Openly Claiming “Jesus received blood of Mary,” the relationship came to the surface
Major Makoto Yamaya of Salvation Army Japan published his own theological stance titled “Jesus received blood of Mary” and expressed his support for the theory of Jesus’ birth through Mary’s menstrual blood. Pastor Sam-kyung Chae also supports the same theory. The controversy over Jesus birth through Mary’s menstrual blood is becoming more serious in Korean Christianity as it has caused uproar in the Christian Council of Korea, Presbyterian Church of Korea (PCK) Tonghap, the denomination that Chae belongs to, and PCK Hapdong, the largest denomination in Korea. The Korean Christian community is looking closely at how the controversy of Chae’s tritheism and the the theory of Jesus’ birth through Mary’s menstrual blood concludes.
Chae ongoingly claimed this theory after he published it in Korean magazine “Church and Faith” in August 2005. Petition from the general secretaries of 7 member denominations were sent to the Christian Council of Korea (CCK) asking for punishment about this, and after the discussion by the executive board members last October 7, the Order Establishment Committee was commissioned to investigate this.
The committee scrutinize the audio record of Chae’s speech, writings on the
magazine inviting professors and experts from related fields. This investigation took 2 months and the committee submitted investigation report on 2011 November 24th to CCK’s board meeting.
Pastor Sam Kyoung Chae’s claims, which were released through a writing published in the Contemporary Religions [HyunDaeJongKyo] in August 2005, the writing distributed to the representatives of the 95th General Assembly of PCK Tonghap, an internet newspaper, Church and Faith (amennews.com), which he serves a standing director, etc, can be summarized as the following:
1. Jesus was conceived and born through Mary’s menstruation.
2. When pregnant, a woman's menstruation stops and the menstruation goes to the fetus and through “the blood” the baby grows.
3. Without Mary’s menstruation, Jesus could not have been born.
4. If it is said that Jesus was born without Mary’s menstruation, his human nature is denied.
5. Jesus grew for ten months in Mary’s womb through her menstruation, and if it were not for the menstruation, then Jesus did not need to stay in Mary’s womb for ten months.
6. If it is said that the theory of conception through menstruation denies Jesus’ divine nature, it logically makes sense.
7. It is heretical to say that Jesus was not born through menstruation.
8. Calvin also said Jesus was born through Mary’s blood (menstruation) and seed (egg).
9. God made Mary conceive Jesus using her egg, genes, phakoma, etc.
10. Virgin birth means Mary did not become pregnant through Joseph's semen.
In response to these Chae’s claim, in the investigation report CCK’s Order Establishment Committee told following:
The first core point of the theory of conception through menstruation is whether Jesus was born through Mary’s menstruation. Rev. Sam Kyung Chae contended that “If Jesus was not born through Mary’s menstruation, then Jesus’ human nature is denied” and “If he was not born through menstruation then he did not need stay in Mary’s womb for ten months.” This means that Jesus grew up in Mary’s womb through Mary’s menstruation and was born. Rev. Chae's claims assert that if he was not born through menstruation, his human nature is denied. What is the human nature? The human nature means he became a human. The claim that 'If Jesus was not born through Mary’s menstruation, (It is impossible for Jesus to be born in the way Rev. Chae suggests.) it denies his human nature.' eventually means that if it was not Mary’s menstruation, then Jesus could not have become a man.
… Another core point of theory of conception through menstruation is about whether Jesus’ life
was created, or whether he is the preexisting God.
Who gave life to Jesus who was conceived in Mary’s body? Where did it come from? The Bible says “conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.” That means the life of Jesus was given through the Holy Spirit. The life was clothed with the physical body through Mary.
Leviticus 17:14 “the life of every creature is its blood”
Leviticus 17:11 “the life of a creature is in the blood”
Genesis 9:4 “you must not eat meat that has its lifeblood still in it”
Leviticus 17:11 “it is the blood that makes atonement for one’s life”
The Bible says the blood is the life itself. Then, the blood of Mary is the life of Mary. If Jesus was born through Mary's blood, then it is Mary who gave life to Jesus. The Bible clearly says that Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit. Rev. Chae's assertion that "Jesus was born through Mary's menstruation" means that it is Mary who eventually gave Jesus life.
