Why is the concept of Christ's manifestation important for Christians?

Answered in 1 source

The manifestation of Christ's presence is vital for Christians as it fosters intimacy and communion with Him, essential for spiritual growth.

The manifestation of Christ's presence signifies His ongoing relationship with believers, allowing them to experience His love more deeply. When Christ withdraws His manifest presence, believers often feel a sense of longing or 'love-sickness,' which serves as a reminder of their need for Him. Scriptures like Ephesians 3:19 emphasize the importance of knowing the love of Christ, which is foundational for spiritual growth. Thus, the longing for His presence leads to deeper affection, reliance, and joy in the believer's spiritual journey.
