mavister: Catholic theologians point to Matthew 5:25-26 as the basis for Purgatory. Let us review that Scripture: Another brilliant expose. I wish I had the time to post long treatises like you. These are just the right explanations to the misconceptions being peddled. If me and you have to pay for some sins, how much would we be required to pay? First, it negates the fact that Jesus paid all on the cross and secondly, the penalty contained in scriptures for sin is the death of the soul, not a temporary place of torment. Paying for some sins means we have to taste ETERNAL death. Talking of sins we must pay for, there is a difference between a person's sin and his iniquity which is imputed upon up to third and fourth generations. When sin is regarded as iniquity, generations after continue to pay for it. In the case of David, his sins of blodshedding became iniquity which his children after Solomon had to bear and therefore, the kingship was torn into two and only a part belonged to them. They also suffered many setbacks for the same reason. There are many other such references in the Bible explaining what it means when it says some sins will not be forgiven in this world. But even those iniquities are now covered under the Blood of Jesus for every Christian who knows his rights in Jesus. Keep it coming Bro. You rock! |

One thing i have discovered is that some of this religious fanatics peddling this fallacy on the existence of purgatory know the truth is far fetched from what they are saying. The basis here is that they cant even muster the courage to walk up to their priests for proof on the existence of purgatory and moreso, they have been born in the catholic church and as such, for all their lives have been fed with such dish that anything else from that is lies even when they see it to be the truth. One may ask me why am i bothering my self posting all this? Is he in a bid to win them over to his side? No not at all..like a friend said..serve your God ..let me serve mine.. Am doing all this cause there are many who dont even know where they stand. They dont know what to believe.and if left to this false prophets..they will be misled... Please every one... Lets be wise.. I pray the holy spirit opens the eyes of any one who is still confused..amen shalom |

kingk:Let me go this way. The university were I graduated is an abode of student cultists . Now if for any reason, the cultists had stormed my lodge asking me of my friend whom few minutes ago; ran into my house for safety. I know that telling them where he is will lead to him being severely beaten or even killed. So I lied to them that I've not seen him, they left and he was saved. Notice that I lied to save someone's life. if I die within few minutes and was to be judge by my deed few minute ago, where will I go? Will I go to heaven for saving a life or to hell fo lying. Now this is a sin borne out of compassion to save life,but it doesn't do away with the fact that I sinned therefore to enter heaven, I must be purified for nothing impure, not even one who told a lie will enter heaven. |

A Message for the Catholic Brethren Looking forward to being in Purgatory after Death: [size=16pt]Jesus Paid It All [/size] by: Elvina M. Hall - 1865 (Lyrics) I hear the Savior say, “Thy strength indeed is small; Child of weakness, watch and pray, Find in Me thine all in all.” Refrain: Jesus paid it all, All to Him I owe; Sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow. For nothing good have I Whereby Thy grace to claim; I’ll wash my garments white In the blood of Calv’ry’s Lamb. And now complete in Him, My robe, His righteousness, Close sheltered ’neath His side, I am divinely blest. Lord, now indeed I find Thy pow’r, and Thine alone, Can change the leper’s spots And melt the heart of stone. When from my dying bed My ransomed soul shall rise, “Jesus died my soul to save,” Shall rend the vaulted skies. And when before the throne I stand in Him complete, I’ll lay my trophies down, All down at Jesus’ feet. |

[quote author=Deha] So,what happens after judgement? Remember the Bible said that "NO SIN WILL GO UNPUNISHED" Going by this statement,Moses couldnt have been in heaven then,cuz he disobeyed God and therefore was made unpure..Remember Angel Michaels dispute with the Devil? Remember the Devils contention? How do u think Moses was sanctified? "Nothing impure will enter the Kingdom of God" You think God was joking when He said that? Use ur brain dear child!![/quote]use ur brain too, did moses enta purgatory b4 enterin heaven. |

Sal C: Let me go this way. Thanks for your example BUT I thank God that there's nothing new on the face of this earth. The same as you said was applicable to REHAB THE HARLOT you remember the story Aiit........... Now for we have the spirit of God (christ) in us bearing witness, also at that moment of telling lie as a elect, your spirit is also asking for forgiveness........ At that point bro God sees the Heart cos it's not intentional I must say as REHAB was saved, bro you'll be saved. |
Re: Please Is There Anything Like Purgatory? by SalC: 1:44pm On Nov 05, 2013 |
kingk:Did I hear you say it wasn't intentional? Did I say I was drunk when it happened? |

[size=13pt]1 Peter 1:18-19[/size] Living Bible (TLB) "18 God paid a ransom to save you from the impossible road to heaven which your fathers tried to take, and the ransom he paid was not mere gold or silver as you very well know. 19 But he paid for you with the precious lifeblood of Christ, the sinless, spotless Lamb of God." |

Lady Excellency: Because she is no longer on earth and doesn't possess the omnipresent, omniscient and omnipotent powers to hear your prayer from heaven. Really? 1cor 13:12 " For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known." St. Paul makes it clear here that earthly limitation to his knowledge will cease in heaven as he will be fully united to the all Knowing(Omniscient) God. He will know even as much as he is known! |

Correct me if I'm wrong abeg...but since I've been reading the bible I've never come across these words...purgatory, chaplet. Don't know where those pple got these words from. Do you? Hell I know, Heaven I know, purgatory,I don't. |
Re: Please Is There Anything Like Purgatory? by SalC: 2:27pm On Nov 05, 2013 |
kingk:Notice I did not dispute the fact that I will be saved, but does it do away with the fact that I sinned, and for me to get saved, I needed to be purified of that sin, and that purification is what we call purgation or purgatory as the case may be, this is where we can rightly bring in Heb 12 V 24 which talks about the spirit of good people made perfect. |

Syncan: Ro. 8:13 For if you live according to the sinful nature, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live, Ro. 8:14 because those who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. It is only "by the Spirit" that a person could free himself/herself from sin. The reason why followers of Christ remain imperfect is that they do not now how to free themselves from sin "by the Spirit". Jesus apparently does that for them in Paradise, thereby giving them full redemption. 1Pe. 3:18 For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by the Spirit, 1Pe. 3:19 through whom also he went and preached to the spirits in prison 1Pe. 3:20 who disobeyed long ago when God waited patiently in the days of Noah while the ark was being built. In it only a few people, eight in all, were saved through water, After Jesus Christ died on the cross, He went and preached to spirits in prison through the Spirit; these were spirits of those who died during Noah's flood. What is this prison? Is it Paradise or Hades? Does Jesus still minister to spirits of dead people after His resurrection? There are many spiritual things we do not yet understand. |

six one: At least, you didnt know that. It doesn't make the sin more grevious. What if he leaves immediately and then the decking of our your sitting room collapses exactly where he would have been sitting. Would that make your lie a good thing. People even die from the effects of other people's intention to do good. Would it turn the good to sin? The important thing is the intent, not effect. God is not inconsiderate like you. |
