They are like the apostle Thomas who did not believe Christ rose from the dead until he actually saw him.
John 20:24-30
24Now Thomas (called Didymus), one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came.
25 So the other disciples told him, "We have seen the Lord!" But he said to them, "Unless I see the nail marks in his hands and put my finger where the nails were, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe it."
26 A week later his disciples were in the house again, and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, "Peace be with you!"
27 Then he said to Thomas, "Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe."
28 Thomas said to him, "My Lord and my God!"
29 Then Jesus told him, "Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed."
30Jesus did many other miraculous signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not recorded in this book. 31But these are written that you may[a] believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.
John 14:6
Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
2Peter 2:4-10
4For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell,[a] putting them into gloomy dungeons[b] to be held for judgment; 5if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others; 6if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly; 7and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men 8(for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)— 9if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment.[c] 10This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the sinful nature[d] and despise authority.

Just because people don't believe in God does not mean they will go to hell. People change!

Let me rephrase. Some people do not believe in God becasue they need to see or touch something tangible, for them they cannot see or touch God so they cannot believe in him, they most likely end up believing in the power of self, becasue this concept they can understand.

Jesus (GOD) is the Only One Who can Recreate your Spirit for you.
Religion cannot do it.
Jesus has to have your Permission to Save you.
If you don't think HE exists, how can you give Jesus Permission?
(GOD don't go against your Free-Will)

Jesus wants everyone to know Him and have eternal life. John 3:16 tells us that. God gives us free will to accept or reject His Son. rejecting Jesus is the way to not see heaven. so accept His son as your savior and live forever with Him in heaven.
