I have much to suffer but gladly to live with Christ. I deserve what I get. God forgive me.
Gregorian Masses in your will my friend.
I'm terrified out of my ' mind day n night as I had a termination of pregnancy god forgive me I have repented but I'm totally destroiged by what I did and the effects of abuse from my own mother
Pray for sufferings in your earthly life to offer them up to shorten your time in purgatory
@@reg8297 Devote yourself to Our Blessed Mother Mary, she will cleanse and fortify you
Same here, but let us not despair. Let's ask St. Mary Magdelene for her intercession--she was once a terrible sinner, but then became one of the Lord's most fervent followers. Let us pray for one another. God be with us and Mary intercede for us.
Please pray for all the souls in purgatory.
Remember you don't have to go there. Purgatory can be avoided. St Therese the little flower spoke about how we can avoid it. God is offended greatly if we assume we will go there. We need to trust more and desire not to go there. Her words were so enlightening about how to avoid it. Check it out for yourself. God bless.
Alot of work, penance, reperation must be done to avoid purgatory. According to our faith, there are some that will attain this perfection. It is attainable 👍🏻
redcandy 45 I, as a drug addict in recovery (5 years from opiate painkillers I) and being divorced (from a rage full man of 25 years who literally screamed at me on a daily basis) have no illusions about Purgatory. I just “assumed “ that because of my past immoral escapades back in my 20s , That that’s where I’m headed EVEN THOUGH today, every day, I lead a chaste, clean and sober lifestyle. Believe me when I say: I’ve atoned for my grievous transgressions BIG TIME-I shrug and say “it is what it is” 🤷♀️I did it to myself; a bit of Purgatory here on earth. (I just thank God I was never arrested and have a clean record!-so far..) walk “the narrow path “ everyday, and it IS my strongest intention to live “in imitation of Christ “ and be aware of my shortcomings; “character defects “ as we say “in the rooms.” God bless you all. Great, inspiring sermon. My biggest shortcomings are lack of patience, and being over sensitive. Any anger I have most usually stems from HURT. I pray for the person I’m annoyed or hurt by , and it does help...sorry for rambling...

Purgatory and hell is different. In hell one is condemned for all eternity, while in purgatory one have a chance to be elevated to purgatory, then to heaven.
Why are these sermons so different from the sermons I have heard over the years at my local churches? Can't recall hearing sermons on hell or purgatory in a long time. We NEED to hear this truth no matter how uncomfortable it is.
That is because it is not the truth!! Be very careful what you listen to. Man brought denomination to combine with salvation. Because man wanted recognition.
There was no denomination in the Bible!! They met in the upper room
Later on they referred to the Church at Antioch. No denomination!!. We are in the last days. The Bible is about Jesus who died for our sins.
@@BobooShippy-qr7jy Jesus + Nothing = Salvation. He paid the price for our sins. Not a priest!! The Bible talks about Him dying for our sins even though He had no sins. It refers to Him as the Lamb because He was the substitute. He was the atonement. And as far as confessing my sins, it is on my knees praying to Him for forgiveness, and then I repent. That means change. The Bible has no church in it with a denomination on it. From the beginning to the end.

@@Ali-ei8po
You believe your way and I will believe mine. The cross only... because of Him sacrificing His blood. It's in the Bible. Your sins nailed to the cross. And all you have to do is ask Him into your life. Repent of your sins is what He requires. It takes faith. Easy. Not a ritual.
please all y'all pray for mercy and conversions/repentance of sinners
I believe in a Church that has been founded by our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ which is the Roman Catholic Church since 33 AD, than a 1500 MAN made Prottie Church started by Martin Luther.
No matter what church it is,,it doesn't matter,,your personal relationship with God is all we need to be save,,
@@vitsunagayoutubevny3779 That's not true. Salvation is based on whether or not your are in a state of sanctifying grace or mortal sin upon death. If you are baptized your actual and original sins are washed away by the Precious Blood of Christ. However, if you commit mortal sins afterwards, you must confess your sins to a validly consecrated priest who acts in persona Christi to get your sins forgiven.
Proof of Confessing Sins to Catholic Priest:
This comes from John 20:23, "Whose sins you shall forgive, they are forgiven them; and whose sins you shall retain, they are retained." Lord Jesus said this to the apostles, who gave authority to those who follow their lineage (the Catholic Church.)
Proof that salvation is not faith alone:
Furthermore, we see in Matt 7:21 "Not every one that saith to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven: but he that doth the will of my Father who is in heaven, he shall enter into the kingdom of heaven." So, just claiming that Jesus is Lord is not enough. In 1 Corinthians 6:9 we hear, "Know you not that the unjust shall not possess the kingdom of God? Do not err: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers." Lord Jesus Himself says that, "But I say to you, that whosoever shall look on a woman to lust after her, hath already committed adultery with her in his heart" in Matt 5:28. So, if you have lusted, you committed adultery, and are in mortal sin and shall not enter into heaven. You can get your sins forgiven if you confess them to a priest (like Jesus says in John 20:23). However, if you die in a state of mortal sin, you will be condemned as 1 Corinthians 6:9 says. Even in James 2:24 we hear, "Do you see that by works a man is justified; and not by faith only?" So, the Protestant heresy of sola fide is clearly wrong. So, having a personal relationship with God (which is necessary), is still not enough. You need to have a personal relationship with God and also be in a state of sanctifying grace. Protestants, like yourself, do not confess sins to priests who were given authority from Jesus, so your sins are retained and unless you convert and confess them, then you will most likely not enter into the kingdom of God (unless the Lord Jesus grants you the gift of a final act of perfect contrition, but you should not risk on matters concerning eternity because there is only one chance.) Considering the fact that you have probably lusted (whether that be fornication, masturbation, or just lustful thoughts) since you have been baptized, you are objectively in a state of mortal sin. So, you need to convert and enter the church through RCIA.
Proof of the Papacy:
So, what church you enters does matter, since the Catholic Church is the only Church given authority by Lord Jesus. In Matt 16:18 -19 we see Jesus say, "And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatsoever thou shalt bind upon earth, it shall be bound also in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose upon earth, it shall be loosed also in heaven." As we see St. Peter is given the unique teaching authority by Lord Jesus. Whatever he teaches will be added or loosened from heaven, which is a Divine Authority. This authority has been passed down generation from generation to the Catholic Church.
In conclusion, the Lord Jesus is calling you to His Holy Catholic Church, outside of which there is no salvation. He wants you to know the truth because He desires the salvation of all people. He knows you are in heresy and has inspired me to send this message for your own good. Now it is up to you whether or not you will answer His call. You can either harden your heart and allow your pride to prevent you from the truth, or you can seek and find His Holy Will.

