>>Souls in purgatory work?<<

LOL When Christ rose from the grave he earned us a one way, direct flight ticket. No delays, stopovers or changing planes. Being perfect He made sure we go first class with no cheap seat restrictions. When He rose from the grave it was all taken care of with no possibility of add ons or extra charges at check in. When it’s time for our flight we carry no baggage because we are provided with everything we will need when we get there.

Does death perfect us, so that we are instantly fit for heaven at the moment we leave the body? I don’t think it does. I don’t see people being perfected before death, either, nor have I seen any of the Sola adherehnts quote any scripture to that effect.

I do not recall anyone on these threads ever claiming they were perfect in doctrine or behavior, although possibly I missed someone.

1 Cor. 3 teaches otherwise, and I, being Catholic, go by the scripture and not by Protestant feel-good theological fantasies.
