[Cronos]

Purgatory is in fact DUE to the efficacy of Christ’s one-time sacrifice. It is the final sanctification/cleansing for those going to heaven. It is not a “last chance to get to heaven” as those who are going to heck aren’t going to experience purgatory, only those going to heaven are.

A good explanation. I read it is the Trip to heaven by theologians that believe in purgatory. That is it in a nutshell to get away from all the misunderstanding stereo type remarks. It is the trip to heaven. Some do not know that if a soul is in this state, heaven is the final destination.

I have read were people thought a soul can lose heaven which is impossible. Why because it is the trip by God in this belief. No more chance for hell.
