It’s in Scripture, but you may not have it in your Bible since your Bible is incomplete.

The issue of Purgatory is a false one and is not supported by the New Testament.

8See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, according to the tradition of men, according to the elementary principles of the world, rather than according to Christ. 9For in Him all the fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form,

10and in Him you have been made complete, and He is the head over all rule and authority;

11and in Him you were also circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, in the removal of the body of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ;

12having been buried with Him in baptism, in which you were also raised up with Him through faith in the working of God, who raised Him from the dead.

13When you were dead in your transgressions and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He made you alive together with Him, having forgiven us all our transgressions,

14having canceled out the certificate of debt consisting of decrees against us, which was hostile to us; and He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross.

Colossians 2:8-14 NASB

I guess Catholics are the only “true” Christians, then because only they have the right scripture and the right leader? Where have I heard that before?

Romans 1:20 says no man has an excuse - because God himself will reveal his truth to those that seek Him.

You don't have to belong to the Pope Club (tm) to be a Christian. Sorry.
