What I am about to say amounts to a brand new prophecy – a thing never before heard by anyone in the world. It is a picture of the future that I have pieced together from clues that have been given to me by God.
Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them.
Isaiah 42:9
Basically, this is me taking a further step, trusting in the method that has been revealed to me.
It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter.
Proverbs 25:2
The Bible explains that the way to find out whether a prophet has spoken truly that which he has been commanded to speak or spoken presumptuously is to see if the thing spoken comes to pass or not.
… the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die. And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word which the LORD hath not spoken? When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.
Deuteronomy 18:20-22
The prophecy is so extraordinary and new that it is hard to believe. Nevertheless, this is something that must be said, and apparently said as soon as possible, since it affects all the nations of the world, and people everywhere.
The prophecy that I have to tell is this:
On the day of the LORD, at the sounding of the seventh trumpet and the pouring of the seventh vial, the “holy ones” of God will be supernaturally reaped from many parts of the world, to form a new army of holy and immortal soldiers for the kingdom of God, and furthermore, God will make me the strongest of the saints, the equivalent of the archangel Michael who now leads the angels in heaven that remain loyal to God. My Christian or first name is Stephen, which means “crown”. The rest of my name is 练伟光. 练 spelt in Mandarin “lian” means “white silk” as in the silk road, or “practise” which is equivalent to 习 as in 习近平, Xi Jinping, the name of the current president of China. 伟 spelt in Mandarin “wei” means “big” or “great”. 光 spelt in Mandarin “guang” means “light”, “brightness”, “alone”, “honour”, “glory”, etc. Although I have a Chinese name, I will serve as a soldier in this army for Jesus Christ and the glory of the kingdom of God, as will others who have been chosen by God the Father in heaven and who have ancestry to the lost tribes of the preserved of Jacob, the 144000.
As part of “the bride of Christ”, a metaphor of Christianity, the entire army will be, to carry the metaphor further, the new queen of heaven – in other words, a royal priesthood, led by Jesus Christ, the “King of the saints”. Each saint, once he has been born again and made immortal, will lord over a certain part of the world, on behalf of the “Lord of lords”, who is also the “King of kings”.
I am saying all these things now so that everyone that listens can understand when it all begins to unfold.
Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them.
Isaiah 42:9
Let me now explain how I came to know this future.
A week or so ago, it occurred to me that “the battle axe and weapons of war” with which God will break in pieces the nations and even destroy kingdoms in Jeremiah 51:20 speak to the saints.
Around that time, I came across the poem “Tyger” by William Blake.
Blake correctly foretold the liberation of Jerusalem in 1917 by the British Empire from the Ottoman Turks. His 1808 poem “And did those feet in ancient time” was even made into a song using the music of Sir Hubert Parry in the year 1916, which is exactly 1 year before Jerusalem was liberated. That song, “Jerusalem”, became a popular anthem for England.
“And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon England’s mountains green:
And was the holy Lamb of God,
On England’s pleasant pastures seen!
And did the Countenance Divine,
Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded here,
Among these dark Satanic Mills?
Bring me my Bow of burning gold:
Bring me my arrows of desire:
Bring me my Spear: O clouds unfold!
Bring me my Chariot of fire!
I will not cease from Mental Fight,
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand:
Till we have built Jerusalem,
In England’s green and pleasant Land.”
In 1917, it did turn out that Jerusalem was “builded”, in a way, within the empire of England, an industrial empire, with factories and “mills”, and also aspects of the “Satanic” – secret societies such as Freemasonry, etc.
So, now to the poem Tyger. Blake’s poem Tyger caught my attention because I was born on 7 February 1975. In Chinese culture, this birth date points to the year of the “wood tiger”.
The poem was astonishing to me because William Blake was born in the year 1757 and he died in the year 1827. 57 reversed is 75, and 27 reversed is 72, or 7 February.
