The third reason of the necessity of knowing the Imam of each era:
"It is a condition of the acceptance of deeds”
Muawiyah ibn Ammar asked Imam Sadiq about this verse “And to Allah belong the best names, so invoke Him by them.” (7:180). The Imam answered:
“I swear to God that we are the Lord’s Good Names so that God does not accept any deed of humans unless they know us.”
Usul al-Kafi, chapter: Al-navader
Indeed,
what kind of knowledge is this? Which is so important? We’ll mention it later.
Seeking the Savior in the Bible
Jesus Christ says about the Apocalypse: “Nations will be at war! Famine, pestilence and earthquakes will occur! People will hate each other! The sun will darken and the moon will have no light!”
Matthew, chapter24, verses 1to6
Whatever is said, this prophecy is much scarier than the terrible flood of Noah and the tale of Lot's folk!!! More importantly, humanity must experience and pass through all these calamities so that it can acquire the "merit" of believing in "the belief of salvation"! It is here that God does not get involved directly in "Saving" but sends his messengers to save the believers! Such as sending Moses, like sending Jesus...
Is it not the time for our "Savior Seeking" to get deeper?
Economy in the time of Reappearance
Imam Baqir (PBUH) said:
“World wealth will be accumulated and will be in the possession of Mahdi (PBUH); the wealth beneath the ground and the wealth on the ground; then he will tell people, “Come and take what you cut the ties for” (i.e. materialism)
“So he will give (everyone) as much wealth that no one before him had not given to another and he provides the earth with utter justice.”
Qeibat Na’mani P. 237
The leaders of the occultation
Imam Hadi(PBUH) said :
In the occultation of our Qa’im, if there weren’t any scholars and sages who invite people to Imam Mahdi or any defenders of the religion or helper to save unable people from evil’s and enemies’ traps, all people would stop following God’s religion and would become a pagan.
Scholars and sages, who save weak and poor Shia Muslims like a captain who guides a ship, are better and beloved ones for God.

This greek text is from one of the old bible
Translation: At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven; and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn (smite the breast) and they shall see the Son of Man coming upon the clouds of the heaven, with power and much glory . Matthew 24:30
Annual people are smiting the breast(slow hit to your chest) in arbaeen (one of the public Religious gatherings that people come from all over the world) and they help together in the way and you see only kindness. Son of man(imam mahdi) will come with jesus christ (son of god in the bible) and they spread justice all over the world .
You can be helper or lover them if you like spreading justice and destroying injustice for ever.
