Ok. I'm all ears, let's discuss this. Present your case using Scripture.
Super busy. Here are the passages and notes that I've put together over the years. I may be wrong in what Purgatory is . . . I'm not a scholar, but more of a Biblical reporter. Here they are:
The first is from the Book of Jubilees. If you don't accept that literature, I get it. No need to argue your point.
Jubil 05:14 - Purgatory -
"And there is nothing in heaven or on earth, or in light or in darkness, or in Sheol or in the depth, or in the place of darkness (which is not judged); and all their judgments are ordained and written and engraved."
1 Sam 28:16-19 - Samuel - NLT -
"But Samuel replied, "Why ask me, since the LORD has left you and has become your enemy? The LORD has done just as he said he would. He has torn the kingdom from you and given it to your rival, David. The LORD has done this to you today because you refused to carry out his fierce anger against the Amalekites. What's more, the LORD will hand you and the army of Israel over to the Philistines tomorrow, and you and your sons will be here with me. The LORD will bring down the entire army of Israel in defeat." - Raised as a spirit, Samuel informs Saul that he and his sons will die the following day and would join him, Samuel, "below" to wait for the Judgment of Christ. - This certainly seems to indicate Purgatory, and it is. People must wait somewhere for Christ to arrive. We realized that it was Hades, the place where Jesus taught for three days, but felt that after placing their faith in Christ, they would then pass on to Heaven. But, 1 Thess 04:13-18 clearly indicate that even post the resurrection of Christ, all must wait until the return of Christ to be gathered up with Him.
Dan 12:02 - Purgatory - NKJV -
"And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, Some to everlasting life, Some to shame [and] everlasting contempt." - This passage seems to clearly indicate Purgatory, as the text says, "Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt." - But, we must remember that this prophecy is no longer about the distant future, but the near future.
1 Thess 04:13-18 - Purgatory - KJV -
"But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words." - Well here it is. The doctrine is pretty difficult to deny, which is that the dead will not immediately cross over from death to life. No, the dead must wait for the return of Christ and they will first be caught up with the Lord, and then the living will be caught up with them.
As I said, I am not a scholar . . . just a reporter of what I read. Kick the ball . . . not the player.