By offering up our daily pains, frustrations, sorrow, work for the salvation of souls. You are paying down your purgatory. Remember saint Gertrude's prayer heavenly father, I offer you the holy blood of Christ United to the masses said throughout the world today, for all the souls in purgatory, for sinners in the universal church, for those in my own family and in my own home. Christ promised her that one thousand souls will be released from purgatory.
How merciful is Christ our King. God Bless Sensus Fidelum.
How comforting!!!! Thank you!!!!
As bad as Purgatory is, it ends. Damnation in Hell or the lake of flames which is all times as in forever without god.
Oh what a merciful God. Holy Mary, Mother of God , Pray for us.
Pray forall souls in purgatory,Amen
Just from watching this, I feel I will spend some time in Purgatory....I am not an evil person, but I just don't know...I try, but I have my faults.....I have suffered plenty of pain in this life, but if I have to serve in purgatory, to get to heaven, I suppose, that will be my destiny...

Just a quick question, in Luke 23 when Jesus says to the thief on the cross: today you shall be with me in paradise . What is you, re take on this? Did he go to purgatory first and then went to heaven a few hours later?
Mother Angelica said that he purgatory was on the cross itself

Amem! Thank you very much father. Love your sermons of each day. God bless you all.
Why then was purgatory not included in the apostles creed?
100% agree. I always learn, and I need reminders.
Virginia, not every doctrine could have been included in the Apsostles' Creed.
Thank you Father.
a great video your very appreciated
I would like to hope that if im fortunate enough to be worthy of cleansing my soul for god that after all my pain that i could embrace Jesus and say of my Lord for all the cleansing i sufford is a pitance to be able to kneel before my Holy Saviour
Anthony Nicholls By your reply, you're suggesting that Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection was somehow not enough. That's a false doctrine and teaching. Jesus paid it all.
Anthony Nicholls it is true that those in purgatory are destined for heaven, however we should not "hope" to go to purgatory. To do so is a way of saying to God i do not wish to be a good servant.

@@matthewr1900 I challenge you to a debate.

