"For we must all appear before the judgement seat of Crist, so that each one may receive good or evil, according to what he has done in the body." 2cor 5:10

So are you meaning by quoting the above verse that Purgatory is the judgement seat of Christ? As a Protestant, I have to say that at least in the Churches I have attended, this verse is quoted often.

It's not likely that Jesus would live in Purgatory, any more than He would live in Hades. And I don't think that pasage even hints at it, unless you see a nuance that I didn't notice.

It is my understanding that souls would be banished TO Purgatory, rather than FROM Purgatory.

There are so many passages in the OT and the NT that hint at Purgatory, that I can't even undestand why any controversy.
