Working for Love? Which Judas? (Jn 14:21-22; John study 107)

Jesus says whoever loves him and keeps his commands (to love our neighbours) will be loved by God the Father. People could be misled by this statement into thinking that we need to do good works in order to maintain our salvation in God. However, when we explore what Jesus says in John 15:12-14 and what John explains in 1 John 4:10-11, we see that it is only by the love of the Father that we have the love of Christ crucified which enables us to love Him and do good works. We love because God loves us; we don't have to work for it.
Judas not Iscariot now asks a question. Who is this? This is the only time he is mentioned outside of the lists of the Twelve Disciples and, even in those lists, he does not go by the same name. He is also known as Thaddeus, but may not commonly be called Judas to avoid confusion with Judas Iscariot, the Betrayer.
Why does Jesus manifest himself to the disciples and not to the world? His followers are the ones who can identify him as the one who died on the cross and thus as the one who God raised from the dead for our salvation. When people see Jesus in dreams and visions after his Ascension, he usually appears to point them to sacramental Christian churches, even today.
