If anyone’s work is burned, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.— 1 Cor 3:15
For the LORD your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God. — Dt 4:24
For our God is a consuming fire. — Hebrews 12:29
Oh, look: God is a “consuming fire,” when you draw close to him your sins are burned away. Latin theologians called this “purgatory”. Gendron calls it a “fabrication”.

I think I’ll stick with the Bible, thank you very much.

For [human fathers] indeed for a few days chastened us as seemed best to them, but He for our profit, that we may be partakers of His holiness. 11 Now no chastening seems to be joyful for the present, but painful ... — Hebrews 12:10-11

Context context context nares... this is a scripture that is addressing MINISTRIES.. not sin

Your other scriptures are also out of context and have not one thing to do with man purging his sin in Purgatory ..Catholics are clueless about reading scripture.. proof texting fire does not doctrine make

Yep! Just like this!

Isa 6:5 Then said I, Woe [is] me! for I am undone; because I [am] a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts.

Isa 6:6 ¶ Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, [which] he had taken with the tongs from off the altar:

Isa 6:7 And he laid [it] upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin PURGED.

What can wash away my sins,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus...
