    Purgatory?

    Purged from all sins and from all inclination towards sin is what Purgatory is about. 1031 The Church gives the name Purgatory to this final purification of the elect, which is entirely different from the punishment of the damned. The Church formulated her doctrine of faith on Purgatory...

    Purgatory?

    Catholics do not teach eternal purgatory. Only those who will be in heaven pass through purgatory. The "duration" is finite and possibly "lasts but an instant". Catholics do teach eternal punishment in "hell".

    Purgatory?

    1 Corinthians 3:9-15 For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, God's building. 10 According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilled master builder I laid a foundation, and another man is building upon it. Let each man take care how he builds upon it. 11 For no other...

    Purgatory?

    Geeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!! Lutherans sure need a lot of pages to define "sanctification" :smirk: 11 pages! I will read them some time, when I am in need of a Lutheran definition. But I will say that at least Lutherans have given the matter some thought.

    Purgatory?

    Okay. But the question may produce several divergent answers. For example you said that the word "sanctification" covers the transition from earthly imperfection to heavenly perfection. Most Calvinist theologies use the word "sanctification" to mean that slow and often difficult process of...

    Purgatory?

    Really? I am never sure what Protestants mean by "sanctification". For Catholics its meaning is clear and well defined.

    Purgatory?

    Catholics do not call the books "apocrypha" for us they are simply holy scripture in the same way that the Gospel according to saint Matthew is. When discussing scripture with Jews and Protestants Catholics often use the word "deuterocanon" to point to the seven books excluded by Jews and...

    Purgatory?

    Purgatory is in the bible. You just do not know the bible very well MennoSota. That is why you do not see it when it is in front of you. Hidden from you in plain sight. Purgatory is even in your eviscerated 66 book "bible" - by the way, do you notice how like the number of the beast 66 is?

    Purgatory?

    "devoted to" or maybe "devout in" but not "devote to" - helpful criticism without a bit of meanness in it. Purgatory is a universal Christian belief but some people like to think of purgatory as instantaneous so they never use the word and a few of them get all worked up when Catholics use the...

    The RCC and Lizzie the College Student

    Her videos are certainly not going to win any prizes for erudition and clarity. :smirk: Like Lizzie says in the other video, the one that friend Confessional Lutheran posted, she does not go to mass, does not believe Catholic dogma, is not a Catholic, and does not attend RCIA (she couldn't...
