What is this is nonsense? The teachings of Jesus must have had an undue influence on the formation of your beliefs.

Everybody needs God, and many people have God in their lives. Those who live righteously have God in their lives. Those who live sinful unrighteous lives do not have God but Satan in their lives.

Was Noah saved by faith alone? Or was Noah required to believe first then act on that belief?
Would another person have been saved if he had created the exact same ark as Noah without belief in God?
In those days [even now I would imagine], God appeared to, and communicated with people who he considers righteous. John said that Jesus makes his abode with the righteous. In that case to believe is easy,
God would save any righteous person.

I don't understand what you mean. Rajk999 is implying that an atheist has God in their life while they may be living righteous, and denying that God exists.
