If Christ paid the price for our sins, the sins of the world, then what the Heck is anyone doing in Hell? Christ died for the sins of the WORLD!
Perhaps there is more qualifiers in determining one's final destiny...
Are there some sins that Christ didn't pay the price for?
Yes, the unrepented ones. See my above question. Unless you believe that Hell is empty, how do you explain "Christ died for the sins of the world" - and yet, some people don't make it to heaven?

jokus: Yes, the unrepented ones.
I thought you told me that Christ died for ALL sins? Then do you believe man has to cover their own sins?
"...how do you explain "Christ died for the sins of the world" - and yet, some people don't make it to heaven?"
You certainly don't want MY explanation. ;O)
Christ paid the price. Thus, if you are redeemed from your sin, then the punishment for your sins was upon Christ and not upon you.
You take away from the work of Christ when you make your salvation or your redemption contingent upon you first being punished for your own sins. The wages of sin is death. The Gift of God is eternal life. It is a gift. It is not something you earn after you have taken your just punishment. If you plan on being punished for your sins, then your punishment is eternal damnation. That is your just punishment.
Purgatory is a damanable heresy designed to take away from the FINISHED work of Christ.
