Yet, in modern times, when things are testable, all god is capable of doing is periodically appearing on toasted sandwiches and glass panes.
If he was all powerful all he'd have to do is make a personal appearance and there would be NO doubt.

then god in the modern times is irrelevant and jaded and unneeded because we are already more moral than a creator if he exists.
because he made no attempt to make a updated document for the age of reasoning.

Because God decided faith was an absolute requirement in His kingdom:
"But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is"
Hebrews 11:6 KJV
Actually, Jesus is apparently frustrated with those who desire the type of "sign" you suggest:
"And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and saith, Why doth this generation seek after a sign? verily I say unto you, There shall no sign be given unto this generation."
Mark 8:12 KJV

But apparently that's not working on you? The superiority complex thing, I mean.

What an ass. Jesus did miracles that have proof to his followers
Why don't we get the same consideration?

Quote:OT was a Jew law and does not apply to Christ believers anymore.
You know, the fuckers called Marcion a heretic for holding the same views as you.
They'd have killed him if they could have gotten a hold of him.
Even these assholes know that.
http://www.bible.ca/b-canon-canon-of-marcion.htm
Quote:Marcion believed that the God of the Old Testament was an evil creator god that Jesus came to destroy.
Marcion believed that this evil god did in fact reveal his will through the Old Testament. Thus he believed in the "inspiration" of the Old Testament from divine sources, although from an evil source.

Yet, according to the OT, people couldn't walk out their front doors without some sign from "god".
Guess his power is diminishing as human ignorance increases.
