Mother Teresa taught the Gospel by living it:
He will place the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.
Then the king will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father. Inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, a stranger and you welcomed me, naked and you clothed me, ill and you cared for me, in prison and you visited me.' Then the righteous will answer him and say, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? When did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? When did we see you ill or in prison, and visit you?' And the king will say to them in reply, 'Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.' Then he will say to those on his left, 'Depart from me, you accursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink, a stranger and you gave me no welcome, naked and you gave me no clothing, ill and in prison, and you did not care for me.' Then they will answer and say, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or ill or in prison, and not minister to your needs?' He will answer them, 'Amen, I say to you, what you did not do for one of these least ones, you did not do for me.' And these will go off to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life."
Matthew 25:33-46
"‘Not everyone who says to me, "Lord, Lord," shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven’" (Matt. 7:21).
"‘Why do you call me "Lord, Lord," and not do what I tell you?’" (Luke 6:46).
"For he will render every man according to his works . . ." (Rom. 2:6-8).
"For it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law who will be justified" (Rom. 2:13).
"For if we sin deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a fearful prospect of judgments . . . (Heb. 10:26-27).
"What does it profit, my brethren, if a man says he has faith but has not works? Can his faith save him?" (Jas. 2:14).
"So faith by itself, if it has no works, is dead" (Jas. 2:17).
"But some one will say, ‘You have faith and I have works.’ Show me your faith apart from your works, and I by my works will show you my faith. . . .Do you want to be shown, you foolish fellow, that faith apart from works is barren? (Jas. 2:18-20).
"You see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone" (Jas. 2:24).

Hi. Mother Teresa is not in Hell.Nobody is in Hell .Every person God created has to be judged first. And that will not happen until the "The Second Coming."
How could you ask such a question in the first place.and why are you only asking it to 'born again" people? You might end up in Hell for offending God with your statement.We all have doubts now and then because our belief is based on faith alone .It is only natural so we ask God to strengthen us in our faith.
I am always amazed at some of the answers by people who have no idea what they are saying.Mother Teresa did what God would like all of us to do,and that is to love everyone unconditionally .Is there anyone here who can do that?

mom Teresa would possibly no longer have mumbled some "Romans street" formula, yet she enjoyed Jesus and served the poorest of His undesirable human beings. The fruit of her existence shows that she grew to become right into a clean creature in Christ, and that's the real try of being born back. So no, she's no longer in Hell. She's with the Lord that she enjoyed lots on earth.

Good question. A serious answer would be that her willingness to carry on with her charitable work, even in the face of her doubts, shows tremendous care for humanity.
On a different metaphysical plane, do you think it is true that every night the Devil and Jerry Falwell pray that Chuck Norris doesn't die and go to hell?

All Bible characters except Jesus doubted God at times. That isnt an unforgivable sin.

if you repent god isn't gonna send you straight to hell. i'm sure many people have doubted him at some time or other. if he sent everyone to hell that doubted him at some point, it would just be him and jesus up there.

I doubt it, but who knows?
She was a very good woman but if she thought her works alone were going to save her, she was mistaken.

Her own testimony is that she did not believe there was a god, therefore she was a less believer than satan because satan believes there is a God & he trembles at the thought. So My answer is yes. Now My catholic friends, let's face facts.

I don't want to be disrespectful of a woman who deserves the utmost of respect, but according to Bible teaching that salvation is by grace through faith alone, I would suspect that she is in hell. Catholics teach a salvation by works and no one can be saved under that teaching.
Ephesians 2:8 For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; 9 not as a result of works, so that no one may boast.

they can´t be bragging Jesus himself will reject many christians also according to Matthew 7:21-23 "“Not everyone saying to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter into the kingdom of the heavens, but the one doing the will of my Father who is in the heavens will. 22 Many will say to me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and expel demons in your name, and perform many powerful works in your name?’ 23 And yet then I will confess to them: I never knew YOU! Get away from me, YOU workers of lawlessness!"
but answering your question, no, she is actually sleeping in death as Lazarus and she will resurrected according to Acts 24:15 " and I have hope toward God, which hope these [men] themselves also entertain, that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous."