“Tyger Tyger, burning bright,
In the forests of the night;
What immortal hand or eye,
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
In what distant deeps or skies.
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What the hand, dare seize the fire?
And what shoulder, and what art,
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
And when thy heart began to beat.
What dread hand? and what dread feet?
What the hammer? what the chain,
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? what dread grasp.
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?
When the stars threw down their spears
And water’d heaven with their tears:
Did he smile his work to see?
Did he who made the Lamb make thee?
Tyger Tyger burning bright,
In the forests of the night:
What immortal hand or eye,
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?”
So, the tiger, in the poem spelt archaically as “tyger”, roams the “forests of the night”. Thus, this is a “wood tiger”, the tiger of the year 1975.
The word “wings” in the poem refers to the “wings as eagles” of a saint (ref. Isaiah 40:31).
The “fire” of the tiger’s eyes means it is a supernatural being, a metaphorical tiger never before seen, with the same sort of fire in his eyes that will be seen in the eyes of the Son of man when he returns to judge this world in wrath and righteousness (ref. Revelation 19:12), a world that has been led astray by Satan and his evil angels.
The “fearful symmetry” which opens and ends the poem, to my mind, includes the symmetry between the queen of heaven, which was once Lucifer and his angels, and the new forthcoming bride of Christ, the saints of Jacob, including Christians and Jews. The “immortal hand or eye” that could or would ever dare frame this fearful symmetry must be God the Father.
To state the obvious, except for God the Father who is one with the Son of God such an undertaking would be “fearful”, since the old queen of heaven partly went wrong, thereby causing the problem of “evil” these last 6000 years or so. God the Father is the only one who could make it work, if anyone could. He has done this via the metaphor of a smith working with a “furnace”, a “hammer”, an “anvil”, and also a “chain”.
Behold, I have created the smith the bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy.
Isaiah 54:16
To understand the furnace, you must realise that every human being is shaped by his experiences. His outlook and attitude to everything – his “brain”, as it were – depends on the life that he has lived so far. I think the point is that God has forged his “holy ones” throughout their lives for his purposes. He has made them see the things that they have to see, and learn the things that they have to learn. All of the saints are given to the Son of God by the Father, who is greater than the Son.
And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.
John 6:65
So, when the heart of this newly created tiger begins to beat, all of the enemies of God throughout the world, will begin to dread.
And then after some point, the saints, and in particular this wood tiger, will be victorious.
“When the stars threw down their spears
And water’d heaven with their tears:
Did he smile his work to see?
Did he who made the Lamb make thee?”
The poem also asks rhetorically whether the same God who had made the Lamb made this tiger.
As for how to explain the words “shoulder” and “art”, this is where Disney’s Mulan (2020) and Christina Aguilera’s soundtrack “Loyal Brave True” come into the mix.
“And what shoulder, and what art,
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?”
Critics say, the 2020 remake of Mulan was not the same in style and story as earlier versions. To many viewers in China, reportedly, this Disney adaptation appeared to be Chinese but still felt “foreign”.
Mulan (2020), at least to me, was more a spiritual and Christian message than anything else. Take, for example, the picture I have chosen: Mulan with what appears to be wings behind her back. This imagery speaks to the biblical concept of a “saint”, i.e. “wings as eagles”.
To add to that, the original story of Mulan has in it some gender-bending and cross-dressing comedy due to the circumstance of Mulan. That part of the story was cut out, making the metaphor of a bride of Christ clearer. It is surprising that Disney took it out, because more often than not Disney has been into wokeism, LGBTQ, and also feminazis. The result of this surprising omission is that Mulan (2020) becomes technically a Christian movie.
In the movie, the kingdom of God is represented by the metaphor of Imperial China, whose emperor in ancient times was literally known as “the son of heaven”, an expression close to the Son of God, or at least a son of God. Long ago, the emperors of China kept in mind the “mandate of heaven”, and carried out “border sacrifices” equivalent to Jewish temple sacrifices. However, by the time of Confucius, the purpose of those rituals had been forgotten.
