Atheist logic: A dog is a good boy yet has no god.

Christian response…

“Many” “good” people will live-out their life in the Realm of Time and die in their sin and die in Hell (Matthew 7:13-14). God’s forgiveness and His saving righteousness and grace are not given to the good because we’re all sinners (Romans 3:23) and there is no one that is “good” but God alone (Matthew 19:17), but God gives mercy and grace and redemption to the one who humbles them self and repents of their sin and acknowledges/believes in Jesus Christ as God who died to pay their sin-debt (Romans 10:9-10).

It’s not about being “good”…it’s about Jesus Christ as our Lord and receiving His “goodness” and perfection imputed over our life by grace through faith in Jesus Christ and receiving God’s forgiveness of sin and thereby being prepared to enter the Kingdom of God through the process of sanctification (John 3:16). Without Jesus as your Lord, it matters NOT how good of a boy you are, if Jesus is not your Mediator for sin (1 Timothy 2:5), you will die in sin and die the “second death” in Hell (John 8:24; John 14:6; Rev. 20:11-15).
