Think about God in a more reasonable sense if you compare god to a mere mortal I have seen people that surpass the biblical god in virtue a million times over. Let's take an example from the christian community there is an hispanic evangelist by the name of Yiye Avila. He is of the fundamental kind but years ago a man murdered his daughter. He forgave him for that and actually went to the prison to pray for him and tell him face to face that he forgave him in the name of Christ. And then he maintained contact with him through letters and the occasional visit.
Your biblical god seems to have a problem with forgiveness, this is a little hard to believe considering that he is "omnipotent". He could have simply forgiven mankind and there would then be no need for him to sacrifice his son for all of humanity at all.
Hebrews 9:22
22.And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.
He could have changed this silly rule and just forgiven mankind so this whole redemption story from a rational standpoint makes no sense at all. The bible has more holes than any store bought strainer.
I am proud of knowing Bart Ehrman he is one of the few that actually woke up to the reality that the bible is basically a book of myths. He is a true scholar that did not let his initial religious beliefs cloud his judgment.
How do I know Jesus is not coming back? When you read the resurrection story in the gospels they are all contradictory to each other. I know he is not coming back because no one has ever come back from the dead after being dead for three days which when you do the math from the death to the resurrection it's not even three days.

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