" O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you" - A Prophet or A Psychic

A Prophet or A Psychic

The world has been watching the funeral of the Queen of the U.K., but something seems to be wrong, since Christ Jesus said: what went ye out for to see?
Matthew 11, King James Version
7 And as they departed, Jesus began to say unto the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind?
8 But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? behold, they that wear soft clothing are in kings' houses.
9 But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? yea, I say unto you, and more than a prophet.
10 For this is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.
11 Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
12 And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.
13 For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.
14 And if ye will receive it, this is Elias, which was for to come.
15 He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. 
Christ Jesus apparently mentioned in sarcasm the phrase "A man clothed in soft raiment? behold, they that wear soft clothing are in kings' houses." And, He emphasized the phrase "A prophet? yea, I say unto you, and more than a prophet."

In short, what you have to go and see is a prophet but not a deceased king or queen.

A Japanese medical doctor, Nobuo Shioya (1902 - 2008), is not recognized as a prophet.  But, he performed a kind of psychic healing with his hand.  He also studied spiritual power, hosting a seance many times to confirm that there are dead men's spirits.  He also spiritually communicated with a great spirit, called Mr. Omina, who had lived hundreds years ago. 

Mr. Omine told Shioya in about 1950 that the word would have to face a great crisis 60 years later due to corruption and degradation of the human civilization.  The axis of the Earth might be moved by 90 degrees.  Although a great earthquake and tsunamis occurred in 2011 in Japan, causing the Fukushima nuclear accident, the human civilization have been sustained so far despite the corona pandemic and Russian military aggression into Ukraine in addition to China's large-scale military drills around Taiwan.       

However, Shioya thought of a method to avoid the expected tragedy: Join hands in a special form, breathe deeply to the center of the abdomen, and pray in the mind that true peace has already come to the world due to God's great power concentrating in the earth.  He practiced this method many times a day.  Probably, his effort must bear fruit, so that the world has been so far in peace and safety.  

As medical doctor Shioya realized that he had not fully contributed to the society when he became over 90 years old, he started to write many books until his death at 105.  He can be regarded as a kind of prophets, but it seems that he wanted to be regarded as a psychic who had formulated a method to avoid the coming tragedy on the human civilization.

Mark 9, King James Version
19 He answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me.
20 And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.
21 And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child.
22 And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us.
23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.
