Living In Biblical Times
The Bible as a sacred text renowned for its prophetic insights into humanity’s past, present, and future as it is written in 2nd Peter 1:21, For prophecy came not in old time by the will of men: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
From the very beginnings of Book of Genesis, to the ancient empires of the Old Testament and onto the Book of Revelation and the ‘End of Days,’ The Holy Scriptures is rich in tradition and the impending future of humankind to take heed to the Word of God and what comes next 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 that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts.
Hence, author Annette K. Mazzone wrote the book Lily Among Thorns Song of Solomon 2:2 In The Last Days 2nd Peter 3:3 where prophetic Bible prophecy comes alive. The novel Lily Among Thorns, host a cast of characters much like the people viewed in the picture above. People from all walks of life living out their daily lives amidst Biblical Prophecy, and searching the Bible for Biblical Truths.

Jerusalem a Cup of Trembling as it is written in Zechariah 12: 2,3, Behold I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all peoples round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem.

The last mighty conflict as it is written in Revelation 16:14, 16, For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.

Bible Prophecies and the Faithful

The people seated at a large table in the picture above represent all those who pray and study daily the Holy Scriptures, bought at a Great Price as it is written in Matthew 13: 45, 46, Again the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls. Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and brought it.
Devoted believers who had lived down through the ages and, the faithful still holding true to the standard of God, ‘The Bible’ as it is written in Isaiah 59:19, So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him.
The believers portrayed above trust in the Lord to help them navigate their way through a time referred to by the Lord Jesus Christ as ‘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.