The blood of Mary is the life of Mary. Insisting that Jesus was born through the blood of Mary is suggesting that Mary gave life to Jesus. It is denying the Bible stating "conceived by the Holy Spirit." If Mary's blood entered into Jesus (the blood of mother never goes to the baby), Jesus, after all, gained life from Mary. Then, since Jesus was born through the blood of Mary, he becomes a mere man just like us Therefore, Rev. Chae's claiming "Jesus' human nature is denied if he was not born through Mary's menstruation" is same as asserting that Jesus cannot become a man without Mary's menstruation(blood) (His human nature is denied.). Namely, his assertion is that Jesus' life was through the blood of Mary.
...In conclusion, the so-called theory of conception through menstruation and tritheism weakens the nature of pre-existence of Jesus and thus damages Jesus' divine nature. Also, his theory denies the human nature of Jesus, who was conceived from the Holy Spirit by claiming that Jesus' incarnation was impossible without Mary's menstruation. His theory is a heretic theory which denies the human nature of Christ. Moreover, when his theory denies or weakens the divine nature and the human nature of Christ, it makes not only Christology, but also doctrine of God, soteriology, and the doctrine of atonement collapse.
CCK: “Chae distorts Calvin”, but Yamaya Stands With Chae
In his most recent claim, Yamaya said that the “stance of Chae and the stance of Calvin is completely identical and the same”. He also defended Chae saying that “if they judge Rev. Chae as heretic, then it means that they also judge Calvin as a heretic together”. In the investigation report of CCK’s Order Establishment Committee, Chae claims likewise: “8. Calvin also said Jesus was born through Mary’s blood (menstruation) and seed (egg).” The claims of Yamaya and Chae are the same, which means Yamaya is standing together with Chae.
Against Chae bringing Calvin, the committee said in the investigation report that “Moreover, he distorted Calvin and made the birth of Christ as a biological birth, making it laughable, and shaking the root of Christian faith. It can be said to be the most devilish heresy than all the other heresies in the church history” The committee concluded “The member denominations and organizations have agreed to send out a warning and we are announcing as follows about tritheism and the theory of Jesus’ birth by Mary’s menstrual blood by the grave heretic Sam-kyoung Chae who committed blasphemy; there must never be anyone in Christianity who asserts the same thought or defends those who do.”
After receiving investigation report from the Order Establishment Committee, CCK resolved Chae as “Heresy, Blasphemy” in the board meeting held in 2011 December 15th. CCK published statement on 2011 December 19th saying “This is blasphemy unprecedented in 2000 history of Christianity. ‘Sam-kyoung Chae Theology’ has crossed over the forbidden door and desecrated the divinity of Jesus Christ and the traditional Christian doctrine. Therefore, all traditional churches in Korea and the Christians must not be bewildered by this ‘Sam-kyoung Chae theology’ and never defend anyone who makes such assertion nor have any interaction with them.“
Chae’s blood theory also brought controversy in his own denomination
Chae’s theory brought controversy in his own denomination, PCK Tonghap. In the denomination, the controversy has been serious to the point that Chae’s claim which says “Mother’s blood goes to baby in the womb after pregnancy” is criticized that “It never happens medicinally”.
Rev. Chang-young Kim who asserted “Tong Hap General Assembly never revoked the tritheist as heretic” about Rev. Sam Kyoung Chae (Light and Salt Church), Chair of Heresy Countermeasure Committee at PCK Tong Hap, and was sued for defamation by Rev. Chae and found not guilty at the Supreme Court on August 30. The Supreme Court (Justice of the Supreme Court Judge Sang-hoon Lee, Justice of the Supreme Court Chief Young-chul Shin and Yong-duk Kim) dismissed the appeal of the second trial which found Rev. Kim not guilty.
Chae had promoted heretical doctrine of tritheism, using expressions such as “three spirits of God”, thus ruled as a heretic at the 87th General Assembly of PCK (TongHap). That investigation report also showed that Pastor Sam-Kyung Chae promoted cessationism unlike the doctrine of PCK (TongHap), pointing out that this is “unbiblical and denying Westminster Confession and the Presbyterian denomination’s confession.”
In the interview with the Christian Today Korea on October 19, 2009, Rev. Kim said: “Pastor Sam Kyoung Chae has been resolved as someone who upholds tritheism, and we only received a document that the presbytery instructed him without a decision. But he has raised countless problems during his activities at the heresy committee in CCK and his denomination, and the General Assembly concluded on his responsibility. Who can accept a person who has heretical thoughts himself hunting down and punishing heretics.”