Notice that the opponent of the empire, the Rourans wear black just like ISIS, and ride black horses as in the USA, the Babylon of the False Prophet at the time of the third seal of the apocalypse. On the side of the Chinese emperor, however, the soldiers wear robes or coats red in colour, the same colour on the flag of the CCP’s China, and also the same colour as the winepress of God (ref. Isaiah 63:2, Revelation 19:13).
The witch slave of the Rourans in part is supposed to be Lucifer or a demon, the old queen of heaven, an embodiment of evil. At one point in the movie, the witch even sits on the emperor’s throne like a queen, and she says the following to Mulan, “They accept you but they will never accept me.” At another time of the movie, the witch says to Mulan, “We are the same.” I guess, this is a reference to the symmetry thing in the poem Tyger: the queen of heaven and the bride of Christ.
In this adaptation, but maybe not others, Mulan metaphorically dies during a fight against the witch. Then, Mulan is resurrected, metaphorically speaking. When she awakes, she unravels her hair and removes her armour, deciding to serve openly as a female soldier in the army.
In Christian eschatology, at the time of the reaping, a saint is born again and given a new holy body. He is either resurrected from the dead or translated from among the living. When this happens, a saint is made a part of the bride of Christ, a figure of speech symbolising the army of God. In Greek, the word for “holy ones” before this point is masculine and after this point is feminine. This transformation from male to female is metaphorical. It has nothing to do with cross-dressing or transgenderism. If marital fidelity can be likened to faithfulness to God, then adultery or fornication must equate to the worship of rebellious angels, e.g. Greek polytheism or Indian Hinduism.
While story-wise, the secret that Mulan is hiding is her gender, the script of this adaptation is written such that the audience gets the impression that the thing that she is hiding is her qi, as in Tai-Chi and as in Ai-ki-do. This hidden qi is what gives Mulan her greater power when compared to the rest. Therefore, the implication is that what is being hidden is her destiny to serve in the position of leader.
The TV spot for “Commander” goes:
“You have been hiding something. I sensed it the moment I met you.”
“When they find out who you are, they will show you no mercy.”
“But only the most true will become a great warrior.”
“I will bring honour to us all.”
The TV spot of “Powerful” goes:
“There have been many tales…”
“… of the warrior.”
“She is our protector.”
This notion of protector speaks to the fact that the strongest of the saints will protect the entire army by serving in a special role. More about that later. For now, recall, what I have said elsewhere, that a saint can only be killed by another saint, and so if all of the saints remain loyal to God and Jesus Christ, as in there is no treachery or backstabbing, then all of the saints will be invincible.
At one point, the witch asks her, “Who are you?” This is a question that repeats again and again.
At first, Mulan does not know how to answer.
Witch: “Who are you?”
Mulan: “Soldier in the imperial army”.
Witch: “Then you will die pretending to be something you are not.
The story makes the point that Mulan is rejected by the army when her difference is revealed. But later, through combat, the army comes to appreciate her role in the scheme of things. Or something like that.
In one battle, Mulan shoots her arrow from a hidden spot. This is Isaiah 49:2.
And he hath made my mouth like a sharp sword; in the shadow of his hand hath he hid me, and made me a polished shaft; in his quiver hath he hid me; And he said unto me, Thou art my servant, O Israel, in whom I will be glorified.
Isaiah 49:2-3
In the contest towards the end between Mulan and the character played the actor who starred in the 1993 movie “Dragon”, the sword of Mulan’s father drops into the furnace, suggesting that the physical weapon that she wields is not as important as the person that she is.
Around this part of the movie, the emperor says to Mulan, “Rise up. You are a mighty warrior. Rise up like a phoenix. Fight for the kingdom and the people.” I see this as Isaiah 49, speaking to the first of the saints (ref. Isaiah 49:5-6) and then to all of the rest of the army (ref. Isaiah 49:7).
