About the Book: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 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 scenses 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. Some Book Reviews:Sherilee rated it and really liked it!This book was fascinating, although I believe many parts are just conjecture. The cleansing of America section in the beginning is frightening and abrupt without much of a preface. The rest talks about the events leading up to and during the millennium. Skousen takes a very literal spin on the scriptures accounting the last days, which is interesting to consider. I liked his exploraiont of ideas on how Zion, the society will be formed, and how the government should be run, along with how the law of consecration will be formed. I liked the historical aspects he brought in from our founding fathers when forming the constitution and how they were inspired. But this book has its issues. The beginning is abrupt. It throws you right into the cleansing of America without much preface. I was incredulous the first couple read-throughs. I thought, where is he getting this from? Then I read the full account of Charles D. Evan's dream of this cleansing in the Appendix. It actually prefaces this scourge, what's happening in society, and the series of events leading up to the desolating scourge. It is very frightening, if you believe it. Even for a Latter-day Saint, as I am, this book is frightening. Yes, he focuses mostly on millennium stuff, but we are not living in the millennium yet, and in order to get there, all the nasty stuff has to happen first. Personally, I enjoy the peace I have in my personal and community life. It is sad to know it's only going to get worse. I wished that Skousen would have added more about the growth of the gospel before his so-called cleansing of America. It appears to me, nearly everyone is wiped out in this scourge including members of the LDS church. We will not necessarily be inoculated against it (IF it happens). We are still in the world. Think about the economic crash; nearly everyone I've talked to has suffered because of it whether they were doing everything right or not. So it is not comforting to me to know about all the famines, wars, scourges, etc. We live on this earth like everyone else and will suffer to at least some extent because we are inhabitants on this earth, and the only thing that might set us apart from others is that we'll be prepared. I think human's natural inclination is to panic. This is one of those books that can feed the panic if you take it all seriously. Now if you take it with a grain of salt and truly believe in the goodness of people, maybe it won't all be that bad as he says. So after reading this book, I just have to say, that was informative, but we'll have to wait and see. Heed the prophet's counsel and he won't lead you astray. And right now he isn't telling us to panic. But he's not telling us to sit back and enjoy the ride either. Ger rated it and really liked it!Cleon Skousen both scared the snot out of me and gave me hope. I have been very concerned with the direction of the United States for some time as our culture has degenerated and our leaders (in many walks of life) have become increasingly corrupt. I suspected that it would not end well. Mr. Skousen makes the case that it will get very ugly for the wicked but then there will be a purge--a cleansing beginning with members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints who have not kept their covenants. This purge will spread throughout the nation. Just as in the days of the flood, Sodom and Gomorrah, the ancient Nephi civilization and others, there is a limit to what God will tolerate and then He will take dramatic and decisive action. God will not be mocked. In the end, the good guys win and they will have a society that is most desirable. Cleon Skousen has been called a right wing nut job and other things that are less than flattering. Just pull him up on Wikipedia. But has his "paranoia" about communism really been misplaced? I don't think so. Has his call for a return to the constitution been inappropriate? Hardly. How much better off would our nation be if we had followed his counsel instead of the politicians who have lied to us, taken our freedom and placed us in bondage? The answer should be obvious. I'd recommend this book. The reading is easy. The message is dead serious. Just what we need now, more than ever. Teri rated it and it was amazing!Wow - you better not read this if you are the type that cannot handle the bad and the ugly of what's going to very likely happen just prior to the Second Coming of our Savior. However, I love to read stuff like this. This book tells us about America's destiny as we approach "the end of the world", all based and quoted from the Holy Scriptures and quotes from prophets. It shows the almost-demise of the U.S. and yet the glory that will enfold it once the Millennium is here and Christ reigns upon the earth once more. It also does a pretty good job of showing the reader what one must become if one wishes to endure and overcome the terrible things that will be happening just prior to Christ's Second Return. It really gave me pause to ponder whether or not I'm as prepared as I could be for the "great and terrible day". For me, it was inspiring, making me want to become better - serve others more, be more Christlike, have more faith, be less worldly, etc. But like I said I know some people would NOT like to know what's up ahead. They rather just be surprised and have to deal with it "as it comes". To each their own. I found this book fascinating and full of facts. And at the end the author shares a couple of visions that Church Patriarch Evans had, too, and those were enlightening as to what will be taking place upon earth in the not-so-distant future, as well as what will happen after all the 'bad' happens, and the glory that will be upon those who endured through it all. I think the bottom line is, that is just made me appreciate all over again the majesty of God and His ways, and it reinforced the idea that so long as we are on the Lord's side, then things will be ok with us in the long run.