In court, Chae insisted that “I was never pronounced as a heretic at Tonghap so mentioning its revocation itself is false and defamatory.” However, the court said in the verdict that “Pastor San Kyoung Chae was denounced as a heretic at Tonghap, and this was never exonerated through proper procedure” and affirmed Rev. Kim’s claim.
In the denomination, in order to pass a bill, submitter of the bill is required to submit it 3 months before the general assembly is held through the presbytery the person belongs to. However, Sam-kyung Chae did not go through the process. Chae made a resolution of the heresy committee of the denomination that says “Sam-kyung Chae is not heresy” in the emergency meeting of the committee just one week before the general assembly and submitted the result to the general assembly this September. The chair of the committee is Sam-kyung Chae himself.
The largest denomination in Korea resolved Chae’s blood theory as heretic
On December 30, in Seoul Dae-chi dong, the General Assembly conference center 96th Hap-Tong General Assembly's 2nd Policy Execution Committee, the bill titled "Request for Agreement to Identify Pastor Sam-kyung Chae as Heretic" have resolved by the unanimous votes.
On the side of Hap-tong, an commitee called "Comittee to Process Pastor Samu-kyung Chae as heretic" setting Pastor Sae-chun Moon as the committee chair. The report of the committee told "Chae is a heretic that is against the reformed faith, with the magazine supporting "Church and Faith", anyone who is defending him is his collaborator" was announced.
Gyu-cheol Hwang, General Secretary, said, "Because [Chae] keeps insisting the Tritheism and Jesus' birth by Mary's menstruation, the controversy must be put to an end this time." Ki-chang Lee, the President of Hap-tong, "This place does not even need to discuss issues not even worth considering to discuss from here," he said. "Tritheism and Jesus' birth by Mary's menstruation can never be accepted," he asserted. Several other attendees shouted out loud, "Needless to discuss, these types of ideas are heretic."
Resolutions against Chae making him as heretic is not done only in Korea. Its is same as the denomination's affiliated churches in all over the world. AUKPOC is affiliated with Presbyterian Church of Korea (HapTong) and includes synods of countries other than Korea. A series of meetings among churchgoers which began in 1978 in the United States eventually led to the formation of the general assembly in 1996. Its four synods - which include 30 presbyteries - are the Northeast Asia synod, America synod, Asia-pacific synod, US-Korea synod.
The General Assembly of The United Korean Presbyterian Overseas Church (AUKPOC) held its 34th general assembly between May 22-25 at Thailand Bangkok Grace Church (pastor Suk-cheon Park). There were 13 items on the general assembly's agenda. Among them, the general assembly reconfirmed a resolution made by the Global Mission Seminary that declared pastor Sam-kyung Chae as a heretic.
PCK Hapdong held the 97th general assembly from September 17th to 21st in Daegu and elected Rev. Joon-mo Jung as new chairperson. Once having declared “War Against Heretics” during his inaugural address, he emphasized that he will deal with the issues on heretics strictly during the term of his appointment. About Sam-kyoung Chae who is declared as ‘heretic’ by the CCK and Hapdong’s Executive Committee, he said “Birth by Mary’s menstrual blood is not right. I respect the decision by the general assembly.”
Yamaya’s support for Chae comes to the surface
It was said that Yamaya and Chae are working together. However, this time it was confirmed by Yamaya’s own public support of Chae’s theory of Jesus’ birth through Mary’s menstrual blood that both of them share the same theological stance. How will the Salvation Army respond theologically to Yamaya’s support of Chae’s theory?
Yamaya’s support of Chae is drawing attention from Japanese Christian leaders, who are questioning the timing of his action amid the controversy in Korean Christianity.

Yamaya Distorts and Hides Facts in Recent Movement on Korean Christianity
Yamaya Makoto, a major of Salvation Army Japan, recently distorted and hid facts regarding the recent movement on Korean Christianity, such as about CCK, CCIK or denominational movements. Yamaya has a long history of twisting and omitting facts to serve his purpose, but especially Yamaya’s Sept. 28 claim was strongly seditious.
Yamaya talked about a meeting held by CCIK’s Orthodox Faith Defense Committee, but in fact, the committee’s chair is illegal. The chair of the committee, the Rev. Keundoo Jung, belongs to a denomination called Presbyterian Churches of Korea Kosin. The PCK Koshin’s general assembly held on September 20th accepted the report of the denomination's Governance and Regulation Committee which says that the “Former chair of our denomination, Rev. Keundoo Jung’s activity in CCIK violates constitution of the denomination because the activity was without approval of the denomination and the denomination did not send him.”
