What is the question that he wants us to come up with?
Doesn't belong in the list because you are assuming god exists to even make a list that questions why he has not revealed himself.
If so then he has been revealed in us.

We are too simple minded to understand the complexities of him.

We are very much able to understand the complexities - we just are too brain washed into our ego.

He believes that he will not fulfill our expectations.

Not showing up because he is less than what we have made him to be sounds like a circular argument and our own doing, not his.

He thinks we aren’t ready yet.

Same as too simple minded

He already has through the bible.

The bible is text not god.

He has encoded a message for us somewhere in the world, and it is up to scientists or scholars to find that message.

Science or decompsoing the world into parts will not find the whole.

He, like us, is finite and has died.

Then he is not god if he died.

He is waiting until we “cross-over.”

When we cross over we will know more about the spirit world all off a sudden, but we still may not see god - I don't think god is waiting for us like that. We can look for him now or after we die.

He believes the truth will be too much for us to handle.

He is trying to get us to prove our faith.

That's an interesting one. Proving faith. God wants us to have faith in him, so he doesn't show himself. I guess if he showed himself explicitly and very concretly, we wouldn't need faith - it would be a fact.
hehe
God doesn't reveal himself because he already has through Jesus.
God doesn't reveal himself because we aren't looking in the right places for him.
