Say a person asked jesus into his or hear heart, asked him to guide and follow all the years of his or her life. tried her best to live and serve him. Kept the truth to a loved one, but then lied to the loved one . Lived with that loved one, married that loved one, was happy with that loved one. then dies, and never told the loved one that she lied to them, but she told jesus and asked him to forgive her for that lie. will God have forgiven her and taken her into his kingdom or since she never told the loved one on earth the truth, will she be succumbed to hell?

I doubt that anyone has ever gone to Hell for just one lie.

Once you have asked Jesus to save you from your sins, you are always saved. No matter what...of course it doesn't mean that we can go around sinning all that we want after that. God still forgives your sin: past, present and future. If you have the above problem...then, you need to spend some time in prayer asking the Lord to help you to forgive yourself for telling the lie.

Human forgiveness cannot compare to Heavenly varieties. "As far as the heavens are above the Earth, so are My ways above yours." If God forgives someone, can any human negate that forgiveness? A God, who has never sinned, has just witnessed a filthy, repugnant lie, and yet He forgives. Can any human claim this? Godly forgiveness passes the Earthly in every way.

Jesus loves us so much that he came to die for us so that we could be with him in heaven. He knows that it is impossible for us not to sin, it became human nature in the garden of Eden. That is why he had to die for us. All we have to do is ask sincerly for the forgiveness of our sin and he will give it. He loves you and doesn't want you to perish.
When 'quidproquo888' just answered your question he used only part of the whole quote which can be misleading......make sure you read the Bible and all your questions will be answered there.
So the simple answer to your question is no you won't go to hell if you asked Jesus to be your savior. He has put your name in the Lambs Book of Life.

No the person telling the lie will DEFINITELY go to heaven. Jesus' blood cleanses us from ALL sin. Don't let satan harass you by constantly reminding you of a mistake you made. God removes our sin & HE NEVER even thinks about it again.
Psa 103:12 As far as the east is from the west, so far has He put our sins from us.
Hope this helps

Asking God for forgiveness is all you need to do.
Why cause the person who was lied to any pain?
God would understand that you were only protecting the relationship in question.
And, as Jesus once said: ...go and sin no more.

No she is not doomed to hell. The forgivness of Jesus is not dependent on interactions with other people. It is strictly faith (believing God) in the fact that Jesus paid for that lie.

The intention of deeds, words and thoughts to hurt someone will be sin and punished in future life.
Similarly any good done will be rewarded. All these resulting gain(heaven) & pain(hell) will follow each other in the same sequence.
Jesus as teacher is only a catalyst.

I would think telling the love one a lie is still a lie, however if he pray for forgiveness then God will forgive him

If that were her only fault I would say she went to Heaven.
God knows that very few people will be perfect when they die, but if we are growing to be more perfect like Jesus than He will be faithful to take us to Heaven when we die (even if we just gave our heart to Him that day).
But I also think that it is possible that it could keep her from Heaven IF God asked her to admit the lie to whom she told it and she kept refusing. It might keep her out.
