Question
Hi,

Are some people just evil?  Can you ask God for help and be denied because you have done too much evil?  Can you go to hell and lose your free will before your physical death?  Are there some sins that God refused to forgive or a compilation of a life of sins that God says, "No, I cannot save you?"  Are some people just evil no matter how hard they tried to get help?

Answer
Dear Lisa,

God loves each of us infinitely and He desires to lead each of us to the eternal life  and to the true happiness. But God is perfectly Holy and Good; God cannot tolerate evil because evil is uncompatible with His good and holy nature.
So, we cannot go to heaven as long as we are not completely purified from our sins and sanctified. Our sanctification is necessary for us to go to heaven.
None of us can sanctify himself by himself; we all need God's grace to be sanctified.
God desires to sanctify us, but He has given us a free-will, so God needs our consent in order to purify and sanctify us. God respects our choices and therefore God cannot santify those who do not want to be sanctified and purified, those who do not want to stop sinning, those who do not want to live a holy life. These are those who go to hell.
In conclusion, God forgives all those who are truly repented.

I hope thi may help you,

Your brother in Christ,

Marco
