So what?
Nothing you have stated addresses the issue that Scripture, itself, seems to support the idea that there is a Purgatory.
Nothing you have posted proves anything at all, or disproves anything at all.
Those in Purgatory are NOT in hell, therefore, they have been “saved” (From HELL!) -— They just are not ready for Heaven.
Besides the fact that your citations do not disprove Purgatory, or even address the subject, something else must be noted:
If you wanted to make the point that someone who followed ALL of the Commandments, yet did not believe in God, would not go to Heaven, how would you make that point, and what language would you use?
Why would God not clearly tell us of a place like purgatory if it really existed, especially since it contradicts so much of the Bible?
Purgatory is fiction. And its deceitful declaration should tell you how the RCC operates.
I was replying to your response to NOSTERREX when he/she quoted scripture concerning being justified by faith alone. You said to him/her:
Again, your “faith alone” quote is twisted.
Martin Luther, and the King James Bible, both did a terrible job on that particular verse, and they did an even worse job in the interpretation of their poorly translated version.
Martin Luther decided what he wanted, and then wrote a Bible to support his views
I quoted the exact scripture text, no commentary added, from three sources - NIV, KJV and the ever-only, infallible Douay-Rheims. I don't see much difference.
