To atheists, a Christian telling them that they're going to Hell, is about as scary as a small child telling an adult they won't get any presents from Santa. So, instead, tell them who Christ is, and why he came, what it is he came to save us from, and what eternal destination is. You can't tell someone an answer to a question they're not asking, so make them ask themselves "Is there really a God, and if there is, where does that leave me?" Lead them to the cross with the shepherd's staff, not chase them with flaming torches.