Beautiful sermon. Thank you father.
Thank you father ❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏
Matthew 23:9. "And don't address anyone here on earth as 'Father,' for only God in heaven is your spiritual Father." These are the words of Jesus. He was speaking in a spiritual context, as a Priest cannot be our earthly father. We are, however, called to honor our earthly fathers and mothers.
Thank you Father for this lovely sermon. Praise and glory be to God for His Love and Mercy. Amen !!! Our Lady of the Mountain Carmel, pray for us. Amen!
scapular question: what happens if you mess up on your vows? i.e. you miss a day or two of rosary recital?
God is not some tyrant who would punish you for a rosary misded here and there. As long as your intentions are good . God looks into the heart .
Limbo closed down in 1960 .This was a place where babies who were not baptized were sent to .But it was never mentioned in god’s word.What did Jesus say to the thief on the cross Assuredly this day you will be with me in Paradise ( not purgatory)This thief was a prime candidate for purgatory but purgatory was not in god’s word
Good point, but limbo was never doctrinal teaching, as far as I know, but only pious thought from St. Thomas Aquinas, and probably others. However, purgatory is scriptural and doctrinal. Moreover, how do we justify the fact that souls in purgatory have appeared to people asking for Mass to be celebrated for them and other forms of prayers and penances. Furthermore, different saints have had visions of purgatory.
I personally still believe in Limbo, and actually believed in it long before I became Catholic. We know we can't go to Heaven except by God's grace. We know we get grace by Baptism. So unbaptized babies can't go to Heaven. But they can't go to Hell or Purgatory because they haven't committed any personal sins. So they must go to Limbo, a place of natural happiness where there is no suffering, disease, or sin. The only difference between Limbo and Heaven is that the souls in Limbo never get to see God face to face. In my personal opinion God never lets a baby die unbaptized unless He knows that that baby would grow up to live a bad life and lose his or her soul.
The reason the good thief on the cross did not go to Purgatory is thst Jesus gave him a plenary indulgence.
Thank u father
Why though do we suffer in this life then purgatory either by what we did or others did to us if jesys already paid the price on the cross
I surrender to God's justice.
I am sinner... I admit my sins.... Oh pray for my sins... I don't want to go to hell...
"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness." 1 John 1:9
If purgatory exists, then why did Jesus say to the thief on the cross next to Him: "Amen I say to you today you will be in paradise" in Luke 23:43
In Lord's prayer jesus remindes us to recieve forgiveness we have to forgive no matter how hard and what it may cost....in this wordly life we assume we are not bad as to go to pugatory or to hell...so we often forget to repent and also we justify what we do...but the thief on the right didn't justify what he did and he accepted his suffering not like the left side thief... also we learn from the parable the sinner and the pharasee that sinner is repenting and accepting that he was a sinner while the pharasee was boasting and judging making him self a righteous one. ..when we repent jesus cleansing and purifyng our hearts from stains of sins, guilt, and shame (we become born again With the Holy Spirit)..remember jesus has taught it....that is how we receive the forgiveness ...forgiven soul is no liable to purgatory...Jesus told Mary Magdaleen "sin no more" now she is a saint... Sacramental life and the Holy scripture always make us closer to God...our part is to belive in them and lead our lives accordingly...and to hope and desire the heaven..which very thoughts distract us from the worldly things...souls who dont repent and had not recieved forgiveness before their death need purgatory to be cleansed in order to reach heaven...God is mercy ful and Just... May Holy Spirit pour on you more and more !!!
The theifs sins were erased by those very words .Jesus pardoned him and all his sins that day on the cross.
Are listeners covered also with the dispensation?
Very informative. M
I am married. How can I lead a chaste life?
Is purgatory real? Not according to the Catholic Church. For instance, after reviewing what Catholic writers have said regarding such texts as 2 Maccabees 12:39-45, Matthew 12:32, and 1 Corinthians 3:10-15, the New Catholic Encyclopedia (1967, Vol. XI, p. 1034) acknowledges: “In the final analysis, the Catholic doctrine on purgatory is based on tradition, not Sacred Scripture.” U.S. Catholic, March 1981, p. 7 adds: “The church has relied on tradition to support a middle ground between heaven and hell."
Like hell its not according to the catholic church. The church states many times the reality of purgatory. If it didnt explain why priests offer masses for the souls in purgatory.
@@tomwolak3362 The teaching is not a Scriptural reality. The Church admits it as I have already mentioned. Look it up yourself in The New Catholic Encyclopedia. (1967, Vol. XI, p. 1034)
He states at the start that the Bible teaches on Purgatory but instead of ther Chapter and vesre he quotes the catechism. So Im left with the question,where in the scriptures does it teach of purgatory?
Anthony Cevallos It's implied.
In the Old Testament
Prior to Christ’s Resurrection, all who died went to “hell”; however, the just went to a place in hell referred to as “Abraham’s bosom,” where they would be comforted until the gates of heaven were opened. The parable of the rich man and Lazarus (Lk 16:19-31) indicates that there were two parts of hell. Both Lazarus and the rich man died and went to hell, but Lazarus was comforted in Abraham’s bosom while the rich man was in a place of torment. A great chasm separated the two parts. Christ opened the gates of heaven for those in Abraham’s bosom when he descended into hell after his death.
In 2 Samuel 12:13-18, it states, “David said to Nathan, ‘I have sinned against the Lord.’ And Nathan said to David, ‘The Lord also has put away your sin; you shall not die. Nevertheless, because by this deed you have utterly scorned the Lord, the child that is born to you shall die.’ And the Lord struck the child that Uriah’s wife bore to David, and it became sick…On the seventh day the child died.”
What do we see here? David sins. David realizes he has sinned. David repents. David is forgiven - the Lord “put away” his sin. Yet, David receives punishment for his sin after he has been forgiven - his child dies.
So there is the possibility of punishment for sin even after one has received forgiveness.
Let’s move now to the New Testament. Revelation 21:27 says, “But nothing unclean shall enter it…” This is referring to the New Jerusalem - Heaven.
Nothing unclean - nothing, in other words, with the stain of sin - will enter Heaven.
More Scripture. Hebrews 12:22-23, “But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem...and to a judge who is God of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect…” Notice, it speaks of the “spirits” of just men (who, as Catholics would say, are those that died in a state of grace), who are in Heaven, and who have been “made perfect.”
So there is a way, a process, through which the spirits of the “just” are “made perfect.”
We read 1 Corinthians 3:13-15: “…each man’s work will become manifest; for the Day [judgment day] will disclose it, because it will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test what sort of work each one has done. If the work which any man has built on the foundation [Jesus Christ] survives, he will receive a reward. If any man’s work is burned up, he will suffer loss, though he himself will be saved, but only as through fire.”
Where is this place that a man, after he dies, has his works tested, and could suffer loss, as through fire, but still be saved? Hell? No, once you’re in Hell, you don’t get out. Heaven? No, you don’t suffer loss as through fire in Heaven. It must be somewhere else.
Hence, there is a place, or state of being, other than Heaven or Hell.
To sum up there is the possibility of punishment for sin even after one has received forgiveness. Nothing with the stain of sin will enter Heaven. There is some way, or process, by which the spirits of the just are made perfect. And there is a place besides Heaven or Hell where you can suffer loss, yet still be saved, but only as through fire. We’ve just, in essence, described Purgatory. As a side note you won’t find explicitly the word Purgatory just as you won’t find the word Trinity or Incarnation it’s implied mean to purge, cleans or to purify. God bless
Scripture knows nothing of purgatory. If purgatory were real, Jesus and His apostles would have been very clear about it. Salvation is intentionally simple. Trust in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved. We, as sinners bring nothing to the table regarding our salvation. Jesus did it all.
I Corinthians 3:11-15
For no other foundation can any one lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Now if any one builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble-each man’s work will become manifest; for the Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test what sort of work each one has done. If the work which any man has built on the foundation survives, he will receive a reward. If any man’s work is burned up, he will suffer loss, though he himself will be saved, but only as through fire.
So then the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ is inadequate for redemption? The grace of Jesus Christ is insufficient?
Or is that why there are ghosts?
Marilee Stetson never said that. Just bc He redeemed us doesn’t mean we can go do whatever we want & then tell Him to let us in. Col 1:15 does speak of making up what is lacking in the suffering of Christ. What does that mean?! No Protestant can answer that bc it flies in the face of their warped theology
@@SensusFidelium But there is great variance in Protestant theology ranging from the Catholic-lite of LCMS all the way to Pentecostals and LDS. But while I see support for confession, repentance and the sufficiency of Christ in the KJV, including your reference, I do not see support for a Purgatory unless it is inferred from the White Throne Judgement and the possibility that Nobody is in Heaven yet.
And while all (denominations) acknowledge the existence of angels and demons, none (willingly at least) admit to the existence of ghosts , of which I have seen enough evidence to convince me they are real. Point being, when it comes to the afterlife, we are all just guessing and hoping.
@@SensusFidelium this makes the sacrifice of Jesus mean absolutely nothing then.
When Jesus Died on the Cross He said "It is Finished"
That means all sin has been paid for. You just have to accept it.
First, there are ghosts. Jesus said so in Luke 24:39. Next, the existence of purgatory is not a declaration of the inadequacy of the death and resurrection of Jesus. Rather, it is an extension of His Divine Mercy. His death and resurrection renewed man's access to God and His kingdom which was previously cut off due to the original sin of Adam and Eve. That is what Jesus overcame: eternal death due to sin. However, that doesn't mean that all we need to do is believe this for us to be saved. We CANNOT BE SAVED by FAITH ALONE. That is the heresy of Martin Luther: "sola fide", justification by FAITH ALONE. No. "Faith without works is dead." (James 2:26).
The Bible says that even the just man sins seven times. And that nothing unclean shall enter heaven (Rev 21:27). So what happens if you die with venial sins?
I Corinthians 3:11-15 may well be the most straightforward text in all of Sacred Scripture when it comes to Purgatory:
"For no other foundation can any one lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Now if any one builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble-each man’s work will become manifest; for the Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test what sort of work each one has done. If the work which any man has built on the foundation survives, he will receive a reward. If any man’s work is burned up, he will suffer loss, though he himself will be saved, but only as through fire."
That fire is purgatory- it's a merciful cleansing after physical death like a forge that reshapes our souls into what it was prior to the disfigurement caused by sin. This doesn't apply to unrepented MORTAL sins. That soul goes directly to hell forever.

