You can find a bit of a study Here that deals with the issues of death and eternal judgement (including purgatory)...

Yahweh Shalom...

I personally do not like to be referred to other people's theories and thoughts, especially when I know what is right.

I have also recently written something about God's Name and include it herewith.

The tetragrammaton JHVH or JHWH, the name which the real God is known by, is misrepresented by many different names containing the tetragrammaton JHVH or JHWH. We cannot accept that every name that contains the tetragrammaton JHVH or JHWH, refers to the real God. As we don’t know what God’s real name is, we need to respect that and not give Him a name that He does not like. Everybody on this earth likes his own name and nobody dares to call him some other name. Who are we to give God a name that He may not like. If you take the tetragrammaton JHVH or JHWH and add one to two other speakable vowels ie. ae , ai, ao, au, ay, ei, eo, eu, ey, ia, ie, io, iu, iy, oa, oe, oi, ou, oy, ua, ue, ui, uo, uy, ya, ye, yi, yo, yu etc., you can end up with about 64 000 different names for only one tetragrammaton. We need to be very careful in giving God a name that He does not like as there is only one God and He only has one Name. The fact that there are now two tetragrammatons JHVH and JHWH quoted which makes it a double problem of 128 000 possible names. I would rather stick to God, God the Father or God Almighty than any other term.
