Send Jesus back to earth. Have him perform the exact same miracles he did before, but under controlled conditions and modern scientific observation and testing. If he were to repeat his earlier performance and walk on water, control the weather, wither a fig tree, turn water into wine, bring corpses back to life, heal various diseases and disabilities, feed multitudes with a small basket of groceries, ascend bodily into heaven, etc. I would certainly be convinced. He could skip any miracles that are cruel, like casting demons into pigs and making them run off a cliff, and there's no need for a replay of the crucifixion and resurrection - the above miracles would be more than adequate.
If it was good for the people 2000 years ago to see him perform undeniable miracles in front of their eyes, why isn't it good now?