One of today's Mass readings (Vigil, so more like tomorrow's Mass readings) was about the Publican and The Pharisee.
I listened to two homilies today about how full of himself The Pharisee was.
What is this "a just man sins 7 times a day" are you saying it is impossible to resist sin, so as to not sin at all for days? I disagree, I think I can go longer without sinning and I commit myself henceforth to not sin at all. I make no promises but I will try my best for God and the Blessed Mother whom I both love.
Nobody goes without sin in a 24hour period....
Even priests and nuns fall several times daily. Get off your high horse and stop thinking you dont sin daily' those are the drceptions in which the devil drags souls to hell ' thinking like well I did'nt sin gravely today so theres no need for confession. WRONG .
@@thekingslady1 Exactly . even the most pious Padre Pio fell daily .
Oh no...
I recommend that you read about indulgences. You can get a plenary indulgence that can wipe out all temporal punishment. A plenary indulgence remits sins through the merits of Jesus on the cross and the merits of the saints. The Church offers a plenary indulgence for many different things and partial indulgence you just have to make the intention to gain the plenary indulgence before you say the prayers. For example one rosary is granted a plenary indulgence when said in Church or with family look up the rest of the examples in the official manual for indulgences. you have to satisfy the necessary conditions you have to receive the Holy Eucharist, confession, pray for the Holy Father and his intentions, and be detached from attachment to all sin even venial sin. Even if all these conditions are not met you still receive a partial indulgence this can eliminate a great deal of your purgatory if not all of it depending on whether your attached with the affection for sin. You can offer indulgences for yourself or a deceased loved one. Indulgences are given because it's a humble way on not relying on yourself but on asking for the merits that Jesus Christ won on the cross and the merits of the Saints. Look into indulgence there very important and hardly ever preached about.
I’m scared I don’t want to go here I hope God doesn’t send me to purgatory.
Purgatory is the state where the Holy Spirit purifies people who are saved but who still need to repent of their particular sins.
1 Cor 3:15 - “he himself will be saved, but only as one escaping through the flames.”
Lk 12:59; I tell you, you will never get out until you have paid the very last penny.”
1 Pet 1:7; These have come so that the proven genuineness of your faith-of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire-may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.
Heb 12:6-11 - because the Lord disciplines the one he loves, and he chastens everyone he accepts as his son
Rev 21:27 - nothing unclean shall enter heaven
Heb 12:23 - souls in heaven “having been made perfect.”
Col 1:24 - Now I rejoice in what I am suffering for you, and I fill up in my flesh what is still lacking in regard to Christ’s afflictions, for the sake of his body, which is the church.
The bible verses clearly show a state where souls need to be purified in order to enter Heaven.

