That didn't work with Jesus both because He managed to not let people kill Him until He was ready and then because He rose from the dead.

This is true for many people but not all. If you met me you would have an opportunity to meet God.

And where did Jesus say that?

I am not a genocidal maniac.
It takes really disturbed thinking to perceive God in this way.

Only God exist, nothing else but God exist so why would God need to be someelse or one of us?

Just to let you know.
YajurVeda 40.17
17.I am the light of knowledge, The Spirit yonder brighter then the Sun, the Spirit dwelling there am I. OM is my name.

If someone came up to me and said they were God, I would believe them ... lets take a lil walk on the water bud. Because you never know

I think I remember something to that extent although I don't remember 'Om" being represented as a name. Could it be a matter of translation because "yonder" sure looks like a suspicious translation.
I could use a little context on that as well. He just pops out saying something in the middle of a text?

I haven't seen it but after reading about it in Wikipedia, I can only speculate that it is far from reality. It probably is a lot more fun than the reality.

How is yonder suspicious?
No this is not the middle, this is the Last Mantra of the Yajur Veda.
Its a common belief that OM is the first and highest name of the supreme being, among Hindus.

Throughout history, many "Prophets" have spoken with spirits thinking they are a God (or God's Rep). This is the basis for most of the religions in the world. (and the others are generally money making scams.)
I would not believe a person claiming to be God as such a thing doesn't exist (in my opinion, so that makes it pretty easy). However, if a spirit was to appear before me and was able to communicate, I would listen... (not always believe them as some lie like rugs).

How then does one know whether the spirit a person has spoken to is God? Are you saying that thier descriptions of God would help you recognize Him?
How did you reach this opinion?
I would agree with that.
