Has she met Jesus yet?
You tell your aunt that about 6,000 years ago, God created the universe and the world and humans, all in 6 days.
God gave them a few laws to follow.
When God saw that they couldn't follow the laws -- because He made imperfect people but expected them to be perfect -- He drowned all except Noah and his family to show us His undying love!
That approach didn't work so well, so God set up the animal sacrifice system with Moses. It kept the priests fed (they got to eat the sacrificed animals), but the people started turning to neighboring countries' gods anyway.
So, 2000 years ago, God decided to incarnate Himself as a human named Jesus, and come to Earth. Then, He sacrificed Himself to Himself so He could put an end to the wasteful sacrifice system (which wasn't doing any good) and institute the New Covenant!
Under the New Covenant, anybody who reads the whole Bible and follows every word of it AND believes in and follows Jesus will get to go to Heaven!
Everyone else -- the people who make one error, the illiterates, the 4+ billion currently-living people who have never heard of Jesus, the witches, the furries, Catholics, liberal False Christians, Hindus, Nuwaubians, Muslims, Jews, Yoans, and all the people who "interpret" the Bible and decide some parts "are out of date" -- gets a special place, too. See, God also created a place called HELL, a place of eternal punishment.
(God's omniscient, you see. Before He created humans, He knew He would have to torture the vast majority of them for all eternity.)
In Hell, your soul gets to burn forever in an unquenchable lake of fire! Does that sound fun?
Now, if you would rather go to Heaven, all you must do is give Jesus your complete, unquestioning, unthinking obedience in all things forever. Then, when you die, you get to serve Him hand and foot in Heaven in person! Well, as long as you continue to give your complete, unquestioning, unthinking obedience in all things.
Hell will always be one good Jesus-kick away!