Does that mean then no matter what sin u will not
Get out until u pay the last penny
regina hehir Jesus said, “He who has bathed does not need to wash, except for his feet…” (John 13:10) In other words, after baptism, if sin gets our feet dirty, they need to washed either through penance in this life or in Pugatory in the next.

I understand that I guess I'm suffering intense chronic nerve pain last five years so it must be to purify my soul
How did Jesus redeem our sins? The greatest act in His life was His Passion It teaches us that we too must suffer. Pray to God to deliver your suffering.
@dan c what about Rev 21:27 "nothing unclean shall enter heaven" is that for on earth as well? Also I'm fairily ignorant when it comes to specific bible versuses, can you tell me where it says we only get this life as our one opportunity to be purified. I'm really very curious, I just want to understand. Thanks if you get a chance to respond to my random comment!
AMEN!!! Matthew 5 : 25-26 ; 1 Corinthians 3 : 12-15 ; Revelation 21 : 25-27 (just gonna leave this here)
Is it ok if I make objections to these verses?
@@lukasg9031 indeed!!! 😃
Objection to Matthew 5:25-26
First, Jesus is not speaking about a spiritual prison after death but a physical prison before death. The previous verses makes the context clear: “settle with your opponent quickly while in the way to court with him. Otherwise your opponent will hand over you to the judge… and you will be thrown in prison”
To be sure Jesus is not speaking of mere external of things but of the spiritual matters of the heart (21-22). However, nothing in the context warrants the conclusion that he intended the concept of a “prison” to refer to a place (or process) of purgation for sins in the next life, which is what one would have to conclude if this passage is made is made to speak of purgatory. Even orthodox catholic cardinal Ratzinger shy away from the prison image of purgatory, claiming it is not “some kind of supra worldly concentration camp.”
Objection to 1 Corinthians 3:12-15
Here Paul is speaking of believers who will one day be given a “wage” (v. 14) for their service to Christ. The texts say nothing about believers suffering temporal consequences for their sins in purgatory. They are not burned in the fire; only their works are burned. Believers see their works burn but they escape the fire.
In conclusion purgatory seems like it diminishes jesus work on the cross.
Jesus said “it is finished.” To affirm that we must suffer for our own sins is a insult to Christ anointing sacrifice. Jesus died for all sin, not some sin.
GOD bless you, Father! Ave Maria!
Mother Mary help for those souls who are in purgatory 🙏
I realize that your intentions are noble, but there is no evidence that Mary or any other deceased believer can hear us. Scripture instructs us to direct our prayers solely to the the Father and in the name of Jesus. Directing prayer or worship to anyone else, including Angels or Apostles is forbidden.
The Church teaches that Mary and the saints can hear our prayers and pray for us.

Yes me too, I dont like suffering but I would rather purgatory than hell indeed.
if you read your bible cover to cover you might find yourself asking how this brother knows what determines the length of time in purgatory or the intensity of the suffering there or that the smallest pain in purgatory is greater than the greatest pain on earth or that the intensity of the pain increases as purity is approached. that is, if you even believe the place called purgatory exists after reading the whole bible.

Purgatory is not mentioned.
In KJV Bible .
According to that Bible ,this is what the church really is
Acts2:36-42
Catholicism in the KJV Bible do not go together.
& the Scriptures have authority over the catechism.
Psalms 12:6-7
Jesus referred to the man on the cross. "Today you will be with me in paradise". He suffered for your sins. You are not equipped to get youself out of sin. It was totally about the love He left on the cross...His blood. Man can't buy themselves out of hell. Sorry.
The good thief on the cross skipped Purgatory because Jesus gave him a plenary indulgence, the first one ever given.
We cannot buy our way out of Hell. But we can pay a priest a stipend ($10 is typical) and he can say a Mass for a beloved deceased. If you don't have $10 the priest will say a Mass for free.
@@georgepenton808 Jesus paid it all when He laid down His life for your sins!! That blood was His atonement! Man cannot bail a person out of hell!! What are you saying about Jesus?

