Ok, my mum died a few months ago. And lately I’ve being really worried, I want the truth for a change from someone religious.
My mum got cheated on by her husband years ago before I was born and she tried making it work it didn’t he wanted the woman and not her she had a kid with him as well at the time she got a divorce as soon as she found out about him cheating on her and then she met my dad and married him. And had me. Catholics say adultery is wrong, but my mum was a really good person she really loved my dad right till she died for 11 years and she was happy. She wasn’t religious but when when I went to a primary school whci hwas catholic because that was the only ok school around the area then she decided to try out church she liked it a lot and she went odd times. I used to ask her when I was younger if she believed in God and she did. Would she go to hell? Based on the fact she was divorced and so on?

Your mom sounds like a good person who did the best that she could with her life. She raised a child who is compassionate enough to worry about the state of her soul, so she did very well. I wouldn't worry about her being in hell. God judges us by what is in our soul. I think the good go to heaven and the evil to hell.

The Church is relaxing its stance on this subject. They often grant annulments when a spouse is deserted by the other spouse. It is also encouraging people who have had such problems to return to the fold, and they have special programs in our area for this.

If this doesn't make you feel better, go and talk with a priest. I'm sure he'll put your mind at ease. Take care.

I have great news, NO.
There is no Hell.
Religion preaches this to keep us good.
Instead of hell we all go to heaven but some on a lower plane, meaning we need more growth and learning for our souls.
It sounds to me like your mother really did not do anything so wrong. Stop worring about it. She is already in Heaven watching down on you to see how you will handle her death.
Brush yourself off, move on and have a great life or let her passing on ruin yours. It is your choice. She wants you to pick move on and make her proud.
Belive me when I say she is with you. Her spirit can visit you many time and they come to keep you safe and your life on track. You will see little signs along the way: a bird at your window, your coat moved, you phone rings and no one there. They do this to get your attention and let you know they are not dead only in a different form.
Heaven is beautiful and full of peace. She is happy and wants you to be happy too. Open your mind and your heart and you will then and only then understand she is not dead. Her spirt is eternal and trust me, you will see her again.
Life is a work in progress for our souls to grow and learn. When the job is done we go home to God. Simple as that.
She is full of love for you and she is there if you listen.

The Catholic Church allows people to divorce or get an annulment. It doesn't allow them to remarry if divorced but it does allow them to remarry if they are granted an annulment. Even though she didn't have the knowledge to apply for an annulment, she may have been granted one. God knows that.

Your mother did not commit adultery and she cannot be held accountable for a marriage partner who did. We all pray for our deceased family.

As posted, I would talk with a priest.

You either have to believe that everybody goes to hell because nobody is perfect, or nobody goes to hell because Jesus paid for all of man's sins. Really when you can't tell the difference between two opposite outcomes, it demonstrates the premise is false. Therefore there is no god/heaven/hell.
And your mother is at peace.

If your mom had Jesus as her savior then she is will be saved by him.

as far as hell goes this is what it is . i will have to tell you a story to show u.

Their is a man in the book Corinthians that is having sex with his mother in law . he is told to leave the church least he repent . so he did repent and they let him come back . but it was said to him that if you continua to do that same sin over and over again his soul would be turned over to the devil to the day of judgment. my guess is this is hell . now doesn't say he would be cast in to the lake of fire which is not hell (clearly two different places) . because if he has Jesus as he Savior then he is saved by him. his punishment for his sin is that he waits in hell and he will still get rewards according to his works when Jesus comes back . .

hope this helps
MAY GOD BLESS US ALL

Adultery is wrong and is allowed for separation without sin or guilt or shame.

dont understand why youre worried...you have no control over what might happen, and had no influence over it while she lived. Ask the priest I guess, if you decide to indulge in such nonsense.
