... but refusing to reveal himself in a way that would make us all believe that he exists?

Because it’s supposed to be a “test”. Only those who will believe without proof (i.e. those who have faith) are worthy of “saving”. Demanding proof is arrogance and proof itself that you’re not worth saving.
1) Where does it say in the bible that belief without knowing is more important to god than saving people? 2) Who's demanding anything? It's not a demand, it's a deficiency. I can't choose to believe in god any more than you can choose to believe in Santa. I cannot decide to be convinced by that which i find unconvincing. God would know that. God would know that millions of people like me exist. God would know that billions more would be convinced by the existence of other gods.
So the question remains: If god wants to save us, why not show us he's real so we can come to him?
@SW-User [quote]Demanding proof is arrogance[/quote] Since when? So if one uses their brain to investigate before they believe, they are arrogant? Well, sorry, but I am an auditor! I don't believe, until I see "sufficient and appropriate evidence".
