There is no “Purgatory.”
When he gathers his bride on the Day of Trumpets, they will immediately be present with him on the “Sea of Glass mingled with fire” for the wedding feast.
They will then return with him to Earth to rule with him for 1000 years.

The evidence from the New Testament simply does not support the existence of purgatory.... In fact, the Biblical doctrine of Salvation eliminates the need for any for any type purgatory.
Jesus’ work on the cross (His blood) purifies us from ‘all’ sin... For this reason, there isn’t a lingering sin problem requiring the existence of a place like purgatory....believers will not be subjected to the continuing wrath of God; they have been justified in spite of their sinfulness.
The Bible tells us WITH CERTAINTY we cannot earn our salvation with good works because Jesus’ death on the cross paid for all our sin... Jesus purged us from our impurity, and He doesn’t need any additional help from us....
When we are united with God, we will not suffer God’s wrath if we have accepted the ‘free’ gift of Salvation through Christ; we will join God the moment we die, and the ‘finishing work of Jesus’ will be more than sufficient to ‘guarantee’ our place at the table.
