Meishu-sama’s Hymns
The time has come
When I finally prove to you the truth
In the profound mystery of the expression
“God-human.”
—————
O Kannon,
Unimaginable it was that
You chose to borrow my body.
Me, a man of lowly birth!
—————
Oh how happy it is to revere the glorious Messiah
Who descends amidst the voices of Hallelujah!
—————
Amidst the joyous and resounding shouts of Hallelujah!
The Messiah-Christ descends.
And, ah, it descends so quietly!
—————
It is I
Who have descended to the world
With authority
To save the sinful!
—————
When the end of days comes,
All people, without exception, will prostrate themselves before me.
Oh, how I look forward to that time!
—————
Only I.
It is only I
Who have been entrusted with the mission of God
To save the world!
—————
You have to be a human being
And God at the same time.
You have to be God
And a human being at the same time.
If not,
You cannot save the world.
Meishu-sama’s Sacred Word
“For the one-year anniversary of our publication, Jikan-Kyoshu (Meishu-sama) shares his thoughts: Manifestation of God’s power—The time has come when the Universe is to be blessed”
Question: As you know, Jesus Christ has also been designated as the Messiah. What is the relationship between our use of the term “Messiah” and the Christian use of it?
Meishu-sama: In the West, indeed, people call Jesus the Messiah, but let me say that they still do not have a concrete definition of the term “Messiah.” The Savior has yet to accomplish His true objective. Or rather, He was not able to manifest His true power until the first half of the twentieth century. But now, at last, the time has come when God reveals His true power. In the West, from now on, I am certain that the Christ is going to demonstrate his true potential. In the East, the Messiah will definitely manifest his true divine power. This cannot be understood with the kinds of religious notions we have had until today—a more mystic and majestic divine power will appear for the first time in human history. I am simply a representative of the Messiah, so I have no idea in what way or form the Messiah will take his course of action. But seeing, albeit slight, from how God is advancing His work now, I have a feeling that a tremendous spiritual power is going to bless the Universe—that I can say for the moment.
Messiah, no. 53, March 11, 1950

“Sermon, May 1, 1935”
Kannon will come from the place most high and descend to the place most low. Then, Kannon will climb up to the place most high again.

Bible
John 10:22–39
Then came the Festival of Dedication at Jerusalem. It was winter, and Jesus was in the temple courts walking in Solomon’s Colonnade. The Jews who were there gathered around him, saying, “How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Messiah, tell us plainly.”
Jesus answered, “I did tell you, but you do not believe. The works I do in my Father’s name testify about me, but you do not believe because you are not my sheep. My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father’s hand. I and the Father are one.”
Again his Jewish opponents picked up stones to stone him, but Jesus said to them, “I have shown you many good works from the Father. For which of these do you stone me?”
“We are not stoning you for any good work,” they replied, “but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God.”
Jesus answered them, “Is it not written in your Law, ‘I have said you are “gods”’? If he called them ‘gods,’ to whom the word of God came—and Scripture cannot be set aside—what about the one whom the Father set apart as his very own and sent into the world? Why then do you accuse me of blasphemy because I said, ‘I am God’s Son’? Do not believe me unless I do the works of my Father. But if I do them, even though you do not believe me, believe the works, that you may know and understand that the Father is in me, and I in the Father.” Again they tried to seize him, but he escaped their grasp.