PCK Koshin, to which Rev. Keundoo Jung belongs, formed the Committee for countermeasure and study about withdrawal from CCK. The committee confirmed articles of CCK, interviewed people involved in CCK and CCIK, and submitted the result as a report to the general assembly. The committee said in the report that “What is more important than withdrawal is, renewing CCK and make effort to reform it to inherit the founder's spirit,” and opposed withdrawal from CCK. Some pastors such as Rev. Keundoo Jung and Rev. Setaek Oh strongly claimed withdrawal but most of the attendees accepted the result.
PCK Koshin did not withdraw from CCK nor became a member of CCIK. The denomination did not send Rev. Keundoo Jung. So the CCIK’s Orthodox Faith Defense Committee’s resolution itself do not have effect and it is illegal.
Yamaya also lied multiple times about PCK Hapshin. Yamaya said that Hapshin is the second largest denomination in Korea, but it’s lie. The largest denomination in Korea is PCK Hapdong and the second largest is PCK Tonghap. Yamaya said PCK Hapshin held a 67th general assembly in September 20th, but this is also incorrect. It was the 97th general assembly. Yamaya reported that PCK Hapshin made a resolution about the Rev. David Jang, but this is also incorrect. What really happened is PCK Hapshin’s heresy committee submitted a report to defend Pastor Sam-kyung Chae and PCK Hapshin’s Pastor Hyunteck Park, but the report was not accepted in the general assembly. Yamaya lied that there was a resolution about Rev. David Jang as the report did not even mentioned him. Also, PCK Hapshin have withdrawn from CCK but did not become a member of CCIK.
Yamaya also lied that PCK Tonghap is the largest denomination in Korea and said that “PCK Tonghap held a general assembly in September and resolved to re-confirm the past resolution that says ‘Pastor Chae’s theory of Jesus birth through Mary’s menstrual blood is not heresy,’” but hid the following facts:
In the denomination, in order to pass a bill, submitter of the bill is required to submit it 3 months before the general assembly through the presbytery the person belongs to. However, Sam-kyung Chae did not go through the process. Chae made a resolution of the heresy committee of the denomination that says “Sam-kyung Chae is not heresy” in the emergency meeting of the committee just one week before the general assembly and submitted the result to the general assembly this September. The chair of the committee is Sam-kyung Chae himself.
Illegally formed CCIK’s Orthodox Faith Defense Committee, which includes Tonghap’s Sam-kyung Chae and Hapshin’s Hyunteck Park, claimed that Rev. Jaecheol Hong and Rev. Jayeon Kiel are heretic supporters.
CCK published a statement that says in September 28th, CCK have filed a police report of crimination against 3 pastors of PCK Baeksok, PCK Hapshin, PCK Tonghap that says they committed defamation by insidious attack and libel against CCK with false information.
In Korean Christianity, there is a historic fact that PCK has been divided into PCK Hapdong and PCK Tonghap because PCK Hapdong opposed WCC and PCK Tonghap supported WCC. Currently PCK Tonghap is inviting WCC to hold general assembly in Korea and the largest denomination PCK Hapdong is opposing this. CCK’s current chairperson Rev. Jaecheol Hong belongs to PCK Hapdong.
In the background of the controversy there is a conflict between the groups supporting WCC and the group opposing WCC. On September 25th, Rev. David Yonggi Cho of Yoido Full Gospel Church published his statement of faith as a newspaper advertisement on a major Korean newspapers such as Dong-A Ilbo and JoongAng Ilbo that says “I oppose WCC that is religious pluralism and supports homosexuality.” In response to this statement of faith, Rev. Jaecheol Hong published a statement in CCK’s website to welcome Rev. Cho’s statement and opposed WCC as well. In the statement, Rev. Hong by name called PCK Tonghap as the denomination that supports WCC.
In PCK Tonghap, Sam-kyung Chae is individually working and some pastors in the denomination are openly opposing him. In PCK Koshin, there is a self-proclaimed heresy detector working under Sam-kyung Chae, belonging to Chae’s group. The group calls itself the “Gang of Four”.
On September 28th, Yamaya openly proclaimed that he supports Sam-kyung Chae’s theory of Jesus birth through Mary’s menstrual blood, which means Yamaya, in turn, admits that he is a heretic.

