Scriptural evidence for Purgatory is weak, if non-existent. On the other hand, Roman Catholic tradition, a source of authority, teaches Purgatory. This is an interesting problem.
No it isnt weak if you are using a Bible that hasnt been tampered with. I have a complete Bible. Most protastants use a bible that has had 7 books removed by Luther. The Catholic does have authority. The Catholic has 2000 years of history with a strong foundation.
@truthisbetter yeah the catholic bible has 75 books while protestants have a 66 book bible, also how can people deny purgotory? how do you explain ghosts, easy they are souls in purgotory.
Be it known unto you therefore, men [and] brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins: And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses. (Acts 13:38-39)
THE BIBLE AND THE CHURCH PROVES THAT PURGATORY EXIST! ITS ONLY UP TO US TO BELIEVE.
By the way... its our responsibility to pray for them ALWAYS because god said.... whoever provides care to my little children... you did it to me! if you do not pray for them, you also will be in purgatory when you die. because its our responsibility
oh no I understand perfectly. I knew about these verses for some time now. I just happened to come across this video right after the whole debate, so I kinda thought it was a funny coinicidence. I don't know how they can say that catholics made up Purgatory when Jews tesitfy a belief in such a place since the times of Christ. It makes me so angry when people call themselves christians and yet they bash other religions and deny any evidence that contradicts their beleifs.
well i did send you a pm (hope it isnt overwhelming i think im going to put it in my description box). first the Catholics did not make it up..they may have set it doctrine...like they did the Trinity in the 300sAD but that doesnt mean that it hasnt been taught before it was set as a doctrine...how we know this is through the Early Church Fathers..it is funny how these people refuse to accept certain doctrines of ours and accept others like Trinity and baptism..
and it still amazes me how even the church fathers spoke of the immaculate conception, the papacy, tradition, and other catholic dogmas before the Bible was compiled 300 yrs. after Christ's death (33 A.D.). It still amazes me how they can say the church was created some 1,700 yrs. ago when clearly writigns dating back 2,000 yrs. evidently prove that a catholic church had already existed. Like I said, it makes me so angry when they deny any evidence that prooves them wrong.
what is more funny than that is when they start saying "the bible says this and that"...and they put all their faith in the Bible...when I ask them "How do you know that the bible you have is inspired? who announced it to be the Word of God?" they say "the bible says so"...I then say "well the koran says so too and the book of mormon are you saying that you will believe any book that says so?" or when i ask them to prove to me that scripture alone can stand alone...they cant do either
Many denominations think just because they except Our Lord Jesus as saviour that will automatically grant them entrance in heaven, and that's not correct Only pure clean souls can enter heaven. Purgatory is place created by God's infinite LOVE
The BIble says that "God loved the world so much that he gave his only son so that whoever believes in him will not perrish but have eternal life" John 3:16.....probly the most know verse in the whole Bible, but it would sujest (from my point of view) that a person needs only to accept Jesus as saviour and that is good enough to automatically grant them entrance in heaven. Thoughts?
there is some flaws in your statement. this is not true for I have backed up what I said in the video. The bible also says this: not everyone saying "lord, lord" will inherit, it also says those who perserve to the end will be saved...it also says those thinking they are secure, may fall.. it also says describes sharers in the Holy Spirit who then fall away..it also says nothing defiled enters Heaven, it also says if sin AFTER receiving truth, judgement remains. You need more than belief.
I have verses in my video...can you not see the verses in my video?
mt. 7;21, Mt. 24;13, 1 cor 10;11-12, Hb 6;4-6,Heb. 10;26-27...it also says remain in his kindness or you will be cut off Rom 11;22..you need more than just "faith" heck satan has faith and believes in Christ...you need faith and works. you are NOT gaurenteed salvation just by believing. nothing unclean enters Heaven Rev. 21;27. it also says you will not be released until paid last penny Mt. 5;26...Purgatory is nothing bad
No it isn't on my channel but thanks for the idea. I will put it up in my favorites so others can see it. It was from Happy ? I forgot his last youtube name now. Anyway God Bless
16May the Lord show mercy to the household of Onesiphorus, because he often refreshed me and was not ashamed of my chains. 17On the contrary, when he was in Rome, he searched hard for me until he found me. 18May the Lord grant that he will find mercy from the Lord on that day! You know very well in how many ways he helped me in Ephesus.
Um... where does it say he's dead?
Also cross reference 1 Pet. 3:19 with Isa. 61:1 and Eph. 2:1, 2.
I agree...however I know im a sinner...and i do go to confession regularly but im not perfect...i know i will probably be in purgatory for a long time (in human time that is)...That is why I pray for the souls (NOT TO BUT FOR) in purgatory so when they enter Heaven they can pray for me...
On the feast of the three kings, following the death of my maternal grandfather, my mother had a dream of him caring for plants in Heaven (he was a farmer). She thought hey its just a dream.
On the feast of the three kings, following the death of my maternal grandmother, my mother had a dream about her. She was in grey smoky or foggy place, dressed in grey. Then all of a sudden she was in a brilliantly white place & her clothing became white. Some dream.
The Catholics believe in Purgatory. And the Apostles believed in Purgatory and the Early Church fathers believed in Pugatory...the Church believes in Purgatory and I believe in Purgatory...but for my videos im sticking with scripture. Thank you though...
And I too will stick with Scripture; consider the words of the Apostle Paul.
But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness."
2 Corinthians 12:9
For what is grace if there is purgatory? My friend, I pray that the Lord fills you with His grace, for then you will know that His death is sufficient. And when you have faith in this you shall live because "...the just shall live faith." - Romans 1:17
there is God's grace but when one sins you are out of God's grace and imperfect...dont ignore all the other scriptures to fit that there is no purgatory..Paul is telling how to live..there is times when you can miss purgatory and go to Heaven but you have to be in God's grace without sin but if a person dies without repenting but the sin isnt mortal..that person will have to go to purgatory because NOTHING AT ALL can be defiled entering heaven..
Is hades the purgatory itself?
bartytarsIar 1 year ago
@bartytarsIar: No, Purgatory is apart of Heaven. If you are in Purgatory then you are officially saved. Once you are in Hell then you have no hope...

Thanks for the video truthisbetter. I fully believe in Purgatory as a Catholic. It seems logical (and scriptural).
I particularly like the imagery (hoping I won't see it firsthand) described in Dante's Purgatorio.
