It would need to act in a way that is distinguishable with its non-existence so that it can't be equated with humans making stuff up. Basically, non-inferentially justified evidence would be nice, instead of the tired old "surrender yourself to Christ, and then he will show himself" which requires us to presuppose a particular god for no apparent reason before we have the credible experience that suggests this god even exists in the first place.
