand’s foreign minister, said there was a “strong interest” in swiftly concluding a free trade agreement with the UK after Brexit, adding it will “bring our two countries close together”. …
Mr Johnson has now arrived in Australia on the latest leg of his nine-day international tour.
The foreign secretary said post-Brexit trade would be “top of the agenda” for his visit.
“The bonds of kinship between Britain and Australia are deep and enduring,” he added. http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-40715005
Boris Johnson’s comments about New Zealand being “at or near the front of the queue” reminded me of something that then President Barack Obama stated in April 2016, prior to the Brexit vote. Here is some of what I reported about that back then:
Now, US President Obama made a statement to the UK that if it pulls out of Europe, the USA will not immediately negotiate trade deals with it, but put it in the back of the line:
April 22, 2016
President Barack Obama said Britain would be at “the back of the queue” to negotiate a trade agreement with the U.S. if it votes to leave the European Union, in a direct assault on the arguments of those who say the U.K. could win better deals outside the bloc.
“Some of the folks on the other side have been ascribing to the United States certain actions we will take if the U.K. does leave the EU,” Obama said at a joint press conference in London Friday with Prime Minister David Cameron. “For example, that, well, we’ll just cut our own trade deals” with the U.S. “Maybe at some point down the line there might be a U.K.-US trade agreement, but it’s not going to happen anytime soon.”
The intervention is a boost to Cameron as he fights to keep Britain inside the 28-nation EU, with the use of the British word “queue” rather than the more American “line” suggesting the White House may have coordinated on the language. http://www.bloomberg.com/politics/articles/2016-04-22/obama-says-u-k-would-be-back-of-line-for-trade-deal-post-brexit
The above could be perceived in the UK, by pro AND anti-Brexit forces as an insult. In my view, what Barack Obama said will galvanize the anti-EU Brexit forces and could help them win. As I posted yesterday:
Despite what Barack Obama is urging, if the UK does vote to leave it will likely draw the UK closer to, and not farther from, its ‘blood brother,’ the USA.
Should Britain vote to exit (Brexit) the EU on June 23, 2016, it is not likely that the major US presidential candidates will publicly state that the UK will be in the back of the line for trade talks. It is more likely that they will want to make a deal with the UK as that would likely be a lot easier than making one with the entire EU. (Thiel B. Germans again protest TTIP; Might Obama’s successor negotiate post-Brexit trade with the UK? COGwriter, April 23, 2016)
The day after the Brexit vote on June 23, 2016, I posted the following:
Actually, back in the early 1990s, when I was vice president of an irrigation equipment manufacturer, I told our British sales representative, who was visiting the factory in California, that one day the UK would separate from Europe. He flat out told me that would not possibly happen. And he gave reasons, but they were not biblical ones–I told him he was in error. The Brexit vote shows that he, who was not part of the Church of God, was in error.
Notice that on June 26, 2007, (see Tony Blair a Catholic EU Leader?), I posted the following:
We in the COGs tend to believe that the final beast power will be nominally Catholic (see Europa and the Beast of Revelation)…we in the COGs do believe that Britain will pull out of the EU…
So what is next?
Well, on April 22, 2016, US President Barack Obama threatened to put the UK at the “back of the queue” for trade negotiations if it voted to leave the EU (see Germans again protest TTIP; Might Obama’s successor negotiate post-Brexit trade with the UK?). Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton have taken a different view. Expect trade and other deals between the USA and UK. (Thiel B. UK votes YES to leave the European Union–What is now prophesied to happen? COGwriter, June 24, 2016)
Donald Trump’s ‘tweets’ today have confirmed that. The USA wants to make a major trade deal with the post-Brexit UK.
Years ago, I also wrote that the Brits would likely decide that they are more supportive of the Americans and Canadians than the continental Europeans. I also wrote that they would be so much more supportive that they would end up in a trading agreement with them and with the Australians and New Zealanders.
We are seeing these events beginning to take place.
This does not mean that the end is yet. Essentially they show that world events are aligning with the prophetic understandings that we in the Continuing Church of God have (cf. 2 Peter 1:19).
Expect more trade talks and deals between the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom.
But this will not save them.
The Bible clearly shows that Europe will rise up to be a great military and economic power (Revelation 13, 17, & 18). The Bible further shows that Europe will have a “great army” (Daniel 11:25), will persecute God’s people (Daniel 7:25; 11:29-35; Revelation 13:7), takeover many countries (Daniel 8:24-25, 11:39-43–this includes the USA and its Anglo-Saxon descended allies), lead the world to the brink of destruction (cf. Matthew 24:21-22), and ultimately be destroyed as well (Daniel 11:44-45; Revelation 19).
The time of Jacob’s trouble (Jeremiah 30:7), also known as the Great Tribulation, is coming. The UK, USA, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand will be conquered during it.
The Europeans will one day severely punish the UK for its Brexit (see also Post Brexit Prophecy) and conquer the USA (cf. Daniel 11:39; see also USA in Prophecy: The Strongest Fortresses).
Trade deals will not stop this from happening.

Brexit and the fate of Northern Ireland, Gibraltar, the UK, and the USA On April 29, 2017, 27 of the nations of the European Union agreed to certain guidelines for the negotiations with the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland which gave its notice to leave on March 29, 2017. These guidelines are contrary to what the UK wants. Does the EU intend the UK to pay a price for leaving the EU? What does Spain want? What does the Republic of Ireland want? Will Northern Ireland and Gibraltar eventually fall under European control? Will the UK and USA be conquered? What does the Bible teach? Dr. Thiel answer these questions and more in this video.
Trade Wars: Are COG warnings coming to pass? Trade issues, tariffs, and talk of trade wars are in the news. Can trade wars lead to World War III like they did to World War II? Are the events going on with the USA, UK, Asia, and Europe consistent with warnings published by the true Church of God (COG) over the past several years and decades? Do Germany and China hope to take advantage of trade frictions involving the Trump Administration and the Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement? What about Mexico and South America? Does the Bible teach that Europe will become a major trading power? Will the final European Babylonian trading power be destroyed? In this video, Dr. Thiel addresses these issues and more.
Forbes’ Brexit Monster is the Beast of Revelation Various ones have been properly convinced that there is a plan for a European superstate. Forbes’ writer Tom Worstall wrote that the Brexit vote was about the United Kingdom “not joining the monster of the European Union to come.” The Bible tells of a Beast monster that will arise in the end times in Europe. Dr. Thiel cites news reports, as well as the Old and New Testaments, to show that the monster many fear will arise in Europe, despite the vote by the British to exit the European Union. This is a video.

Must the Ten Kings of Revelation 17:12 Rule over Ten Currently Existing Nations? Some claim that these passages refer to a gathering of 10 currently existing nations together, while one group teaches that this is referring to 11 nations getting together.
