>>If you think your church or your religion or some time in the mythical place called purgatory will save you - STOP and consider your end now! Without the assurance of salvation in Christ Jesus your end will be terrible.<<

>>>Where did you read that Catholics believe Purgatory saves them?

1) are you a Roman Catholic?

2) If you are a RC, are you saying Purgatory is not necessary, that those who belong to Christ can go straight to heaven?

Yes, I am Roman Catholic and yes, even our church says that if you belong to another church, you will not be denied salvation

Now, I’m I going to do some Purgatory time, I hope so. It means that I am saved but have to pay for the things I can’t repay,

Here’s what I tell my kids..

One day a father was trying to help his son overcome lying. He told the child to put one nail in a fence for every time he lies. The boy did it but soon saw how often it happened. He was sorry and repented. Soon the thought before he spoke and was lying no more.

He came to his dad and said, “Look! I haven’t put a nail there in days!”

The dad hugged him and said, “Now every time you avoid lying, take out one nail.”

The boy did and soon all the nails were gone. He stood before the fence and smiled at his father.

“How are you going to fix the holes, Son?”

That is what Purgatory is for. Not the sins, we’ve been forgiven of the sins, but for that which we can make up. The damage done.
