1:16 Although these workings that I reveal may seem wondrous, there is no way for you to know now or any time soon what other kind of miraculous workings I may reveal. When the time comes for Me to finally show these miraculous workings, no matter who you are, all of you will be convinced, saying, “Yes, I see, Oyagami’s workings are truly wondrous!”

『おふでさき註釈』、p. 7

一六、このようにして現れる親神の働きは霊妙なものであるが、それでは、如何なる不思議が現れるかという事は、今すぐには人間に分からない。親神がいよいよ不思議な働きを見せるかという事は、今すぐには人間に分からない。親神がいよいよ不思議な働きを見せる日が来るならば、成程親神の働きは霊妙なものであるという事が確かに分かる。

Commentary by Yoshitaro Ueda (2008)

From Michi no dai: Foundation of the Path 32:36

1:16 The meaning of the verse is that, although God is speaking of the Teodori as the sign for miraculous things, no such thing is yet in sight and that when “the day”—the day when miraculous things are to appear with the Teodori providing the sign—arrives, we will certainly understand what God is saying.
