I am sure there are a lot of "high school dropouts" that do some good things, but, until they actually respect the teachers and do the work they do not get a "high school diploma".
I bet you have no problem with that, BUT, you have a problem with God having similar restrictions about going to Heaven.
Does anyone else see the hypocrisy?
How come you are not fighting for giving everyone a "high school diploma" no matter how they behave in "high school"?
How come atheists all over the world are not demanding that everyone receive a "high school diploma" even when they refuse to respect the teachers or do the "school" work?
Can you spell H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-S-Y.

I don't see a question here. What question are you asking?
If the question has anything to do with what happens to Lilly when she dies, then the answer is simple.
We are all sinners, and are separated from God because He is Holy. He loves us so much, and wants to 'fellowship' with us. In order to do that, a sacrifice needs to be made. God sent His Son to be that Sacrifice, so we can "hang out" and have a relationship with the Father. If we confess that we are sinners, and ask Jesus to be the mediator between us and the Father, then we now have a bridge to come to the father.
This is the only way to heaven. Being good and doing good things without this won't help us get to heaven. Ephesians 2:8-9 says that it is by grace we are saved, through faith, and it has nothing to do with what we do, lest anyone boast.
God has prepared good things for us to do in this life, and He wants us to be like Lilly. He (God) loves Lilly so much. She needed to accept the free gift of eternal life from Jesus in order to go to heaven.

She went to a place that the spirit goes after death to await the resurrection. There she will be given more opportunity to learn and accept the teachings of Christ. After the resurrection she will be judged by Christ. Her destination then depends on her decisions during mortality and her acceptance of Jesus. Even so, this is a very brief overview of the subject. Everyone will have an opportunity to accept Jesus' teachings in life or death. Otherwise many people throughout the world without the opportunity to hear his teachings would suffer an awful fate.

And the question is? Could it be who are the Chirstains? Or can you name the one million gods?
Now I see it. She went to live with God. Everyone goes to heaven - I know some people will think I am an apostate - but I think everyone is with God always; some people just don't realize it and make a fool of themselves on this earth. I think this person realized this and continues to realize this. Why else would she bring the grace of God to everyone so that they could see the same thing?

well that is not a question that any of us can answer.....but we are not saved by works alone. we might say we are a good person but by whose standard Do we judge that. Man has tried to get to God by works for all of history but have fallen short. Romans 3:23 "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God". But God set in motion his plan of salvation through Jesus Christ. Now if one has not heard about Jesus and lived a good life then that is one thing and is between that person and God. But if someone has heard about Jesus and has refused the gift of grace then that is another story all together because we cannot trust in our own righteousness to get us to heaven.

When Adam and Eve fell from Eden, they needed salvation.
If Lilly and her tribe were decended from Adam and Eve's children born before the fall, then they needed no salvation. They would grow and die and go to heaven as a natural process.
Does that answer your question?

You have wrong understand of Christianity. Christians are taught to be good - for goodness sake. This is very important to us.
But we don't believe people go to heaven because they are good or bad (or more correctly no body is good enough in God's system). Our God calls himself our Father and us his Children. So like any Father he ONLY accepts his children - good or bad. Christians by definition are self professed sinners and non of us would go to heaven if we were judge by our action.
Think of it this way - in our legal system we can do all the good. But when I drive cross the red light (even by accident), all my good doing is not going to absolve me of my "crime". In this way out goodness cannot erase even the little bits of bad thing (sin) we commit.
Go to a good (Biblical) church and ask some hard questions - if you are really interested in knowing.
Good Luck.

I see... your question was delayed...
She went to another Transdimension designed according to how she lived ("In My Father’s House are many mansions (dimensions), and I go there to prepare a place for you"). It is devoid of the Presence, Light and Love of God, because He does NOT "KNOW" her, for she did not accept God's Son, Christ Jesus, as her personal Savior through His Redemptive Deed upon the Cross of Calvary. Thus, when she died her heart was not "regenerated"; she died with an "unregenerated heart" and still wallowing in her defiled condition as an idol worshiper (Idolatry).
She will be given an Eternal Spirit Body and be held in the Transdimension until the end of Time, at which time she shall have one last opportunity at the Great White Throne Judgment to accept Christ. If she refuses, then she will have to go through the "SECOND DEATH" in which her Eternal Spirit Body will be entirely and permanently extinguished, and her name will not be found written in the "Book of Life", her name will be blotted out.

Somebody who does good but does not follow the rules of christianity, will go to heaven according to most christians.
I have never seen any proof of heaven nor hell, so I think she will go nowhere.
have a nice day, your english is improving. Try to use shorter sentences.

What do you think, will not the judge of all the earth do right?
Isa 64:6 But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
Rev 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
The atheists are not alive spiritually John so they cannot see.