In the final scene, Mulan defeats the dragon with an arrow (ref. Isaiah 49:2) and a soccer butterfly kick. Long ago, at school, I used to play soccer during lunchtimes.
The movie ends with what appears to be a wedding procession, but then Mulan is presented to the emperor, bringing to mind the marriage of the Lamb. The emperor asks Mulan whether she would like to serve as an “officer” in the emperor’s guard.
As for what that means, let me say, around the time of the war for East Timor and sometime before then – I can’t remember when – I applied for admission to Royal Military College Duntroon, the Australian Defence Force. But I did not get in, a health issue.
But I will remove from off from you the northern army [the Assyrian’s army], and will drive him into a land barren and desolate, and with his face toward the east sea, and his hinder part toward the utmost sea, and his stink shall come up, and his ill savour shall come up, because he hath done great things.
Joel 2:20
Now, the life of a saint especially in these last days constitutes a “sacrifice” to God. For this sacrifice, the saint enters into a covenant with God (ref. Psalms 50:5).
In these last days, it will be difficult, and depending on where you are located, the enemy, as in Satan and his human agents and soldiers, will come for you.
And it was given unto him to make war with the saints…
Revelation 13:7
The Bible says, if you remain stedfast in the faith, and loyal to God, you will pass the tribulation and receive your reward.
Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Behold, all they that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded: they shall be as nothing; and they that strive with thee shall perish. Thou shalt seek them, and shalt not find them, even them that contended with thee: they that war against thee shall be as nothing, and as a thing of nought. For I the LORD thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee.
Isaiah 41:10-13
The voice over at the end of Mulan (2020) goes: “The green shoot has grown up to the sky and her ancestors celebrate her involvement with the heavens.”
This part – her ancestors celebrate – I think is why I have to make this prophecy that I am making, and as soon as possible. To my mind, this seems to have something to do with China, and the connection between the words 练 and 习.
By the way, notice that the actor playing the father of Mulan looks more or less like Xi Jinping.
In Mulan (2020), there is also a scene with a horse and two rabbits.
Figuratively, China is the horse at this time of the end (ref. Job 39:19-25), an army that will fight against the enemies of the LORD of hosts.
He swalloweth the ground with fierceness and rage: neither believeth he that it is the sound of the trumpet. He saith among the trumpets, Ha, ha; and he smelleth the battle from afar off, the thunder of the captains, and the shouting.
Job 39:24-25
As for the rabbits, in the year 1975, my year of birth, the wood tiger was next to the wood rabbit. A rabbit might symbolise marriage and children, but a tiger symbolises a warrior. All of the saints in these last days, all of the 144000, must be virgins (ref. Revelation 14:4), males without attachments and dependants so that no one can be compromised by the enemy.
Sing, O barren thou that didst not bear, break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou that didst not travail with child…
Isaiah 54:1
For thy Maker is thine husband; the LORD of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called.
Isaiah 54:5
Instead your “seed” will be like the “seed” of Jesus Christ himself: specifically, Christians that reside in the area that you have been given responsibility for.
And all thy children shall be taught of the LORD; and great shall be the peace of thy children.
Isaiah 54:13
Another thing is, Mulan (2020) was released March 27. That is 7 and 2 again, or 7 February.
The winning of China, for now an atheist nation that has forgotten God (ref. “heathen” and “men of the east”, Ezekiel 25:7-10), over to the cause of Jesus Christ is a part of God’s plan.
Now, to the second work of “art” that says things about my past and future: Ghostbusters: Afterlife (2021).
In this movie, there is a “Who are you?” question too.
In this story, with lots of metaphors and allusions, a financially struggling woman and her two children move into an old farm house owned by her father, one of the original ghostbusters. The daughter’s name is “Phoebe”, a Greek name which means “bright”. She is the protagonist in this story, since she is the one that figures it all out first, and she is the one that takes on the ghosts first.
