What does manifest mean?
John 14:21 says He who has My commandments and keep them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, I will love him and manifest Myself to him."
Will Jesus reveal Himsef as the Father to us? He has to me!

This questioner perhaps unintentionally alludes to a remarkable point...
...Jesus did not refer to the heavenly hope for humans until the day before he was impaled. The fullest application of John 14:21 occurs in heaven, to those blessed with a heavenly resurrection.
(John 14:21-23) He [here among my closest associates] that has my commandments and observes them, that one is he who loves me. In turn he that loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and will plainly show myself to him... If anyone loves me, he will observe my word, and my Father will love him, and we shall come to him and make our abode with him.
(John 15:15) I no longer call you slaves, because a slave does not know what his master does. But I have called you friends, because all the things I have heard from my Father I have made known to you.
(John 16:27) For the Father himself has affection for you, because you have had affection for me and have believed that I came out as the Father’s representative.
(John 17:22) Also, I have given them the glory that you have given me, in order that they may be one just as we are one.
(Hebrews 3:1) Consequently, holy brothers, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the apostle and high priest whom we confess—Jesus.
(1 John 3:2) Beloved ones, now we are children of God, but as yet it has not been made manifest what we shall be. We do know that whenever he is made manifest we shall be like him, because we shall see him just as he is.

Someone's always gotta come up with a smart remark, eh?
God bless them. (as the Bible, God's Holy Word, teaches us to love our enemies!)
Manifestation in the Bible usually describes the Holy Spirit. I haven't looked that one up, but it is a GOOD question!
I hope to find the truth for you and me. May the Lord reveal Himself through the Holy Spirit. Amen.
P.S. Did you know Amen is from the book of Revelations? It means Jesus. So, we are basically saying "in Jesus' name," when we say Amen. So, may God bless you. Amen.

If you are a true "Prophet" you must declare this not here but verbally at every opportunity and be willing to die for this dream. You must restore the "Church" the way it is suppose to be. You must preach the "Gospel" and continue to receive revelations, which need be written down. You must be willing to take criticism from all sides and never cave, especially over you "revelations", which must fit right with the gospel. And of course to have received these dreams, you must be living a very righteous life, you must already have read the bible and understand much of it.

He will reveal Himself to me by keeping His promises to me. He is the God-Man. He has already revealed the Father to us; that is why He said to Philip, " If you have seen me you have seen the Father.
