Why is faith in Christ essential for meeting God?

Answered in 1 source

Faith in Christ is essential as it grants us righteousness and prepares us for a meeting with God in peace.

Faith in Christ alone provides the means by which we can be justified before God. In Ezekiel 16, God emphasizes how His grace and mercy freely justifies us, making us prepared to meet Him. The New Testament underscores that it is through Christ's finished work that believers are made complete and righteous in God's sight (2 Corinthians 5:21). Without this faith, individuals stand before God in their sin, lacking the necessary righteousness to endure His holiness. Therefore, embracing Christ is the only way to confidently face this divine appointment.
