That depends on whether or not you're asking if all 13 Longinus Gears would be needed to defeat the God of Heaven and Earth or if just one would be sufficient for the intended task. It was mentioned in the story (approximately volume 4) that the Longinus are Sacred Gears that adapted and evolved into new forms as a result of one or more abilities combining and being contained within the shell of the Gear. Abliities that would otherwise be found in other Sacred Gears, as mentioned by Azazel. Take the Boosted Gear for instance. It has the ability to boost the power of its user with the only limit being the user's body. It also posesses the ability to transfer anywhere from a minor portion to a significant portion of its power depending on the amount of power transfered as well as the number of recipients in the transfer. These are abilities that came from different Sacred Gears that combined into a single being. This is one possibile method to transform a Sacred Gear into a Longinus Gear.

But as to your original question, and this is just my opinion mind you, but it is matter of whether or not an individual who possesses such a power/artifact is up to the task. That is to say, can a person harness the full power of such a Gear in order to take down a god, let alone THE God of Christianity? Well, that is a topic with no single answer to it. Rather, it's a topic to where the answers will vary as much as the number of possible Sacred Gears as well as the people who would come into such power(s).