Read Yamaya’s spiritual journey in his website
Yamaya’s homepage at:
http://www.geocities.jp/captain_makoto_yamaya/doc5-profile.html
In his website, Yamaya says he is still influenced by the occult and spiritual beliefs. Yamaya must answer whether he is still embracing this kind of belief, or if he is born again as a Christian.
What does this cover image of the homepage mean? Is Yamaya still attracted and influenced by occult beliefs? Look at the magician picture and writing posted on Yamaya’s website.
One day, as usual, after 9pm I was listening a Christian radio broadcasting named FEBC (radio frequency 1566 kHz). I heard horrendous words of animosity, hatred and profanation towards worship songs, sermons and disc jockey of the radio program. Of course I heard it as my voice of my heart. I even felt they were horrifyingly evil words. By intuition, I felt there is some existence right beside me (invisible someone) radiating hatred.
After that experience, suddenly the existence of Satan which before I symbolically saw as an concept counterpoising against God in the world of occult became reality to me. In the world of occult, it was always emphasized that though God and Satan are opposing poles in the phenomenal world, however in reality they are identical and nothing but two sides of a coin. (18) … So fusion and union of God and Satan is the ultimate goal for us. It was this kind of thesis.]
It’s hard to see this as Christian. We will need to focus on his mental condition. Yamaya changed the target every several years and attacked Christian pastors for a decade. What is the reason for this?
Why does Yamaya continue with these bizarre cyber-terrors?
Yamaya had attacked the evangelicals and foreign missionaries in Japan who came from overseas. I found out that Yamaya was a notorious cyber-terrorist. I am not the first to call him this. About Yamaya’s past, I will expose more in the future.
Beyond the point I made here, I will be writing about the serious matters behind Yamaya, not only his occult spiritual journey, his working as agent of the competitor of Christian Today, but also his connections to heresy. I will be writing about them one by one.
Lastly, I want to ask to Yamaya this one question: One evangelical pastor in Japan said Yamaya is a cyber-terrorist who hides his name cunningly to attack pastors. Is this person you or not? Just say yes or no.
click above
After hearing Yamaya’s anwer, I will decide what more I will reveal about him. If what is disclosed is true, there is a history of Yamaya attacking evangelical pastors. I will reveal all the attacks and the process.
Secret Doctrine is being taught?
(In response to Yamaya’s blog, “Secret Doctrine of EAPC,” posted on April 19, 2012)
Why would EAPC teach a secret doctrine? Yamaya agitates that there is a secret doctrine using the excerpt from one bizarre note contrived by cutting out front and back parts of the text. It is baseless, not worthy as evidence when even the owner of the note said that he is indignant that Yamaya is misusing the note.
Although it is absurd to call a professor of theology the Second Coming of Christ, Yamaya raised the question. The suspicion was cleared by the Salvation Army in 2007 as shown below.

[Rev. Harushisa Ohta understands that the suspicion whether Christian Today ‘holds faith that believes Rev. David Jang as the Second Coming’ has been cleared up after Christian Today’s confession of faith was presented.
This signature confirms that what is said above is true. June 27, 2007 (Wednesday)
Harushisa Ohta, Yashuhara Chikara]
At some point, Yamaya began to argue that since it’s about Korea, when a decision is made by CCK then he will no longer create agitation. However, when the decision was made by CCK, Yamaya disputed that it is unsatisfactory and asked to go through it over again. Although such ruling should not be repeated, it was done twice and the conclusion was affirmed by CCK. Yamaya should take a look again at the official statement made by CCK and admit that he is making lies and it is defamatory.
In conclusion, this case has ended and Yamaya can no longer legitimately repeat the assertions he is making. CCK has ruled in conference with its pastors and theologians that the suspicion surrounding Dr. Jang and the fabricated documents about him are invalid. It is inappropriate to write a blog about what has already been concluded.
Where did they come from?
(In response to Yamaya’s blog, “Where did they come from?,” April 14, 2012)
The root of EAPC is traced back 100 years ago to the denomination established by the Presbyterian missionaries from America who came to Korea. The seed of the Gospel planted in Korea grew and a denomination was formed; this year is the 100th anniversary. From the denomination, the members who immigrated to America formed EAPC in America. One of them is called The Emmanuel Evangelical Foundation Worldwide, a legal entity which was incorporated in 1982 in USA. The Los Angeles Presbyterian assembly was formed in 1992.
