I do not know, or concur to everything he might have to say, but on this occasion, Retired Sherriff Schwiesow has painted a very accurate picture of our nation, and is certainly a sign of. . . . . .
We are in a serious day folks, and I am not sure just how many realize how serious. If we are not in the “Beginning of Sorrows” of which our King spoke, then I would hate to see what they will be like when those days do get here.
The following contains some excerpts from a writing by Jim R. Schwiesow (a retired sheriff with 46 years of law enforcement service), who has painted a very accurate picture of our nation. I personally do not know this man, or have knowledge of what else he might have written. I just thought this particular writing was excellent, and so have published it here.
SCARLET IS OUR COLOR
By Jim R. Schwiesow

Time is fleeting and every second, minute, hour
and day hurtles this nation closer to a time of retribution, a time so horrific
that the mind cannot comprehend the magnitude of the fiery fury that will
descend upon this nation and the people in it. The Eternal is moving against
this country with purpose and terrible resolve, like small fingers of flame the
preliminary pestilences signal a rapidly advancing holocaust.
The worst of heathen have come to possess the
offices of our government, the halls of our institutions and the minds of our
people. The land is in the terminal stages of a great spiritual disease. We are
an adulterous people and a scarlet A has been emblazoned upon our land.
With regularity one hears it parroted that
God’s blessings are upon this nation, those who give lip service only to the
God of all creation continually wring their hands in despair over the removal of
God from our coins, prayer from our schools and the Ten Commandments from our
public institutions. One can only wonder where these same people were when
sexual perversity and the teaching of social filthiness invaded our schools.
Where were they when derelict and avaricious politicians and government agents
incrementally and systematically dismantled the Constitution and destroyed the
individual liberties of the people? Under what rock were they hiding when the
killing of live babies was sanctioned and a host of soul killing perversions
were institutionalized?
Why would a supposed God-fearing people allow
such to come to pass? The truth is that the more than one-half of the people of
this country who call themselves Christian, a great majority of which are
ashamed to utter the name of Jesus Christ in public, have done more spiritual
damage than the totality of the non-religious, the atheists and the agnostics
who reside in the country.
God’s blessings were withdrawn from this
nation years ago, if that were not the case why is it that our vaunted power
came to naught in wars with such small peanuts on the international scene as
North Korea and North Viet Nam, two tiny two bit nations with little in the way
of sophisticated weaponry at the time of their conflict with the United States.
Some will bristle and bridle at this and many will alibi the defeats with any
number of excuses none of which will explain away the fact that they won and we
lost.
That God has broken our pride in our power is
not the worst of it, we are seeing increasingly the punishments for our national
sins and our refusal to keep faith with the Eternal God our creator and our
master. Perversions lie upon this land like a filthy blanket. The land stinks of
the rottenness of the lusts that prevail. We now find ways to make iniquitous
pursuits seem righteous. With the passing of statutes and a stroke of a pen,
Walla! We have made despicable sins acceptable or at least we think that we
have. We may fool the fools that pander after the lusts of the flesh that Satan
has put into their hearts, but we have not fooled the all-knowing omnipotent
God. Those who think that they have are in for a very rude awakening indeed.
The dam has been breached in regard to the rapid
delivery of the nation unto ever escalating catastrophes, manmade and natural, a
trickle of such has turned into a deluge.
The dollar has all but collapsed; the economy is
on its deathbed and kept barely alive by snake oil remedies that only prolong
its inevitable demise. Corporations and industry moguls have discerned the depth
of the sickness that they have contributed to and like rats off a sinking ship
they are abandoning the country of the birth of their enterprises and moving
their wealth and their assets to foreign lands. Crime flourishes; serial killers
and others of criminally debased minds stalk the land. The cities are immoral
cesspits and simmering racial tensions fed by illegal immigration and shattered
family units portend rapidly approaching riots of an astronomical and deadly
potential.
It used to be that natural calamities were
relatively rare occurrences, we now see deadly and super destructive natural
phenomena strike almost daily somewhere in the United States and the areas of
destruction are more widely spread. Devastating widespread flooding, thousands
of violent tornadoes, hurricanes of magnum strength and completely unseasonable
weather patterns are rapidly becoming the norm rather than the exception. The
10 most deadly natural disasters ever in the United States have all happened
within the past 10 years.
The secularists who make up the majority of the
scientific community and the national media would have us believe that all this
havoc is caused by men and the changes they have wrought in regard to
atmospheric conditions. They cannot be expected to know the real source of these
anomalies since they have no spiritual base whatever, even if they would open a
Bible they would be completely mystified by the contents. They prattle on
thinking that they are wise. They do not accept the things of the Spirit of God,
for it is foolishness to them; and they cannot understand these things because
they are spiritually discerned. Those who are enlightened and who do dissent in
regard to the global warming myth are bullied and threatened into silence, just
as those who question evolution are stifled by threats of loss of tenure,
censure and loss of jobs. The agents of deception who serve the dark spirits
cannot allow the light of truth to be shined upon the lies that they spin, and
since they have not the truth to rely on they resort to smearing those who will
not assent to their prevarications. A smirk, a sneer, a curled lip of disdain
and churlish commentary are the tools of their trade and a gullible public is
their ally in the transforming of their outright lies into fictitious truths.