The point is that the protagonist is poor, barely hanging on financially.
The LORD maketh poor, and maketh rich: he bringeth low, and lifteth up. He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes [saints], and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the LORD’s, and he has set the world upon them. He will keep the feet of the saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness; for by strength shall no man prevail.
1 Samuel 2:7-9
In the story, there is a podcaster, which is sort of like a news blogger.
Next, while an ordinary person might be afraid of hauntings and poltergeists or the like, a Christian especially a saint who understands the supernatural – God and angels and the war in heaven and so on – is not afraid. So, in this regard, Phoebe is smart and brave.
At one point in the story, her mother becomes possessed by an evil spirit. Believe it or not, in these last days, a simple painkiller off the supermarket shelf can be a nightmare. Anyway, later, apparently, the spirit is exorcised out of her.
The fact that her grandfather, one of the original ghostbusters, cut himself off from society to hold the line against the ghosts of a pit evokes the notion of “sacrifice”, which is something that only a saint can understand.
Gather my saints together unto me; those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice.
Psalms 50:5
Another thing is, unlike the other ghostbusters films, this one is biblical and apocalyptic. In particular, notice Revelation 6:12.
And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;
Revelation 6:12
Ghostbusters is also revelant in these last days because, my guess is, the molten and graven image (ref. Isaiah 41:29, Jeremiah 51:17) that Satan is going to use to try to deceive the world into thinking that he has the power to create life, as if he were God, is most likely America’s Statue of Liberty, since “Libertas” is the Roman expression of the goddess “Isis”. That statue in New York is made of copper, and copper is malleable and moveable when heated by friction. Therefore, a metal statue that appears to come to life would be nothing more than an illusion.
Every man is brutish by his knowledge; every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them. They are vanity, the work of errors: in the time of their visitation they shall perish.
Jeremiah 51:17-18
Now, to a third work of art: Nobody (2021).
Notice, at the end of the trailer, the FBI say, “Who the fuck are you?” To which the protagonist replies, “Me? I’m nobody.”
In Nobody (2021), Hutch Mansell is a CIA assassin that serves in the capacity of an “auditor”, a splinter cell that checks on other soldiers and agents, and is licensed to kill them if they have become treacherous. Once long ago, I briefly worked for a company called “Maunsell” that audited the work of survey-takers on trams and trains. Mansell; Maunsell: an extra letter “u”.
So, to my mind, Nobody (2021) is speaking about the work of the “waster”, the most powerful of the saints.
Behold, I have created the smith the bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy.
Isaiah 54:16
In the story, Hutch has a tattoo on his arm signifying his role as an expert assassin: the numbers 7 and 2, expressed in the form of a poker hand known as “the hammer”. A 7 and 2 starting hand, my birth date again, apparently is the worst possible starting hand in the game of poker.
Also, the antagonist, “Yulian” who is killed by a C4 explosive on the opposing side of a shield looks like Hugh Hefner. Lian 练 is my name, so there is an extra “Yu”.
One of the best scenes of the movie is when Hutch burns all of the money of the mob, to the tune of the song “Impossible Dream” from Man of La Mancha.
“To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
To reach the unreachable star
This is my quest, to follow that star
No matter how hopeless, no matter how far
To fight for the right without question or pause
To be willing to march into hell for a heavenly cause
And I know if I’ll only be true
To this glorious quest
That my heart will lie peaceful and calm
When I’m laid to my rest
And the world will be better for this
That one man, scorned and covered with scars
Still strove, with his last ounce of courage
To fight the unbeatable foe.
To reach the unreachable star”
So that was the third work of art.
Now to a fourth: Brightburn (2019).
The same repeating question “Who am I?” occurs in this movie as well.
First, the expression “burning bright” is in the Tyger poem, so I must include this movie.
