Just because the sin against the Holy Spirit will be forgiven neither in this life or the world to come, does not prove that there are other sins which are not forgiven in this life but will be forgiven in the life to come.

Pure eisegesis.

The cross is our "purgatory."

[Tantumergo]

The cross is our "purgatory."

Really!!! Then I suppose St. Paul was wasting his time:

Col 1:24 Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up those things that are wanting of the sufferings of Christ, in my flesh, for his body, which is the church:

Although I suppose the cross is our purgatory if we truly pick it up and follow the Lord as St. Paul was doing - the question is will we carry it far enough in this life or will we have further to go in the next? Some good ole fashioned indulgences obtained in this life will certainly lighten the load!!!!
