ABSOLUTELY merciful....kept me out of hell for my shortcomings but required me to purge myself of that evil by awaiting a guaranteed presence in Heaven until I had done so.

Golly!

I might have to do that!!!

How did YOU do it?

the discussion was on purgatory. I haven't done so yet, but if I die I am willing (actually no choice) to spend some time in purgatory to insure that I arrive in Heaven in a state of perfect purity. You will face the same destiny and once there, you will appreciate the fact that you didn't deserve hell which lasts a long time!!
