A person Goes to hell because his sins are paid for ,BUT refuses to believe the truth so as to be saved. 1 cor 1.21 .
For all have sinned ( Romans 3 ) AND come short of the Glory of God .
Atonement is one component of many components in salvation. It alone is not what saves. (Tit. 3:5; Rom. 5:10)
Atonement is a prerequisite for salvation, not the execution of it. (Rom. 5, 8; 2 Cor. 5; Tit. 3:5).
The Atonement must be received. (Rom. 5:11, 17; Jn. 1:12; 1 Cor. 15:1-4)
The Atonement does not glorify anyone. (Rom. 8)

God choose an elect people before the foundation of the world. He gave these same people to Christ to be a sacrifice for their sins, offered to God, not offered to mankind. Sometime between their natural birth and their physical death God quickens them to a spiritual being by his sovereign grace, putting his Holy Spirit within them, in which faith is one of the fruits of the Holy Spirit.
After going through the rebirth, they still do commit sins, but they are not held accountable to them, as far as their eternal inheritance is concerned, because their sins were paid for on the cross.

Christ saved everyone that his Father gave him from their sins on the cross, as far as their inheritance of heaven is concerned.
After those he died for are born into this world by natural birth, and sometime between their natural birth and their natural death, God quickens them to a spiritual life, which does not eliminate them from occasionally sinning, and necessitates them to repent, not to receive eternal heaven, but to stay in good fellowship with God. Repentance in not the cause of getting eternal life, but is the product of eternal life.

(see rainbow)1 Cor 2:14, The natural unregenerate man cannot discern (believe) the things of the Spirit, and thinks them to be foolishness.
The only way that the natural man can learn to believe in the things of the Spirit is for God to quicken him to a new spiritual life, with the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, while he is yet spiritually dead (having no ability to believe), Eph 2:5.

That would only make sense with something we could never imagine believing. Like " to be saved you must lift up the moon 3 times " .
Acts 1:3
King James Version
3 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:
Notice here that God gives many ' infallible proofs'
Hardly seems necessary given your world view .