When is Says lead a chaste life, what about people who are married? Because we have an obligation to honor our husbands. Please let me know. God bless! *JMJ*
Paulina Kray In the case of married people, chastity refers to having no relations outside of the marriage.
tradne85 is right, because chastity is not the same thing as celibacy. Chastity using our sexuality as required by the vocation in which we live out our Christian life. For married folk, chastity means sex only with your spouse (not even with yourself). For priests, chastity means celibacy (no sexual activity at all).
Great! Thanks so much! God bless!
This is absolutly terrifying.
Just my opinion, but I believe this is a fantastic teaching for pleading the blood of Jesus to cover our sins. This of course means that first we would have to acknowledge what our sins are. I do believe this is a problem today where people think they are good, but they are far from good. People justify their wicked behavior and don't even see it as wicked, such a tragedy! Therefore, go to confession, write down your sins before you go, and ask God to bring them to mind so that you can confess them and plead the blood of Jesus over them!. And let's not forget what the church does not teach so much about today but Jesus did, except this website, and that would be reparation! For all these sins against others...horrible bosses, unjust wages paid, gossip ruining reputations, what have we done in reparations or payback for these people that we have harmed so very severely! I'm one of these people and been greatly damaged. I offer these up to the glory of God, but WOE to these self righteous ones.
We are the outcome of Original Sin therefore Purgatory is the answer by grace we hope avoid that too only by grace .Glory be to God Father Son and Holy Spirit Amen.
So Mary is your savior. Check.
Purgatory is a damnedable heresy. We are SAVED by faith in Jesus works not our own. Jesus JUSTIFIES the ungodly. When we go to heaven we receive new bodies. Paul said, Flesh and blood cannot inherit eternal life but that we must put on the imperishable. Then we will be perfected by what God does, not by what we do.
Then what about the people who follow their concience good yet no faith or no idea of jesus??????are they condemned in to hell? THEN will you say God is Just to throw them into hell just because they did not know God ? where are they waiting till the judgement day? Just sleeping?in the parable of the rich man and the poor begger Lasurus we clearly see that rich mans soul is in agony while the begger is with Abrahem..no soul in hell would plead with Abrahem for the living five brothers at his fathers home..for we know a soul in hell only would keep cursing God for they have lost all hope ...So here Jesus clearly have spoken of the Purgatory..where there is hope yet suffering is unbearable...

No limbo. No purgatory. Saved go to heaven. Unsaved go to hell.
You need to read 1 Corinthians 3:13-15 and you will see that there is indeed a Purgatory. And if there isn't a Limbo, where do unbaptized babies go?
@@georgepenton808 unbaptized babies go to Heaven. Any and every baby is innocent. Yes they are born into sin but have no knowledge or concept of doing evil. Jesus wasn't baptized until just before He started His Ministry. There is NO historical evidence to support Jesus being baptised as a baby. Babies getting baptised does nothing for them.
You have to choose for yourself if you wish to follow Jesus in eternal life. A baby does NOT have the brain capacity to choose or understand.
When Jesus was on the Cross the thief Barabas recognized Jesus as the Son of God. Jesus Himself said to him "On this day you will be with me in Paradise"
There is NO historical evidence to prove Barabas was EVER Baptized
Russ Green, unbaptized babies cannot go to Heaven because they don't have grace. Grace comes by Baptism. Jesus was not baptized as an infant because He was Mary's Son and Mary had no original sin so therefore neither did Jesus. Jesus WAS presented in the temple as a baby.
Purgatory is real and Biblical.

The idea that we can do anything in this life or the next to pay for our sins, is blatantly unbiblical. It goes against the very Gospel presented to us in the Bible. "Jesus paid it ALL, ALL to Him I owe. Sin had left a crimson stain, HE washed it white as snow".
Mike Hamlin so you are saying you dont believe in the mercy of our Lord?
Mike, Yes, he washed us white as snow, but we continue to sin every day, do we not? Thus we need continual washing, and if we do not die in a 100% pure state of love, yet love God and want to be with Him, then we need to go through a process of purging, hence purgatory, because we can only enter heaven in a perfect state of love in our hearts. Pretty difficult to do while alive on earth, is it not?
@@st.michaelthearchangel7774 You aren't correct. This is false teaching. What the catholic church proposes is that God isn't enough to forgive and Jesus sacrifice of blood isn't enough either. If the Blood of Christ isn't enough to cleanse me then what is? Certainly not a "purging fire"
This takes away from the true Power and Glory of God.
Your teaching is not only false but it is BLASPHEMOUS.

@@BlackAdder1970 you are using a protestant view of Catholic teaching. Your protestant bible didn't have the book of maccabees in it as it was taken out by heretics like Luther Calvin henry etc. Why do protestants get into Catholic discussions ?

