“And you might say how it is you then get people the likes of me. Well, behind these walls my official title is SPF Commander Stefan Gerard Strobeck.”

A all-consuming “Sinister Enmity” is  swiftly enveloping the globe, and at present, as a Christian young woman living in the most perilous time in history. I pondered while searching the Holy Scriptures for answers why it is I feel like a small benevolent cog in a gigantic fierce malevolent machine, and with this, I started to read as it is written in James 3: 14-18, But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth. This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish. For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work. But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.

“I want to help you, Lillian, and the first chance I get, I’ll see to it you’re out of here. Even if it be in my custody and if it were in my power, I’d let you and Rawlands go right now, to go and live out the remainder of yours days in peace. But there are powers that be above my authority who are determined not to let this happen.”

I just knew by his expression he knew me to speak the truth, and even so, and with this being my regrettable reality, I quickly turned back round before his adoring eyes would change my resolve. Taking a deep breath, I was just on the verge of making my final move when he went on ahead and said the words I’d only been able to dream of him saying to me thus far.

“I love you, Lily.”

The portrait picture above portrays the likeness of the main character Lily holding a white lily flower representing the purity of her Christian Faith in the Enthralling and Moving Love Story, that is the contemporary novel, Lily Among Thorns Part 1.

Lily is on a path leading to a mighty stronghold living in the Biblical time of the ‘Last Days.’ Destiny has chosen Lily to live at such a time as this the Lord Jesus called the Great Tribulation 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 ever shall be.

“I am pleading with you, Lily, to see things as they are. Don’t you know it’s what I hope for and pray for. That you will be safe and out of the hands of these wicked men. Please Lily, please give me the peace of mind in knowing you’ll be out of danger. Now I want you to promise me, on our love for one another, that by whatever act of God, if there be a way for you to get yourself out of this hellish nightmare, you will take it and run. And to never look back.”

I found myself in a state of disbelief, which turned into contempt by the time it took me to take my very next step, because who should I find fraternizing with the enemy. None other than Jared Hargrove!

Exploring the Biblical “End Times” prophecy envelopes the entire human history and so it is with the Holy Scriptures from the first book of the Bible, the book of Genesis, to the very last chapter of the Bible the pages found in the book of Revelation. The novel Lily Among Thorns a 3 Part Trilogy takes the reader on a perilous, but heartwarming romantic story of a young woman in her mid-twenties, and as a Bible Believing Christian living as a part of the “Last Generation.” Persecution is on the horizon for the faithful living in the rapidly rising of the “Global Beast Regime,” as it is written in Luke 21:32, Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled.

“Lily, I can help you. I can get you out of here. But you must come with me right now. Please, Lily, it’s the only way, and we must act immediately.”

Patiently waiting to see if I would respond, I came around to Jared’s thoughtfulness and said, getting straight to the point, “How were you able to get me out of headquarters”

“…..I’d rather not go into details on just exactly how I finally did manage to get you out, because the less you know, the better off you are…..But I don’t think I would have been able to achieve favorable results it it hadn’t been for a Commander Strobeck.”

The enemy, that “Old Serpent” knowing his time is short emits great wrath upon the Earth, as it is written in Revelation 12:12, Therefore rejoice ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! For the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth  that he hath but a short time.

History is repeating itself forthwith and once again a Christian believing in the Gospel message of salvation through the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ is once more considered a crime against the state as it is written in Revelation 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
