That's nice, and if a god appeared to me, your god, I still wouldn't be a christian. The existence of a god is not a belief or practice that unites me into your moral whole.
You might have noticed that other people who believe in gods are not members of your religion..some of them believe in the same gods, even, and aren't a member of your religion.
Do you understand why a thing defined by it's effect of uniting people into a moral whole cannot avoid making normative statements?

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