Isn't that what you are doing? Protesting ?
Purgatory does not exist.
Reason 1. It is not in mentioned by name or its concept anywhere in the Old or New Testaments.
Reason 2. Its very concept is in direct opposition to the Gospel itself. God's plan for humanities redemption was to send His Son for a propitiation for sins by dying on a cross. This pays for sin and infuses righteousness to the believer. It is the gift of God, to be received by faith. Purgatory means that Christ's work does not adequately defeat sin and death, but only partially. And it is on you to make atonement.
The devil is a believer too, it takes far more than belief.
And I would recommend rereading the sermon on the mount "to the last farthing is paid"
As well as the book of macabees
I guess if you spank your kids, you might think Purgatory is a must, but with children, both as a parent and a teacher, I did find that a short talk and a promise to behave were sufficient, in fact superior, to punishment as a remedy. Justice and punishment are our thing. Mercy and forgiveness are God's. I am not saying there is no purgatory, just that I am not sure that punishment is the Answer we think it is.
chateaumojo Dear sir /madam i agree and in no way question yout opinion but may i say that as a Catholic i must put all faith and trust in God and if he so desires that i/we require cleansing then i/should not doubt him
Yes, whatever God has going is acceptable in every way. I just don't see how punishment is necessary.
Chateumojo can I suggest that you omitted Justice. God is also Just as well as love, mercy and forgiveness.
What passes for judgement amongst us on Earth is more what I'd call revenge. I am not sure what God regards as justice, but I am pretty sure we would be surprised. When families of murder victims ask for justice, they mean revenge, for example. The price cannot BE repaid. Only God can do that.
@@chateaumojo Friend may I suggest you read Hebrews 12:5-11.
Ok I’m trying to understand the catholic faith coming from a Protestant back ground and have concluded that 99% of the negative views on the catholic faith is a misunderstanding of misinformation. But I cannot wrap my mind around the concept of purgatory. In short Jesus came and died for our sins. God looks down and doesn’t see us he sees Jesus carrying our sin. Even if that is a false teaching, Jesus did die for our sins. You’re patently staying that Jesus’s death wasn’t good enough. That the sacrifice of Christ was not good enough for our sins. I’ve accepted and agreed that Mary shall be respected, do not believe she is the queen of Heaven, but she is important to the scripture. I’ve come to agree that Jesus did tell the disciples that they are the rock and to go out and “do what I do” giving them permission to forgive, heal, teach. I haven’t gotten to the point of praying to them yet because Jesus is the son of man. He’s not taking messages. The apostles aren’t his middle men. They were used to spread the gospel and are the foundation of the church. Respects given. And I do believe strongly that most Protestants don’t believe, in outside sources of information. Protestants seem to say the the Bible is the only God sent text. I think the Catholics call it like a dagma or something. I’m not sure. But this concept of purgatory stating that you will be punished for your sins, to be cleansed before entering heaven, makes sense. It really does. But by saying so you’re discrediting the purpose of Jesus’s sacrifice. Someone please @ me and TEACH me so that I can make a valid opinion on this
Wow...You are waiting 2 mos for someone to answer you, that's a shame!!...Get a copy of Catechism of the Catholic Church by Father John Hardon and Pope John Paul 2...It is thoroughly explained by Sacred Oral, Sacred Scripture and the Teachings of the Bishops past and present (Teaching Office)...God Bless....
Best advise to you. Stay AEAY FROM the catholic church.
They brainwash you to believe what they want.
To say that the sacrifice of Christ's blood isn't enough to cleanse you. That's BLASPHEMOUS
Derek, you seem to me to be a sincere seeker of truth. Keep praying and investigating. May God bless you.
There is nothing in the bible that says it's the only way to know God or His church. Many things are not in the bible that are true.
@@BlackAdder1970 You just gave souldamning advice, the worst advise ever. The only way to Heaven is to be a Catholic. The Bible SPECIFICALLY teaches that there was lacking in Christs sacrifice which is exactly why Jesus said to OBEY THE COMMANDMENTS.
You just accused the Bible of being "blasphemous"
Sometimes I feel like I'm in purgatory but it may not be the way Christian's subscribe I think they is just talking about Hades or is purgatory is another location in Hades for people who don't deserve to go to hell( the lowest part of Hades); or heaven ??????
No such thing, when we die there r levels. Our own sins determine our level, prayers from others and the ability to forgive yourself helps u rise to higher levels. Example: someone like Hitler will remain in darkness forever due to his evil deeds and his inability to forgive himself for what he did. U can't hide from your own heart or the terrible things you've done, it all boils down to being a decent and caring person. Our god is loving and forgiving, he doesn't judge us, in the end we judge ourselves.
Well you dont care about other peoples feelings, that shows what a "loving person" you are (sarcasm)
IF you actually CARE ABOUT TRUTH, I challenge you to a debate.
Purgatory is a figment of the Catholic Church's imagination.
The work for which Jesus came into our human life was to "make atonement for the sins of the people" ( Heb 2:17 ) and this he did when "he sacrificed for their sins once for all when he offered himself" ( 7:27 ). Hebrews develops this theme in detail, showing the death of Christ to be the fulfillment and the replacement of the sacrifices of Old Testament times. When in the different strands of New Testament testimony we have reference to the "blood" of Christ, that word speaks of his sacrificial death (e.g., Rom 5:9 ; Eph 1:7 ; 2:13 ; Col 1:20 ; 1 Peter 1:2 ; 1 John 1:7 ; 5:6 ; Rev 1:5 ; 5:9 ). Paul penetrates more deeply into the meaning of that sacrificial death as he speaks of it "as a sacrifice of atonement" ("as a propitiation" KJV), since, because Christ bore our sins, there was no longer the "passing over of sins, " but in what Christ did on the cross, God is shown to be "just and the one who justifies" those who have faith in Jesus. Human sins are not just swept aside as inconsequential; God's justice is shown in that they are borne by the sinless Son of God, and because they are borne, those who have faith in him are justified ( Rom 3:24-26 ). The same language of "propitiation" is used in 1jo 2:2 and 4:10.We have noticed the place that Hebrews gives to the understanding of the sacrifice of Christ as making possible the making of a new covenant, a personal relationship with God based on forgiveness. This is an understanding that goes back to Jesus himself, in particular, to the way that he spoke at his institution of the Lord's Supper: "This is my blood of the covenant which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins" ( Matt 26:28 ; cf. Mark 14:24 ; Luke 22:20 ; 1 Col 11:25 ; Heb 13:20 ).
The question to you is if Christ died as a one time sacrifice for the sins of all humanity, and the Father forgave all sins, ones that had already occurred before Christ, those sins that were occurring when Christ died, and all future sins to occur, then why would anyone go to Purgatory?? ALL Sin had been forgiven by God the Father. Why this additional punishment of man in Purgatory? Christ sacrifice wasn't good enough? What an insult to Christ!
Ask a Priest to quote you any scripture that points to Purgatory. There isn't any. In fact the two often quoted passages by Priests are in fact refuted in the Catholic New American Bible.
Get a Bible if you don't already have one. The New American Bible(Catholic) is an excellent study Bible. It is important that you understand the Written Word of God. It is the only reference we have that was written through the Holy Spirit and was to be a guide for the Church and congregants.
Keep telling yourself this Tom...You held up against all Eternity should compel you to do the most rigorous practice, not crossing your fingers with private interpretation misinformation formulated as opposing policy of the already existing Theology of the Church the first 1500 years of Universal Christianity...What an insult to Christ it is that you are assuming that protestants were the recipients of transferred Authority in the early 1600's...The RCC for the past 2000 years interprets and establishes Dogma based on Sacred ORAL Tradition spoken by the Early Church Fathers and the Teaching Office of the Bishops, who BTW produced the New Testaments by Catholics, for Catholics and for People who want to become Catholic...

