IF god wants to save us, why has he allowed the truth of his word to be so uncertain? [Spirituality & Religion]

Why not make himself known to us so that we might choose to follow him or deny him?
Not guess whether he exists or not but KNOW and make our decision from there.

He already did make himself known to us. Some did choose to follow him. Most didn’t. He got tired of proving himself to us only to be denied by us again and again and again. Why wouldn’t he stop. You request a miracle now? Why should he show you now after sending his son? They didn’t believe him. Very few will follow him and now only through faith will they believe. Those who believe also believe through blessings. He has provided a path for us to believe and be born again. No miraculous proof will be shown again until Christ returns. Then everyone will believe.

Sorry, you think that showing himself to a some bronze age herdsman before the age of mass communication was the BEST god could do to convince as many people as possible that he existed?

lol weak, dude. A transparent excuse.

Are you saying that even if god wanted to, he could not make his existence known UNEQUIVOCALLY to the world?

Hmm. Maybe not such an impressive god after all, yeah?😏
@gregloa Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?
Are you fimilar with this quote by Epicurus?
