So what is this God and what do we gain by believing in it as opposed to living a purely secular life? Atheists won't react well to threats of being tortured forever after they die seeing as they don't believe in this God to begin with and Pascals Wager won't work. A description of what God is and what he does, how he would relevant to life would be better than just saying he's beyond everything. Even if you can build a compelling argument in favour of belief in God atheists are evidence orientated, they want something they can see.
