AKA "Why don't we all see angels?"
Because the purpose of Christian life is personal spiritual progress (theosis) God desires that we seek the good on our own. Personal revelation is often subtle, or limited, because it is enough to provide us answers and leads us on in the right direction. If God were to each and individually make an overt revelation it would: 1) Increase our personal risk of rejecting Christ's salvation, and 2) Potentially limit our theosis. 3) Finally, it may simply be too bright for some of us to see - it's possible we would be blinded even in the face of a large miraculous revelation.
