Why should Christians seek a relationship with Christ rather than signs and wonders?

Answered in 1 source

Christians should seek a relationship with Christ as He is the ultimate miracle and source of salvation, not merely the signs He performs.

The relationship with Christ is paramount for Christians because He embodies the miracle of salvation and grace. In Luke 23, Herod was seeking a miracle instead of recognizing that Jesus Himself was the miracle he longed to see. This reflects the tendency of humans to desire signs rather than the true essence of faith, which is found in a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. By prioritizing Christ over signs and wonders, believers embrace the profound truth that all salvation, mercy, and grace are found in Him alone. Both personal communion with Jesus and understanding His work are essential for spiritual growth, as believers are called not to seek extraordinary experiences but to cultivate a deep-rooted faith that honors and glorifies Him. Ultimately, it is Christ Himself who is the miracle that changes lives.
