Do you really understand what Purgatory is? It is a place where we can offer our suffering in not seeing God immediately as reparation for the time on earth that we didn’t make that reparation.

Examples might be that I never said I’m sorry to someone I hurt with my words.

Or than I have never forgiven someone who committed calumny against me.

Purgatory does not diminish Christ at all — where are you getting these strange ideas?

Where am I getting these strange ideas?

Well, I get my information from the bible, of which purgatory is not in.

I also understand that Christ’s sacrifice for me was perfect and doesn’t need any other “assistance”.

I’ve accepted him into my heart and I’m forgiven, I don’t need to wait around in some place to purge out.

I’d suggest forgiving people and asking for forgiveness before you leave your physical body, I suggest that because the bible teaches it.