Next, at a school, the students wear a T-shirt with a picture of an eagle, signifying a saint. The others in the class don’t like Brandon. He does not fit in. I suppose, he is someone that has been “set apart”, sanctified, a saint. It reminds me of my primary school years.
The main soundbite of Brightburn (2019) is “Take the world!”
Another that stands out is this: “I want to tell you what I learned tonight. I learned that I’m very special. You’re one of the only people in the world that know how special I am. But someday they will all know.”
Brandon Breyer is an anti-Superman. If Superman is supposed to represent Satan and the Antichrist (Kal-El, Mary, Joseph, etc), then Brandon Breyer must be someone on the opposite side – the side of God.
Brandon Breyer’s emblem, two symmetrical B’s, is said to resemble the sigil of what is known as “God Hand”. Also, the two symmetrical B’s, which spell BB, appear like an 8, as in 888 – the isopsephy of Jesus Christ.
His chosen antihero costume alludes to a certain wasp that in nature is unable to build a nest and instead lets its young be adopted by others. Two things are being said here. First, there is the story of Brightburn (2019): the boy alien has been sent to earth to be adopted and raised by human parents. Second, there is the idea of the scattering and re-gathering of the children of the ancient kingdom of Israel. Remember, Hosea 1:10-11 prophesies that Israel would be scattered as a people by the Assyrians in 722 BC, to be adopted and raised by foreigners across the world, and then re-gathered in the last days as “the sons of the living God”, i.e. soldiers of a new army for the kingdom of God.
Now, in the story, notice that the violence that Brandon Breyer exacts on the world is deliberate and calculated. He breaks the hand of a classmate who falsely accused him. He threatens his aunt, after she causes problems for him. He kills his uncle by breaking his jaw, an allusion to shutting someone up and stopping further misinformation. He also kills a woman with one eye as in the all-seeing-eye of Lucifer. That woman was a person who had criticised him earlier in the day in front of others. He even kills two police officers who come after him. No one and nothing can interfere with his mission, to take the world.
No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.
Isaiah 54:17
Concerning the boy’s vengeance against his adoptive parents, whom I think are supposed to represent the country that a saint happens to be in, this is 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.
Revelation 13:10
Basically, whomever harms a saint at the time of the two beasts of Satan (ref. Daniel 7:21, Revelation 13:7, Isaiah 10:14) will be punished when the tables turn. The point is, don’t obey the Devil when his time comes, because the Devil’s power will not last.
So, Brightburn (2019) is most certainly a movie about the saints.
Of course, no saint should kill or harm anyone right now, because no one has yet been born again.
Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.
1 Corinthians 4:5
As I see it, the main takeaway of Brightburn (2019) is loyalty to God no matter what, because the work of a saint is to destroy the enemy wherever he is. Your devotion as a son of God should be to God. Your fealty as one of God’s soldiers should be to the kingdom of God rather than to the country that you are currently in (ref. 1 Peter 2:9-10).
But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: Which in time past were not a people, but are now a people of God: which had not obtained mercy [think ancient Assyria], but now have obtained mercy [through Christianity].
1 Peter 2:9-10
Now, moving to the Chinese sounding soundtrack of Christina Aguilera, “Loyal Brave True”.
The name “Christina” means “follower of Christ”, and Aguilera is literally “eagle’s nest”. So, clearly, her name points to the idea of the saints.
To me, the entire song is meaningful and stirring. The lyrics can only be understood in light of everything I have said in this article so far.
“War is not freedom
Over my shoulder
I see a clearer view
All for my family
Reason I’m breathing
Everything to lose
Should I ask myself in the water
What a warrior would do?
Tell me, underneath my armor
Am I loyal, brave and true?
Am I loyal, brave and true?
Losing is easy
Winning takes bravery
I am a tiger’s fool
Out in the open
No one to save me
The kindest of whispers are cruel
Should I ask myself in the water
What a warrior would do?
Tell me, underneath my armor
Am I loyal, brave and true?
Am I loyal, brave and true?
