A Believer in Jesus Christ the character Lily is in strong opposition to the taking of the “Mark of the Beast” and thereby pledging allegiance to the ancient arch-enemy of humankind the “Dragon” also known as that “Old Serpent” documented in the Book of Genesis of the Holy Bible as a dire warning to the Faithful to beware! And here in lies the crux of the story in the romantic & adventurous novel Lily Among Thorns follows a beautiful damsel named Lily, a young woman in her mid-twenties who is a faithful Christian in a time when ancient prophecies of the Holy Scriptures are leaping off the pages of the divine inspired Holy Bible. And as such  Lily finds herself in peril living in an increasingly complete surveillance society by the “Beast (Antichrist) Global Regime” in defiance against the righteous cause of the God of hosts, as it is written in Psalms 80:19, Turn us again, O LORD God if hosts, cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.

Lily has Chosen the Eternal Destiny that leads to salvation in Christ Jesus which living in the age of Book of Revelation puts Lily in dire straits taking to heart the warnings of the “Great Tribulation” as an unparalleled extreme hazardous time in history as it is written in Matthew 24:21, For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time no nor shall ever shall be.

The Holy Bible “Trust Worthy & True” Lily is secure in her faith and takes to heart to “Watch and Pray Always” to escape the terrors of the “Great Tribulation,” as it is written in Luke 21:36, Watch 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.

A “Last Days Story” is the novel Lily Among Thorns taking the reader on a perilous journey through the “Time of the End.” Along the way Lily finds “True Love” in a handsome suitor named Caleb and the faithful lovers are in constant peril by the “Menstealers” of the “Oppressive Beast Regime, ” as it is written in 2nd Timothy 3:1, This know also, that in the “Last Days” perilous Times” shall come.

The Faithful Christian Couple Lily & Caleb are living proof not even an all powerful evil regime can quench the spark of love gifted from the Creator God as it is written in Song of Solomon 8:7, Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it: (Meaning the greatest trials cannot destroy love.) if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would utter be contemned. (Meaning here, Love is priceless and cannot be brought by materialism.)

Predestined the Loving Couple Lily & Caleb are by no means without hope and trust in the guiding light of the Holy Scriptures of the Bible to see them through the severe dangerous times of the “Last Days.” as it is written in Psalms 119:105, Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

The General Consensus toward the Bible believing Christian at the “End of Days” is one of mockery & ridicule as it is written in 2nd Peter 3:3 Knowing this first that there shall come in the last day scoffers walking after their own lusts.

Lily to Remain Steadfast and true to her faith she must trade-off her freedom for servitude to an oppressive all powerful “World Beast Cabal”. And thus remain steadfast in her decision by taking to heart the urgent warning as it is written in Matthew 10:33, But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.

Lily Could Never had imagined her faith in the Lord Jesus Christ would lead her to be at the mercy of a debase “Global Beast System.” The “Menstealers.” unbothered to violate traditional “Civil Liberties” for all those who are in opposition of the “Mark of Beast.” And as such the conflict of the “Last Days” intensifies and Lily heeds the “Word’s” advance notice as it is written in Revelation 13:10, He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.

Who is this “Dragon” who persecutes Lily a faithful follower in Jesus Christ and all the saints opposed to the “Mark of the Beast” agenda. The answer to this significant question  and the identity of this “Dragon” the truthful answer can be found in the sacred text of the Holy Bible as it is written in Revelation 20:2, And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil (the supreme personified spirit of evil), and Satan, and bound him a thousand years.

What are the “Dragon’s” aka the Devil, the Beast, and the False Prophet Final Destination. We also can find the answer as it is written in Revelation 20:10, And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

Lily is Assured of her eternal destination from the Holy Scriptures, the Bible, by the Lord Jesus Christ as a more sure word of prophecy as it is written in 2nd Peter 1:19, We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts.
