Good question...
You would think he would just appear to them as he did in the early Bible or as Jesus did after his resurrection. Why not now?

That's why its called 'faith' - the believing in works without seeing. I don't have to see God to know that he exists. I feel his miracles every day. I know that he is the one that's helping my brother survive being in Iraq, I know that he was the one who saved my aunt from breast cancer.
Now to your question. God can't MAKE persons believe or just magically change their minds. That's where we Christians come in. Its our job to try to convert non-believers by making them see the great impact that God has had on their lives. If you don't believe then that's your choice - God allows you the freedom to believe or not. He knew that there would be many non - believers and when he comes their still will be many. But their will be believers as well. Its all up to you.
May continue to God bless and keep, like he has been doing all these years :)

He is, Mathew 24:14 says this Good news of the Kingdom will be preached throughout the inhabitant earth for a witness and then the end will come.
As free moral agents, they have the right to refuse to listen.

I don't think they would believe him. Once God has made his existence clear then it's up to man to believe. The only unforgivable sin is unbelief. God won't force people to choose to believe. It's a choice that a free willed person can make and when it's over there won't be anyone that could look at God and tell him that he didn't show that person, in a way that that person could understand, that he exists.

"For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that THEY ARE WITHOUT EXCUSE. because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were they thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing themselves wise, they became fools and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man -and birds and four-footed beasts and creeping things" -Romans 1: 18-23. God does not send anyone into the eternal torments of hell. All who go do so of their own free will. God has given us the only way out of that condemnation -Jesus Christ.

The fool hath said in his heart there is no God... Psalm 14:1.
God sent His Son, His Word, and all of the natural creation. It seems you are struggling and are uncomfortable with your unbelief. Maybe the problem is not that God has not revealed Himself (you do know something about Him) it's more that He hasn't revealed Himself to you in just the way you want. I don't think that's very good evidence that He doesn't exist.

the believers are the ones with the problem .they have been brainwashed for centuries by the illuminati the descendents of an Anunaki an extraterestrial,not a god
Many other people know the truth and are saved .
the believers are hopelessly adicted to lies that control them ,they are the ones that need saving,not us.
Hell was a concept that was added in the middle ages to frighten ignorent people ,what is much more frightening is that so many still believe in this today.

u r sadly mistaken my friend. He helps u in many ways. the people that die and go to hell has nothing to do with moral things or how great u r or watever. it all depends on if u believe that Jesus is God's only begotten Son and he came to die on this earth for u and me. and yes i said u. im sorry u hav such a hatred towards God. i wish i could help u more but the rest is up to u and God. i dont kno who u are but i dont ever want u to go to hell. i'd rather see u in heaven with me. May God be with you always, my friend.

Its called free-will. God cannot force you to believe or disbelieve what you wish. The only reason you don't see any evidence is because you aren't seeking for it. The evidence is all around you.

Since man created god in his own image, it is an illusion- and he greatest hoax in history. In so doing, man defined himself as the chosen creature on earth, and put himself in a position of righteousness, empowered to do all kinds of evil things in the name of god, and manipulate the masses with promises of supernatural favor and life after death. The real higher power does not fit the definition of a god. That is a usurpation, the device of evil men.
