Yes and they didn’t get any sign and Jesus went away
“The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven. He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red. And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowring. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times? A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas. And he left them, and departed.”
Matthew 16:1-4 KJV
but those who just followed after Jesus saw miraculous signs like this nonone was demanding a sign but look what happens
“And Jesus, when he came out, saw much people, and was moved with compassion toward them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd: and he began to teach them many things. And when the day was now far spent, his disciples came unto him, and said, This is a desert place, and now the time is far passed: send them away, that they may go into the country round about, and into the villages, and buy themselves bread: for they have nothing to eat. He answered and said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they say unto him, Shall we go and buy two hundred pennyworth of bread, and give them to eat? He saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? go and see. And when they knew, they say, Five, and two fishes. And he commanded them to make all sit down by companies upon the green grass. And they sat down in ranks, by hundreds, and by fifties. And when he had taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and brake the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before them; and the two fishes divided he among them all. And they did all eat, and were filled. And they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments, and of the fishes. And they that did eat of the loaves were about five thousand men.”
Mark 6:34-44 KJV
that’s all I was getting at demanding signs from God is just a lack of faith trusting him anyways and following after him is going to always lead to experiencing wonderful things from the lord
Just making a simple point of we follow Jesus we’ll see things if we doubt and demand signs I’m not too sure

Like government agents? Spies? Will He actually need any since He is God? I was thinking more about whether He would personally want to join a forum just because it's something He wants to do personally for fun and not for government or official work.
Either way, He will know when someone is lying and being fake. Everything will be so different then. People won't be able to hide behind an anonymous façade even on a forum. Heck, Jesus isn't fooled now, lol! It's just that right now, we can't see Him in the flesh. And just because He can't be seen, a lot of people don't take Him seriously about what He knows about them and what is in their hearts. That's why things get so heated on BDF. People aren't careful!

But why would He need humans spies watching some forum??? Couldn't His angels do that for Him? They'll still be with Him then. Aren't they doing that right now?
I would think He would give us tasks like overseeing the clean-up and redevelopment of all the cities that got bombed during the last days. Not sitting hunched over a computer reading forum posts.....

But if we're reigning with the Lord Jesus, we won't have any time or duty to spy on people writing posts on an internet forum. It's a frivolous task considering that God is omniscient. Just look at all the prophecies in the Bible - proof that God doesn't need us spying on people needlessly. He already knows what is in all of our hearts.
I think our main job as those reigning with Christ is to rebuild all the towns and cities that got wrecked and to teach the surviving mortals about God and His ways so that they can make an informed choice to follow Him (or not). So reigning with God is not about doing frivolous tasks for God when there are so many more important things that God wants us to do.

I'm really excited though that Jesus returns! The way we do things will be vastly different under the Lord's direct governance. He will rule with a rod of iron so that anyone's ungodly schemes won't get too far. I'm thinking of what the globalists and lgbtq+ are pushing right now - imagine all of that exposed and destroyed! If anything, regarding to the topic at hand, all the people who sign up for this forum at that time who aren't Christian but just pretending to be one to push their evil agenda will be exposed and punished. They are going to be so mad and frustrated, lol!

His "handle" is the "handle" of those here who are truly His children. Does the Holy Spirit not indwell with the sanctified believer? Who is the Holy Spirit? God is here, there, everydarnwhere! There is nothing said, typed or occurred that God does not know about. There is nothing said, typed, or thought that God does not know about.
Yeah, He's here. The question should be: Is God pleased with what He reads here?
