Yes it does! Just spent 3 years in Sharia Law land in the ME (Arabia). Purgatory is an apt description.

Purgatory can best be described as the Bosom of Abraham. This was where Christ went to get those who died before his death who were justified by their faith, but lacked the sufficient work of a perfect sacrifice.

“Purgatory does not exist.”

Biblically, no. But I’m sure it exists in the imaginations of quite a few.

Purgatory was invented by the early church to bring in more treasure. The idea was used to sell indulgences to buy souls out of purgatory and send them on to heaven... Supposedly.

Totally un-scriptural and a complete scam. Anyone who still believes in a purgatory should have their head examined.

“Purgatory does not exist.”
I have been a follower of Dr. Charles Stanley for many years. Every once in awhile, during one of his sermons, he denies the existence of Purgatory and says either Heaven or Hell is the end of the road.
