The
Cleansing of America published
in 1994, 20+ years ago!
W. Cleon Skousen
(1913-2006)—an ardent supporter of God, country, and the unlimited potential
for greatness in all people—passed away at his Salt Lake City home in 2006 just
eleven days shy of his ninety-third birthday.
His books on religion, such as The
First 2,000 Years, Prophecy and Modern Times, Isaiah Speaks to Modern Times,
Treasures from the Book of Mormon , and Days
of the Living Christ, reached millions of readers in the Christian, Jewish,
and Islamic communities.
Dr. Skousen served for sixteen
years in J. Edgar Hoover’s FBI as an agent, and later as the communications
director during the waning years of the gangster era and World War II. He was also the editor of the nation’s
leading police magazine, “Law and Order.”
Known for his untiring devotion to principle and integrity, he served as
Salt Lake City’s chief of police and created what Time Magazine called “a model
police force.” He and his wife Jewel are the parents of eight children, fifty
grandchildren, and one hundred-plus great-grandchildren.
The author writes, “This
book is a sequel to The Majesty of God’s
Law. [The rest of the story.] It
covers: The restoration of the
Constitution; The adoption of God’s
Law; The introduction of a Zion society
under the law of consecration with individual stewardships; The great last gathering of Israel; The coming of the ten tribes; and The building of the New Jerusalem.
Here are some areas covered:
“The Signs of the Times”; … “God’s Warning to the American Gentiles”; … “How
Will America Be Cleansed?” … “The Word of the Lord”; … “America Begins to
Attain Her Manifest Destiny”; … “Setting up the New Jerusalem”; … “Coming of
the Ten Tribes [from the North]”; … “Battle of Armageddon”; … “Warn and Seal Up
Every Nation”; … “Earth [moves] Back Towards Kolob”; … “The Second Coming”; … “[What’s Next?] Seven Steps in Setting Up God’s Law”; … “A
New Economic System Under God’s Law”; … “Developing the Blessings of a Zion
Society”; … “Looking Forward!”
Dr. W. Cleon Skousen spent the majority of his life researching
the gospel, the U.S. Constitution, the founding of America and writing numerous
books and articles on the topic, and he is one of the most well-known,
respected defenders of America and the gospel the world has ever known. At the
time of his passing in 2006, his work was not yet finished. His book The Cleansing of America, written in 1994
and given into the care and keeping of his sons, is now being brought forth for
the first time ever.
Included
in these pages are the events and stages the Lord has predicted, through his
servants, the winding-up scenes of this world. It helps the reader understand:
the nature of prophecy, the known chronology of prophetic events, and the
importance of staying close to the Lord and his prophets during the difficult
and challenging years prior to the Second Coming. We are fast approaching those
prophetic events. Some are upon us even now.
If we are prepared and obedient, we need not fear these events, but rather embrace them for the blessing
they portend.
The Cleansing of America is the culmination of several years of
research, writing, and speaking on the subject of prophecy and the latter days relative to the United
States. In 1994, he compiled his
research as a book that he published privately for his family. He told them he didn’t feel comfortable going
public with it until “the time was right.”
When his sons asked when that might be, he said, “You will know. It will be a dark time when the Constitution
is being abandoned, when economic turmoil boils on every level of society and
government. … You’ll know it when you
see it. That’s the time that this
book should be published.”
