Most people who say they are Christians do not love Christ, they love their traditional cultural Christianity based on a mix of the Bible with a heavy sprinkling of paganism and humanism.
A clue that someone may not be saved is their defensiveness of concepts and principles that are not Biblical but are based on psychology as well as humanism.
Psychology and humanism is based on Darwinism, that people are nothing more than animals that evolved from nothingness.
Atheists are not those who don't believe in God, they are those who deny Him. They know there is an all-powerful God but in their rebellion they dismiss Him.
Those who minimize the Word of God in favor of their own desires cannot be born again. Those who removed passages from their context and adamantly defend them cannot be born of God, these are those who pretend to have a form of religion but deny the True God. 2 Timothy 3:5
John 12:48 "The one who rejects me and does not receive my words has a judge; the word that I have spoken will judge him on the last day.
Matthew 10:33
"But whoever denies me before men, I also will deny before my Father who is in heaven."
1 John 2:22
"Who is the liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, he who denies the Father and the Son."
Atheists do believe in God and hate Him. They know God created the world and everything in it but refuse to give Him the honor and credit for it.
Those who know Christ, in whom Christ lives not only admit He exists but love Him above all others. They hear His voice and follow Him.
John 10:27-28
"27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand."
