rjh4 you are making all these truth claims from the bible, be careful! It sounds like preaching to me and you could get in trouble for that here. Secondly, I am surprised that everyone else here has been drawn into your so called claim of evidence when the onus is actually on you the believer making these claims to prove to us that what you claim is true. That being the case you have not proven anything based on what I have read so far.
"God creates the universe and all that is in it and tells us (reveals to us) that He did it and provides enough specifics in history to determine approximately when this happened."
First prove to us that God exists. Then share with us some specifics as to how he has revealed that he has created all things in the universe, and don't forget some of those "specifics in history" you claim to know of.
"God has already done that through the Bible which indicates some of the things that happened in the past, e.g., God created the universe, man sinned and the consequence was a fallen man and universe, there was a global flood, Jesus came into the world to live a perfect life and then to take the punishment that man deserved because of his (man’s) sin, and then rose from the dead."
Once again, prove it!! First start by showing me how the bible is the word of god beyond a shadow of a doubt, that Jesus was the son of god and that he actually existed, and most importantly to your faith that he rose from the dead. You are aware that as atheists the bible has no authority nor validity in our worldview? The bible is nothing more than a book of myths and legends created by man and nothing more. For us to believe anything the bible says we would have to abandon our abilities of logic and reason over the inferior beliefs you foster through faith.

There is nothing people will not maintain when they are slaves to superstition
