QuestionIf I am trying to improve and haven't done a lot of sins in a long time, am I still going to hell because I sinned in the past?Community AnswerNo matter how hard we work to improve our behavior, we can never (in heart and actions) be perfect enough to deserve a relationship with God and eternity in heaven with Him. That's why Jesus came: our sins have opened a massive chasm between us and God, and Jesus laid his life down across that chasm so we could be reconnected and cross over from death to life. You need to accept Jesus as your Savior, believing that he died on the cross to save your sins. Once you do that, you have God's forgiveness for all past and future sins. At that point, when he looks at you, God sees perfection because Jesus is in you. You are a new creation.

QuestionHow do I ask in a sincere to God way to be saved and wash my sins away every time I do something bad?Community AnswerAll people do many bad things, even though some self deceive about their perfection.

What do I do?TreeofHolzCommunity AnswerYou could research local resources in her area for help, or send her information to organizations in your area that do outreach. This way, her family and herself, can be properly vetted. Do not send her your own money, you have no way of verifying who she actually is. Keep her in prayer though, truthful or not, Jesus is still the answer to all.
