The christ saved everyone in the world was only he created a way to heaven. It does not mean he used his blood to wash out our sin and these sin will not commit again. If christian commit sin after his/her baptist, I can guanrantee he/she will go to hell definately. A christian does not labet he/she is a purity. He/she will learn how to purified only.

Just because we go to church does not make us perfect. Christians are still humans and humans will sin....it's our nature. The Bible tells us to repent and turn from our evil ways. If she continues to live in the same sin over and over, then the Lord will deal with her in His own way concerning the sin. Personally, I had a problem with a particular sin that I did not want to give up. I would repent and then go and do it again...time after time. I believed and loved God but wasn't willing to let go of the sin for Him. Because of this, I did not enjoy a close relationship with Him and all the blessings that come with that. Once I finally let go of the thing and turn completely from it, the Lord has blessed me beyond what I would've ever expected.
Usually, when a woman is sleeping around like this it's not because she is some kind of nymphomaniac....no, it's because she has an emptiness in her heart that she is trying to fill......some people try to fill it with drugs, alcohol, and even sex. It is a God given hole though. Only our creator can and will (if you seek Him) fill that void in our hearts and life.
Try not to judge her. Her pain is probably greater than you will ever know.

Yes, if she repents she will be saved. In God's eyes, sin is sin, no matter what level we think it is at. When she's with "every man in town" it's no different in God's eyes than when someone lies about how much money they made or why they were late for school. As for continuing the behavior, if she has truly repented, she won't want to. People can still occasionally fall into bad behavior, but they need to recognize it when they do and ask forgiveness. Also, just because she makes it to church all the time doesn't make her a Christian. Like the saying goes, "I can stand in my garage all I want, but that doesn't make me a car."
God loves you so much - He wants you to be with Him. No matter what you've done in your life, there is forgiveness from Him available if we just ask. Listen to the song East to West by Casting Crowns. Here's the link - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6zdihmwy1M&mode=related&search=
You said your question was serious and this song really does help with the answer. You won't go to hell for listening to it. I promise. :) Also, I'd welcome an email from you letting me know what you thought of it.

Roman.... Repenting our PAST sins is just one step for salvation..... evidently she either DIDN'T give that up in FULL to the Lord....
We're not just talking actions here, we cannot hold back on any memory of action, people involved, locations, "feelings", etc.,. that is involved with each action.
For instance: A person repents of theft....but holds back the thrill, the anticipation, the fear, the exhilaration of completing an unheard of theft at a place that boasts their security is so high they are impenetrable, the looks on the victims faces, the sense of power over another, etc.,. So, ok, let's say the theft that was a sin and was erased....but, because you held onto one or more of the other components that made up the crime and after effects of it, satan still has a HOLD on you and can pull you right back in.....and, because you held onto one or more, for what ever reason, you were not giving your total WILL to God....therefore, you weren't really saved until you DO.
False conversions happen everyday....that's when we say the "words" in a moment of high emotion, or, doing it because someone says we should, or, because it "looks good" to society, etc.,. People whom do this are NOT "saved", and they can say "Lord, Lord..." all they want but Jesus already said what will happen.
That rich man whom sincerely wanted to follow Jesus was turned away because he was told to give up his love of riches, which he just could not do.
Too bad you weren't a praying person, because, that poor woman needs prayer
**even satan and the demons believe that Jesus is God's Son and is mankind's "Savior"....believing is only 1/2 the solution.

Repentance isn't a one time deal. Part of the repentance process is having a change of heart to not sin again. Also we must try to make right what we have wronged. If I stole candy from a store then felt sorrow in my heart for what I have done, I will pray to my Father in Heaven and acknowledge I have sinned, and ask for His forgiveness in the name of Jesus Christ. Afterward I will go to that store and either give the candy back or pay the full amount for what I have taken. Then I will work hard not to sin again. Will I sin again? Yes because I am not perfect... will I steal candy again? Hopefully not.
If the woman you speak of repents but continues her actions than she never really had a change of heart, or a want to stop that sin.

The Bible states that whosoever believes in Jesus Christ will not perish but, will be saved. Therefore if the women truly repented of her sins and believes in the salvation offered by Jesus Christ then she will go to heaven. Going to church will not do it nor will saying your a Christian do it. If she is saved and continues her behavior then there is an issue where she is a sex addict and is trying to stop or she never really repented and is not sorry for her sins.

If she repented, she wouldn't be doing this. To repent means to turn away; to change.
Going to church doesn't make one a Christian. I go to church at times, and I'm a Pagan. I don't expect to be "saved", but I enjoy the ritual. I enjoy the music at times.
Then again, I don't necessarily see having sex as sinful. If she is married, and presumably committed to a monogamous relationship, I'd see that as wrong. Still, sin is an offense against god, and I don't see how we could offend a god anymore than a pet ferret could offend its owner.

She must be forgiven by Christ Jesus to be saved. In order to be forgiven, she must really have a heart that is sorry and repent. Repent is to have remorse and to change.
God knows the condition of the true heart. He knows if one is really sorry or not. Jesus forgives our sins through his GRACE, though we do not deserve it because we sin, if we are really sorry he does forgive.
You say you KNOW she is a Christian because you see her going to church. Not all that go to church and claim that they are a Christian are. A Christian is one who has seeked out Christ and asked for forgivenss and for Christ to lead their life, one who tries to model their life after Christ. Going to church doesn't make you a Christian, saying it doesn't make it so.
As I said, ONLY GOD knows the condition of her heart. No one else can judge that. One can speculate. One can approach her and point out her outward apperance and advise her to seek the Lord, but only she can do that and only God can know for sure.
I would speculate that she doesn't know what it means to be a Christian and therefore doesn't live accordingly. She is in a state that can give her heavy consequences, but again, only God knows.
Being saved isn't about having knowledge that your sins can be forgiven so go out and sin, after all, their is forgiveness. This would be a mockery of the state of grace. A truley repentant heart must be just that, really sorry. Christians will sin, as they are human. The difference is do they sin knowingly and enjoy it and really have no remorse for it, or are they sinners who are human and fail and are really sorry and try not to repeat that sin.
Only God knows for sure. All other is just speculation.

Actually, the only two who were granted this privilege were the two men being crucified with Jesus.
It was the Catholic Church that later expanded this to mean anyone who repented would be saved, but this isn't said in the Bible. Go ahead, check it out.

Sorry I'm recalling my earlier reply. It was not meant for this question.
I thought to remind you all that a popular whore in Jericho lied more than once to the police about the Jews that she was hiding in her house. She made it into the New Testament "Faith Hall of Fame (Heb 11)" for having the guts to protect God's chosen people. She never gave up her successful carreer as a PROSTITUTE, either. Christians follow the Bible examples for role models! In Heave she will be proudly known as the PROSTITUTE RAHAB.
Hebrews 11:31(NIV) By faith the PROSTITUTE Rahab, because she welcomed the spies, was not killed with those who were disobedient.