But why does Yamaya do such random things? Yamaya already knows where EAPC is. He can just look it up in the CCK website (www.cck.or.kr).
What he does is typical of cyber-terrorists. That is, he sends letters to places like PCUSA, PCA, OPC and CPC and gets a letter that they never endorsed EAPC, and spreads the false rumor that EAPC is groundless. He sends the inquiry to irrelevant places, gets misleading information, such as that EAPC does not exist, and then spreads the false information. This is the kind of tactic he engaged in for more than 20 years.
Yamaya did the same thing in the past. When Dr. Jang was a theology professor of SCCSC, Yamaya distributed false report that Dr. Jang is not a professor of SCCSC based on an inquiry he made to a wrong place, and his lie was revealed with official documents such as the certificate of appointment as professor.

Hong Kong Incident influenced by Yamaya source found guilty in criminal court
“Davidian,” “Second Coming of Christ” slandering convicted of defamation
(In response to Yamaya’s blog, “Statement by Rev. Dr. Thomas Wong,” on April13, 2012)
What happened in Hong Kong began when Rev. Dr. Thomas Wang (not Wong, Yamaya check the names before using them) was drawn by the material made up by Yamaya. Later, the Christian Today in Korea filed defamation lawsuit and a judgment of conviction was made at the court in Korea. The slander that Dr. Jang gives false teachings related to the Second Coming has been convicted guilty after trial.
So Yamaya’s fabricated material was sent to Hong Kong and the false information was distributed in around 6,000 copies. The one who was tangled into Yamaya’s plot was convicted. Yamaya was the abettor of the guilty.
The issue in Hong Kong has already received a judgment so the case is closed. Posting something like Dr. Wang’s statement again now and making it appear it is relevant somehow is inappropriate.
Here is an excerpt from the court verdict.
Taken from Court Verdict (July 9, 2009)
[The defendant has...posted and distributed to readers around 6,000 copies of content including “David Jae Hyung Jang’s organization ‘Young Disciples,’ ‘Gospel Herald’ (Christian Daily), ‘Christian Today’, ‘Olivet University’ are one body in terms by sharing people and resources,” and “Young Disciples follows the heretic doctrine that the leader pastor is the Second Coming” so “we express serious interest and concern over the result of the investigation that could not eliminate the high possibility of it being cult”… the defendant told false information and is hereby convicted of defamation against the plaintiff.]
The Christian Today won the defamation/libel trial at criminal court and it was ruled the same in the higher and supreme courts. The defendant was accused of two things. One is that grouping the various organizations as one, calling it Davidian, is defamation. Each organization is separate legal entities, so it is defamation to say that they are controlled by one person, Dr. Jang. Also, the defendant was found guilty of calling a Christian leader the Second Coming of Christ and cult. I believe that result will be the same for Yamaya’s trial in Japan.
(In response to Yamaya’s blog, “Statement by Rev. Dr. Thomas Wong,” on April13, 2012)
What happened in Hong Kong began when Rev. Dr. Thomas Wang (not Wong, Yamaya check the names before using them) was drawn by the material made up by Yamaya. Later, the Christian Today in Korea filed defamation lawsuit and a judgment of conviction was made at the court in Korea. The slander that Dr. Jang gives false teachings related to the Second Coming has been convicted guilty after trial.
So Yamaya’s fabricated material was sent to Hong Kong and the false information was distributed in around 6,000 copies. The one who was tangled into Yamaya’s plot was convicted. Yamaya was the abettor of the guilty.
The issue in Hong Kong has already received a judgment so the case is closed. Posting something like Dr. Wang’s statement again now and making it appear it is relevant somehow is inappropriate.

He taught Unification Theology in 1992? Absolutely no.
(In response to Yamaya’s blog:
1.“ACM is renamed as AM,” on April 13, 2012
2.“How a Methodist Seminary was converted to Sun Moon University?,” April 13, 2012
“1992 – The year everything started,” April 15, 2012)
1. Yamaya is making a number of critical lies here. Because Yamaya wants to link year 1992 to the Unification Church, he says Dr. Jang taught Unification Theology at the Sun Moon University in 1992. Yamaya shows a university handbook as evidence. However, it is completely a fake document. Here are reasons why it is a fabrication:
1.1. In his blog, Yamaya explains the same handbook as taken from Sung Haw Seminary’s 1989 handbook. This is the proof. However, this time, Yamaya describes the same handbook as taken from Sun Moon University in 1992. What he writes in English is different from his Japanese blog. He is deceiving the American readers who cannot read Japanese.
