What's the point? We already showed you the references in Sacred Scripture which the Church Fathers said referred to Purgatory and you summarily rejected it.

The church fathers said all kinds of contradictory stuff. Fine. They are human and not inspired nor authoritative. They are just a record of history at the time.

Scripture does not say what was claimed. It isn't close.

Thanks for your other reference at least 100 years after the death of the last apostle.

Does this mean you have nothing before 100 ad?

If you have it, would you please post it?

Did you not read this, from Our Lord Himself?

“That he which speaketh blasphemy against the Holy Ghost, that it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, nor in the world to come." [Matthew 12:32].

The implication is pretty clear. Certainly, that's what Gregory the Great thought.
