Would an atheist convert to Christianity for $1,000,000? Perhaps $2,000,000? Would he repent of his sins and profess Christ for a Bentley or Rolls Royce car? Or how about a Rolex or Breitling watch? Or would an atheists become a faithful adherent of God for his own private island in the Caribbean, complete with a mansion and private yacht?
The truth is that atheists wouldn’t become a Christian for any of those things. Maybe they want evidence for God’s existence, but enough of that exists through the testimonies of millions of believers. So really, what would make them believe?
Consider: To be a Christian requires a degree of humility: We must accept the fact that we are sinners and therefore embrace Christ as redeemer and savior. Many nonbelievers misperceive repentance as some sort of gaslighting and don’t want to do it. Thus, it’s not that atheists disbelieve due to a lack of evidence (there is actually an abundance of evidence for God’s existence); it’s that they don’t like being told to reject sin.
So to answer the question: An atheist will become a Christian once he quits being in love with his sin, repents of his sins, realizing that someone can only do so through faith in Christ, and then become a Christian.
