Some of your church fellows would appear to be in disagreement, what with citing I Corinthians 15:29, ie: baptism of the dead, in support of purgatory, D-fender.

I'm sorry, could you be more specific? Disagreement on what? That those in Purgatory are *not* bound for Heaven? If so, that's incorrect Catholic doctrine. Baptism of the Dead? No, that's definitely not a Catholic practice.

I have not seen 1 Corinthians 15 referenced for Purgatory, but I have seen 1 Corinthians 3.

thanks for your courteous reply...

In regards to your comment: ‘Some of your church fellows would appear to be in disagreement...’ Only certain people have the authority to officially speak on behalf of authentic Catholic teachings. I recommend you check The Catechism of the Roman Catholic Church for authentic teachings. The Catechism is on the Internet.

I'm a lay-Catholic & I have authority to only convey Church teachings & pray I am doing it faithfully. There is One, Holy Catholic & Apostolic Church.> & The Church has one authentic teaching & one Truth. The Catechism explains the truth & it should not be confused with speculative-theology.