1.2. Furthermore, Yamaya writes in his blog that Sun Moon University started in 1993. (But Sun Moon University started in 1994.) How can then there is a Sun Moon University handbook in 1992? And how can a handbook even say that a Unification Theology is a subject that is taught?
1.3. In 1992 in Korea, no Christian school was allowed to teach Unification Theology (whether there is such theology is questionable). I have document from the Department of Education that Sung Hwa Seminary was a Christian school.
2. If Dr. Jang helped making Sung Hwa Seminary, which is a healthy Christian school, it is a good thing he did. What is wrong with supporting a Christian seminary? Yamaya, however, remakes the story so it sounds like Dr. Jang helped make Sun Moon University. Yamaya also refers to Shin Shin-mook the Methodist bishop. From what I checked, what Yamaya is trying to say about Shin shin-mook’s opinion of Dr. Jang is different from the truth. Shin Shin-mook is serving as an Editorial Advisor of the evangelical Christian newspaper the Christian Today which is founded by Dr. Jang. Here is the evidence.

3. About Dr. Jang’s resume, Yamaya lays out another strange logic by comparing the resume submitted to CCK and the resume Yamaya made up out of his own imagination. The resume Yamaya created is possible only in Yamaya’s own imagination. Between the resume from CCK and the resume you made up, which one is more trustworthy? I think the resume at CCK, much more. Yamaya should just accept the reality but he attempts to create blemish with fabrications. What really happened is, Dr. Jang taught at the Methodist seminary (not Sun Moon University) in 1992, and then served as the General Secretary of one of the founding denominations of CCK until 1998, and then elected as the denomination’s president. Yamaya, just accept what is true.
Yamaya wants to blemish the year 1992 because that is when Olivet University and the fellowship started. He tries to form connection to Moonies for that year, but it is impossible. Also, what did Yamaya say he believed in 1967? From my research, this is untrue, totally fake.
Yamaya once fabricated Dr. Jang’s birth year. As soon as Yamaya was sued, he quickly corrected it. Most people do not understand why he would do such a thing. He tried to make a plot that there is a “secret doctrine of the number 42.” He either has a malign intention behind fabrications, or he has strange imaginations.
Why would WEA fund Olivet University? Nonsense.
(Response to the blog “WEA to fund Davidian?” posted on April
8, 2012)
There are obvious lies found in the writing. For example, Yamaya
wrote that 20 major denominations protested to and withdrew from CCK and then formed
“Korean Churches Alliance.” However, from what I know, such name does not
exist. A number of denominations in Korea did form CCIK but this is not related
with Dr. Jang. Yamaya must stop lying like this. Also, one of the denominations
withdrew from CCK. CCK still exists and has the same denominations (go to their
website: www.cck.or.kr).
Why is WEA brought into this? Why would WEA fund Olivet
University? Yamaya has wild bouts of imagination and he spreads them as if they
are true. This is typical of cyber-terrorists and agitators who oppose growth
of Evangelical school.
Still Digging?
For the last two years and half, I did not read Yamaya’s blog and I did not have to deal with the issue because it was cleared up already. I took down the past posts because they were not needed anymore. I forgot about them and believed everything has ended. There were many changes over the years. Yamaya's documents were revealed to be fake. And some accusers were found guilty of defamation at the criminal court. Also, one of Yamaya's team was confirmed as heresy with his strange doctrine.
But for some curious reason, I discovered that the former-occult believer Yamaya started to publish the rubbish and false information all over again. Now I feel obligated to speak out. I will clear up all questions raised by Yamaya, and also expose the problems Yamaya has that I did not speak about before.
In the past, Yamaya raised issues regarding Dr. Jang. It was Yamaya’s insistence that the case be decided by the Christian Council of Korea (CCK). After a long period of fact-finding and investigation by CCK, Dr. Jang was cleared of the suspicions connected to the Unification Church and associated with the Second Coming of Christ.
Not only was the case cleared up by CCK, the council made official statements four times (two times about Unification Church and two times about the Second Coming) over the years to affirm that the suspicion is untrue.
Despite the clear conclusion, Yamaya continues the attack by spreading false reports. About the intention of his doing, it had formerly been revealed.
