Made Manifest By Faith

Judas (not Iscariot) said to Him, “Lord, how is it that You will manifest Yourself to us, and not to the world?” John 14:22

Manifest: evident, apparent or clear to the senses. Judas had a good question there since the man had traveled with Jesus for some time and clearly lots of people could see and hear our Lord. So, Judas had to ask, what is this manifesting you speak of? We know it as the time of faith between our Lord's death on the cross and His return, often known as the Second Coming. What is interesting in this is that little word 'in'. The manifesting will not be of the five senses, but a knowledge borne of faith that Jesus is in us by His Holy Spirit. Judas had trouble understanding because it was a new way of manifesting; one done by faith and not by seeing. The world by unbelief will not know Him.

By faith in Him!
