Dear ______,
People are sent to hell because they do not have a Saviour and have to pay for their own sins. We have ALL broken God's laws and the penalty for breaking His law is eternal damnation.
Because God is perfectly just and righteous, He could not allow sinners to enter heaven. This meant that all of mankind would be separated from God forever. However, the Lord in His great love and mercy determined to save some of us rebels and make us His children. Jesus Christ became a human in order to pay the tremendous penalty for those whom God had chosen to be His children.
Perhaps you might be one of those whom God has chosen to save. Keep reading the Bible and praying for God's mercy. "For many are called, but few are chosen."

Not my call, but I can suggest that you will probably live in a hell of your own making if you choose to be promiscuous. It is a fact of life that promiscuity can lead to a whole bunch of very real earthly consequences. I don't know if promiscuity will lead me (or anyone else) to a place called hell, but I DO know that the existence of STDs alone is enough for me to accept that promsicuity is dangerous...and diseases aren't the only possible physical or mental consequence of casual sex!

I don't believe in hell. Hell was made up to scare the little peasants into believing what the powerful people wanted them to. In short, it was a money scam. You went to church, paid money for penance (what we consider offerings now) and your slate was wiped clean. No one is sent to hell. But you do "Pay" for your mistakes(Karma, what goes around comes around). But then again, I don't believe in the word sin. I just believe in living to not hurt anyone or anything. If I make a mistake, I will learn from it. Promiscuity isn't necessarily a bad thing as long as you are not hurting the other people involved(And you still have self respect).

No.
What results in condemnation is refusing to repent.
But first, you would need to know what it means to repent, which you don't.
Acts 17:30 And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:
John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
John 16:7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.
8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;

If you don't repent and turn away from your sins then the answer is yes, but here's the good news, The forgiveness that is in Jesus Christ is conditional upon "repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ" (Acts 20:21). It is a gift that God offers to everyone, but individuals must receive it by repenting and trusting in Christ, or they will remain dead in their sins. No one has biblical grounds to continue in sin, assuming that they are safe just because Jesus died on the cross. See 1 John 3:4–6.

If you don't change now and if you don't say sorry now maybe you will, but God only knows I guess. We can't judge you burt hopefully you will change, while there is time and not wait for the last minute. It might be too late. God is all merciful but also all just so good luck and God bless you. Ask help from God He can help you no matter what you have done. Don't give up and don't lose hope.

Though Shalt not Commit Adultry
Jesus defined adultry as looking with lust at another that is not your spouse. Do this and you have commited adultry in your heart. If you repent and put your faith in Jesus you will be saved. Jesus paid your "fine" in heaven for your sins. If you believe in him and truely repent then you will be saved.

You mean you are having sex with many people?
If it's woman, No. If it's male, Yes.
But if you have a sex, make sure to have a child.
Purpose of the sex is to have a child, not to waste your unrecoverable, most important energy.
Have a happy life.
