I'm sorry friend, but the answers that you are giving are not logically consistent. No one KNOWS that God exists. Saying you believe he exists and is real is far different from claiming to know. You are making a non falsifiable claim. It is precisely arguments like these from most theists that turn atheists away. It shows arrogance and nothing else. Also how is telling people they will see when they get to Hell constructive? If you are a true Bible believer you need to open the book back up and read some more.
I'm sorry you don't know God, you have no idea what you're missing, a relationship with Him is like none other and you can't have a relationship with something that might be. I'm as sure God is real as I'm alive, tell me how is it you can believe Jesus is real if you do not know God is real. I haven't turned an atheist away yet they were here when I got here and they just keep coming here spreading their tripe, there are a few here who have respect for the debate and try to have descent conversations. Seems to me the arrogance is your's, you're the one who insist I do not know for certain God is real. It seems to me you are confused what you're to have faith in, it's not God, it's what He has promised. You need to remember that God said that no one will have an excuse for not knowing Him, these are God's words not mine, could be it's you who need to search the scriptures and find the reality of knowing God. Paul tells us several times in the NT we can know God, so you tell me how can you possibly know God if you are not sure He exists?

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
