There are those like Hindus who believe in many gods so God's announcement will be a message from just another god. The Israelites who had an experience of God talking to them so often defied him and followed foreign gods, so it is not a guarantee that hearing God making an announcement in the sky will make everybody believe in the same one God and throw away everything else.

Even in Hinduism there is, "The God", as in the highest, or Most High.
Properly, Hinduism is pantheism, not paganism.
The lessor gods are expressions of the Most High.
I've offered the definition of "Gestalt" for your question.