The
unrighteousness of our people, the moral degradation upon the nation, the
rebellion against Almighty God and the rejection of His rule have brought us to
the cusp of absolute destruction. Repent
is not in our vocabulary and humility does not inhabit our soul, foolishness is
forever on our lips and pride and arrogance mark our character.
The ignorance of our leaders and the delusion
upon the people has made way for the institution of the elements of our own
destruction. Our cities are teeming with forty million illegal foreign
nationals with no allegiance to, or regard for, our safety or our domestic
tranquility. They see the American people
as intruders and interlopers on lands that they covet as their own. We
allow unfettered access to many thousands of Islamic militants each year and
have allowed them to establish hundreds of Mosques throughout the country, which
serve as sovereign citadels for subversion and truculence.
In deference to political correctness we have undermined our social
underpinnings and delivered up our schools and other institutions to moral
bankruptcy. Only a nation that has been cut-off by Almighty God could have been
handed over to such great vulnerability.
We have foolishly expended our resources and
frittered away our assets. Auguries of a coming food shortage are
upon us. We are diverting our crops to the
making of fuel and food reserves are at a thirty-year low. Food inflation has
become more serious than the rising cost of fuel. Given the unnatural weather
patterns that are upon us it is inevitable that we will in the very near future
experience massive crop failures through drought and other weather related
developments. Famine will bring us to riots of unthinkable dimensions.
The cities will erupt with the fires of such and the toll in death and
destruction will be fearsome. But, the end is not yet.
The cataclysmic events described heretofore will
weaken the nation and render us completely vulnerable to attacks by belligerent
nations. At the present time the fuse has been lit in the middle east that will
ignite most definitely a third world war. But, it will not be the Islamic
nations that will put an end to us. It will be the nations, our former enemies
of Europe, who have risen like a Phoenix from the ashes of their defeat and been
reborn in their nazi fascist image that will make an end of us.
Many have written to me and bewailed what they
see as a failure by me and other columnists to provide solutions to the problems
that we describe. They concede that we have accurately identified the
degradation that is upon our nation, but they want someone to provide the
answers that will deliver the nation from a seemingly imminent demise. The truth is that there are no secular solutions that will
deliver this nation. No resolution other than a nationwide confession of sin and
repentance thereof will save this nation.
In one of my articles I quoted the following
scripture and noted that some took umbrage over my application of this scripture
to the United States. Protestations to prophetic scripture will not prevent the
fulfillment thereof.
“How
much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and
sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and
shall see no sorrow. Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and
mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is
the Lord God who judgeth her. Revelation 18:7-8”

As
published in the article, (and if you dare to read it you can click
on) “The
Coming Destruction of The United States” . . . .
A vital matter that affects us all, is where our nation is
going, and what that means to each and everyone of us. I was told for a
very long time that "God" had left the United States out of His
Prophetic Word, and therefore we were not, as a nation, anywhere mentioned in
His Plan. It is still to my bewilderment, being said even to this day.
Here we are, the greatest nation in the history of mankind, and Jah doesn't even
mention us??? I have since learned that such teaching is one of the most
absurd stupidities in our arsenal of idiotologies. It is one of
the Serpent's major cover-ups to blind us
to what is really going on in the world today.
For those that would poo poo what I say in this article, I
prophesy unto you that the day will come when you will wish you had not done so.
This nation is going to be destroyed by a massive nuclear attack, and that you
can take to the bank. The suffering will be overwhelming for those that
were not fortunate enough to be at ground zero. May the words on this page
ring loud and clear in the ears of those that would not listen in that day!!!
What I am laying out in this article is not going to happen
this week, next month, or even by next year. I am not wanting to cause
hysteria that stirs people to do stupid things. This is a matter that will
take place at the end of the Great Tribulation, and we are some time from
that even beginning. However, judgment is already on this nation, and
increasing, and it will keep increasing unto this conflagration. We do
need to escape these escalating judgments, and there is only ONE AVENUE OF
ESCAPE, even "as it was in the days of Noah". That will not come
until we get on our faces before Jah, and earnestly seek it. The
pressures, stresses, agonies, will continue to increase to bring us to that
position.
Nahum
3 gives us a clear warning of what Jah thinks of, and will do to, a nation such
as we have become.
“1Woe to the bloody city! it is all full of lies and
robbery; . . . . . 5Behold, I am against thee, saith Jah of
hosts; and I will discover thy skirts upon thy face, and I will show the nations
thy nakedness, and the kingdoms thy shame. 6And I will cast
abominable filth upon thee, and make thee vile, and will set thee as a
gazingstock.”
Which nation is it
that has become the vilest, most filthy nation the earth has ever seen???
Then where is this "Abominable Filth" being poured out???
Our
King admonished us in Luke 21 to be praying constantly for something.
What was it???
And take
heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with
surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares
of this life (and I
repeat for emphasis) cares
of this life, and so
that day come upon you
unawares. 35For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of
the whole earth. 36Watch ye therefore, and
pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these
things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
How
many are following this command?
How
many “ministers” are preaching this one???
Are there ANY??? Then no
wonder so few are praying as our King admonished.
And, right when we are being hit with terrible diseases, hurricanes,
tornadoes, disastrous fries, floods, economic chaos, and on the list could go.
Who do we listen to, men, or the one who knows what He is talking about???