Cold is the morning
Warm is the dream
Chasing the answers
‘Til I can’t sleep
Will I be stronger
Or will I be weak
When you’re not with me?
Who am I without my armor?
Standing in my father’s shoes
All I know is that it’s harder
To be loyal, brave and true”
I even happened to search for this on YouTube to look into it early one morning when it was cold, because I had watched Mulan (2020) for the first time the night before:
“Cold is the morning
Warm is the dream
Chasing the answers
‘Til I can’t sleep”
As for the chorus of the song, only a saint can understand the message (ref. Revelation 14:3 ?).
Should I ask myself in the water
What a warrior would do?
Tell me, underneath my armor
Am I loyal, brave and true?
Am I loyal, brave and true?
What it means is this: “commune with your own heart” (ref. Psalms 4:4, Psalms 77:6), the words of both David and Asaph, both in their day saints themselves.
I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart: and my spirit made diligent search.
Psalms 77:6
Stand in awe, and sin not: commune with your own heart upon your bed, and be still. Selah. Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the LORD.
Psalms 4:4-5
Next, there are four chinese characters in Mulan (2020) on the sword that she is given by the emperor, who is supposed to be the Son of God. These four are 忠勇真孝. My guess is, each one points to one of the four works of art that I have brought up. All four works of art have bits and pieces from my life; and all four tell me something about my role among the saints.
First, loyal 忠 Mulan (2020). Second, brave 勇 Ghostbusters Afterlife (2021). Third, true 真 Nobody (2021). Fourth, devotion to family 孝 Brightburn (2019).
I hope I have not been too slow in figuring all of this out. Disney released Mulan on 4 September 2020. Today is 9 September 2023. I haven’t had the opportunity and I didn’t think to watch Mulan (2020) until now.
Of course, China may well be the next seal, the second seal of the apocalypse, the beginning of world war 3!
The task of the saints in these last days while in human form is to wage an information war against Satan for souls.
And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits. And they that understand among the people shall instruct many: yet they shall fall by the sword, and by flame, and by captivity, and by spoil, many days. Now when the shall fall, the shall be holpen with a little help: but many shall cleave to them with flatteries. And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed.
Daniel 11:32-35
Going back to the song, it cannot be a coincidence that the parts “over my shoulder” and “tiger” correspond to the “shoulder” and “art” of the poem “Tyger”.
“Everything to lose” needs no explanation. And “winning takes bravery” sounds right too. This leads me to the question that I am to ask myself, “Am I loyal, brave and true?”
Mulan (2020) and this song seem to me as if I have been commanded by God to prophesy for the sake of the saints and for the kingdom of God.
After much thinking, I have reached the conclusion that it must have something to do with Isaiah 49 and the position of the most powerful among the saints, something that I have not addressed so far.
To be clear, I won’t sit on the throne of the kingdom like royalty. That kind of thing would belong to the 12 apostles (ref. Matthew 19:28, Luke 22:30). I am to be more a soldier of the kingdom, and a special one at that.
I am sure some of you will mock me and disregard these things that I have said, as the song foretells. Nevertheless, those that do understand will understand. And I should like to believe there is purpose to all of this.
Truth is also a sign of a saint. Hence it was made into a big thing in Mulan (2020).
And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.
Revelation 14:5
But above all, loyalty to God is what matters. This is the covenant between Jesus Christ and the army of the saints, collectively the bride of Christ.
… Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.
Psalms 2:12
While Isaiah 53 prophesies the first coming of Jesus Christ some two thousand years ago, the very next chapter, Isaiah 54, is all about the saints, a never-before-heard idea of a new army of God.
Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed?
Isaiah 53:1
So, who am I?
I think the message from all this is that: I am a “great warrior”, a “ghostbuster”, for now a “nobody”, but eventually someone “special”, being one of the predestinated saints of God, by the looks of things the most powerful of the forthcoming army, in a way the equivalent to the archangel Michael.
