I know what you are going to say, only God knows that. And to that statement I would agree, it is true that only God knows. However, it is reasonable to assume that a person who lives their life following a dead religion, when they die, will be without Christ. Mother Teresa’s gospel was not the Gospel of Jesus Christ and Galatians 1:6-9 addresses this.

Galatians 1:6-9 (English Standard Version)

No Other Gospel

6 I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel — 7 not that there is another one, but there are some who trouble you and want to distort the gospel of Christ. 8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed. 9As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be accursed.

All the above being said, the following cover article in the Sept. 3, 2007 edition of Time Magazine is an interesting read.

Jesus has a very special love for you. As for me, the silence and the emptiness is so great that I look and do not see, listen and do not hear.
— Mother Teresa to the Rev. Michael Van Der Peet, September 1979
