We are saved already...And because we are saved God will help us grow to understand his love for us...
You do know that the Catholic Church teaches that all the souls in Purgatory are already saved by the merits of Jesus Christ and are just awaiting their final sanctification, do you not?
Guess that why non Catholic Christians don't go to purgatory...
1Co_6:11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
Heb_10:10 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
Heb_10:14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.
I have no choice but to believe God instead of your religion...
