"Okay, and believers who leave this life in the state of grace but still with with some attachment to sin are purified through Christ's sacrifice how, when, and where, exactly?"

The moment Christ died, he took ALL the sins of the world on Him -- not some of them.

It is up to us whether we accept His "grace."

As He said to His Father according to Scripture: "It is done."

"Keep in mind that Scripture says that nothing unclean can enter heaven and that our God is a consuming fire. No attachment to sin can survive in his presence, can it?"

Hear ya...

Again, through the Lord's mercy, that was the reason for the sinless Christ's sacrifice. NO man was/is sinless but by and through the redemption of the Savior....

Nobody is disputing that.

Now, one more time, believers who leave this life in the state of grace but with an attachment to sin must be purified before they enter the presence of God. Do you agree or disagree?

If you agree, then how, when or where does this purification take place in the life of the individual believer?
