Please participate in my experiment. Thank you

Please participate in my experiment. Thank you
1 John 4:1-3 (NKJV) states “Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and now already is in the world”

My God gave me a key to discern truth from fiction. I believe it to be true.

Hypothesis:
No professing atheist can confess there is no God; followed by the statement “Jesus Christ walked the earth, and is the Son of God”.

Participants: Anyone

Observations measured by responses. Affirmative responses will have only two statements, the confession of the lack of a creator God, followed by the ‘test of the spirits’ statement above. [/b]

My God says it is impossible to say those two statements in succession, I beg you to prove me wrong. If you could say them in vain, I invite you to do so.

If my God's promises are solid and unbreakable, I will not get one statement like the one I mentioned above. Giving me only a more solid foundation in His existence. I suspect I will get much criticism for this, and you will say anything BUT what I ask of you. My God has promised me confessing that statement is beyond impossible. You could easily prove me and my bible wrong if it were not an impossible statement to make. I doubt anyone will.
Thank you for your participation.

I will let this brew for a bit and only reply with tally points or to clarify my original request.
*Statements made in vain would count, if you could make them. I am going into this with the presumption most of you are atheist. I was looking for many atheists to participate in this challenge and was referred here.
* I understand the two statements contradict each other and one of them has to be false. My point is, my God says, it is not humanly possible to confess those two statements in succession. If you do, you will not be called a liar. I will admit defeat.

Please don't do this again as it is tantamount to preaching, very silly and will only invoke a negative and derisory response!

Who cares if Jesus walked the earth, because if he did, he certainly was nothing more than a common man. And I do confess that I don't know there is no god. I do, however, know that your god doesn't exist.

If that's the score, I guess I don't understand what you are trying to say here.

I think he's saying that, unless you answer in a very specific way, that you automatically vote for God :S There's theist logic for you..
