And here I was thinking that the Christ took care of that. Silly me. Apparently not...Just think, Jesus went thru all that pain and suffering for nothing...
Makes one wonder why Jesus even showed up...If we can pay for our own sins, we sure don't need Jesus...

We can't pay for our own sins. Remember when you busted the neighbors window when you were a kid and you had to mow the lawn for a couple of weeks? The work you were doing couldn't possibly be worth the price of a window, but you still had to do something to pay for your deed.
Purgatory is the same thing. We can't possibly hold the wiegh tof our sins, so Jesus did for us. But you still don't get a free ride.

{{{sigh}}}. It’s just never ending. The Never Ending Story of Salvation through faith and works. No matter the religious affiliation, the words are all the same. Faith + works = salvation. THe only thing that adds up to is an eternity in hell. And that is not finite.
