Interesting article, but predictable in a sense. It does not surprise me that the true Scriptual argument against purgatory is not mentioned in the article. It is found in Hebrews 10:10, which is quite clear that the sacrifice of Jesus Christ is enough to save.

By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. (KJV)

Apocryphal reference to a purgatory nothwithstanding, Paul's words concerning judgment do not mention a purgatory. To my Catholic brothers and sisters in Christ, I simply say this: either the sacrifice of Jesus Christ is enough to save us from our sin or it is not. If it is, there's no need for purgatory. If it's not, it is a sin to claim him as Savior.

May the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ delight to bless and be with you all.

If you read the thread, you will understand that it is precisely the offering of the blood of Jesus once at the Golgotha that made the purgatory available to us.

In fact, Hebrews 10:10 is not a bad place to start an article explaining the Purgatory.
