[Tantumergo]

He never uses the term "Trinity" but he still believed in the reality of it.

"Purgatory" is simply a word that the Church has used historically to give a name to the purifying fire of God's love that St. Paul is referring to. It is God's mercy that He will purify our souls of the effects of sin in order that we can enter into His presence. Although there are some sins that cannot be "purged" in the next life as Our Lord has taught us:

Matthew 12:32 And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but he that shall speak against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, nor in the world to come.

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."
