No scripture references in catholicism? ok. well I guess that isn't the scripture they base their reasoning on. The rest of my post was to argue against losing salvation and to equate those verses to loss of rewards.
Thanks Josiah, but I was asking about scriptural backing to the belief. It was the scripture that you had questioned... I'll post the reasoning behind what I had originally posted that sparked this thread.
I think this scripture is the source of the reasoning behind purgatory ...
Romans...

Romans 14:12
So then each one of us will give an account concerning himself to God.
Romans 12:3
For I say, through the grace given to me, to every one who is among you, not to think more highly of himself than...

I posted this elsewhere but thought to repost it here:
The trinity definately is basic in the matter of securuty of salvation once obtained.
God the Father's work
Purpose of God,( basic to our Security ) Ephesians 1:4, Hebrews 2:10,
The Power of God (to keep and save) John 10:29, Romans...

It's interesting that you provided a link from Natural Hygiene Society because that's what I studied during the 90's. Sheldon was one of the founders. Their research, during the 1800's, was deemed not a science by the bloodletters of the time (medical profession) and the universities shut down...
I think they came from pre-adamic times. Scripture seems to point to a time that the earth was inhabited with satan and the fallen angels. They would have been a very advanced civilization (Atlantis comes to mind) much more advanced than us. As primitive as we are we still have escape routes to...
Starting from a completely empty stomach fruit will only take 1/2 hr, vegetable dish 2 hrs, starch with no protein takes 3 hrs, a protein meal with no starch takes 4-5 hrs and a meal that combines starch and protein takes up to 8 hrs. That's assuming that nothing else is ingested in those hrs...
Often what people think of as hunger pangs and growling for food are actually the process of digestion not yet completed. For instance it's almost 10:30 am here and my stomach is making all kinds of weird noises. But I know my stomach is full of things undigested from yesterday because of all...
Today I'm going to start it off with a feast at the local Mexican restaurant before picking up groceries for the next 3 days. I'll be picking up yams, kale, avacodos, olives, eggs, red peppers, black beans and I need to get some nutritional yeast for a nooch sauce for the beans and some balsamic...
My point of contention with that (and this is just a discipline for me, I don't recommend it to anyone who has not researched it) is the digestive system has first priority over any other of the body's systems. As long as there is food to digest there is no healing taking place. So to discipline...
Today I'm going to put together a menu outline of things that I enjoy eating, working out an average calorie needed, base it on mostly nutrient dense foods and then work it into a one-meal-a-day food plan. The idea is to have as much time where the digestive system is resting so the healing...
