Mother Theresa
 
Is she in Heaven or Hell?

Ask the Pope where he put her....or pray to her and ask her yourself. :)

I don't know if I would go that far!!!! Funny maybe.

Seriously though. What would be your answer if someone asked you?

I don't sit in the judgement seat for anybody, only God does that, however the Bible declares that works don't save us. She did good works, undoubtedly. But did she ever obey the Gospel of Jesus Christ, which Paul declared was the power of God unto salvation?

Up to God ... she displayed fruit of the Spirit however.

Well uhmm... Did she have the Holy Ghost? I can't say wether or not she went to heaven or hell, because I don't have anyone's heaven nor do I have anyone's hell to put someone in. So I would say you've asked the wrong people if you want the answer to that question.

Oh if someone asked ME?

Ok.

Something like this.....MT, just like all of the millions that have died, is in the hands of a just God, but having said that sir/miss (whoever was asking :D) we need to realize that God has a plan for each of us to follow. Let me share that plan with you. God's plan is found in the Bible at Acts 2:38.

The bible teaches we are not to say who is in heaven or who is in hell.
I wrote a comparison and contrast essay for my college English Comp
class describing why I think hero's still exist in the world.She was one
of my main arguments.She was a very good woman.That does not put her
in heaven but it sure makes her a good example to follow for good works
though good works do not save you.My salvation though is not based
on whether Mother Teresa went to heaven or hell.Its based on the fact
that I know what salvation is and I am going to be held accountable for
that knowledge and how I acted on it.God is a just judge.I would never
call God unfair.He does what He wants in the kingdom of men.I don't know
Teresas heart.God does.He is the one she is answering to.I am to keep my
heart and mind fixed on Him because one day I will have to answer
to Him for myself.I am so grateful for grace and His blood because in
no way in my own self do I deserve favor.Its the gift of God.

I would enjoy that essay I'm sure. Thanks for a great post.