Tom, do you really think Jesus' death on the cross goves you a license to sin?
It's sad when you believe a heretic called Martin Luther. You want Bible verses? Here they are:
In II Maccabees 12:39-46, we discover Judas Maccabeus and members of his Jewish military forces collecting the bodies of some fallen comrades who had been killed in battle. When they discovered these men were carrying “sacred tokens of the idols of Jamnia, which the law forbids the Jews to wear” (vs. 40), Judas and his companions discerned they had died as a punishment for sin. Therefore, Judas and his men “turned to prayer beseeching that the sin which had been committed might be wholly blotted out… He also took up a collection… and sent it to Jerusalem to provide for a sin offering. In doing this he acted very well and honorably… Therefore he made atonement for the dead, that they might be delivered from their sin.”
In Matthew 5:24-25, Jesus is even more explicit about Purgatory.
Make friends quickly with your accuser, while you are going with him to court, lest your accuser hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the guard, and you be put in prison; truly I say to you, you will never get out till you have paid the last penny (Matthew 5:25-26).
I Corinthians 3:11-15 may well be the most straightforward text in all of Sacred Scripture when it comes to Purgatory:
For no other foundation can any one lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Now if any one builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble-each man’s work will become manifest; for the Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test what sort of work each one has done. If the work which any man has built on the foundation survives, he will receive a reward. If any man’s work is burned up, he will suffer loss, though he himself will be saved, but only as through fire.
Purgatory says that Christ failed on the cross what a terrible lie that Satan has deceived people with this false doctrine of purgatory. Don't believe the lies of the Roman Catholic church. Put your trust in Jesus Christ who paid the price for all your sin Jesus is our purgatory it is not a place that we go to to purge our sins believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved acts 16.
JOSEPH DUNNE you do NOT know what the Bible teaches. The BIBLE TEACHES PURGATORY.

Grieve not for the just man who has died because he is at peace? Purgatory doesn't sound like their at peace from this description. Puragatory is real it just doesn't sound like biblical teaching not to grieve for the just.

I don't believe in your false teaching. Its unbiblical.

There is no purgatory No one goes there that is man made by Augustine in the Catholic Church
Purgatory is a Catholic Church penalty for people that have sin on their souls if you are living now you must pray them out of this place that the Church has created There is only heaven and hell. One day you may find this out. I hope that you believe in Jesus Christ and walk in His ways. Because that is your only solution.
Take your disruptive children outside so people can hear! There I said what everyone wanted to.
Are you Catholic at all???
You can not take away Sin or lniquity or transgressions after you have died, you must Repent before you die ask for forgiveness and change your evil mind and Jesus will cleanse your Sins and help you to see that life is more than todays pleasures of these Worldly things*¤*! Purgatory is Not going to cleanse your Eternal Soul*¤*!
So, if you believe in Jesus but die in grave sins where will you end up in? In order to enter heaven you must be 100% holy. Don't give me that typical "Believe in Jesus and you will be saved" rethoric. To believe in Jesus does not mean you just utter it in your mouth. Satans also believe in Jesus. They even know the old testaments when they tempted Jesus. Are they saved then? Judas also believed in Jesus eventhough he betrayed him for whatever reasons. Many disciples who believed in Jesus but left him in John :6:66. Once saved always saved right?

Read Luke 12:35-48. Identify the 4 types of servants and the reward/punishment for each type of servant. Which type of servant do you belong to now? Will you be the same servant the rest of your life? Thats the challenge. When we die, what kind of servant each of us is gonna be? We dont know. But I hope not be the unfaithful one that is cast down to gehana. I want to be the faithful one so I can see Jesus face to face. If I fall between the two then I hope I get the light, not the severe, punishment and be purified before I am allowed to see Jesus face to face.

Moses died on the mount. Yet Jesus met Moses (and Eli) during His transfiguration. Did Jesus commit a great sin talking to a dead person? Is Moses dead? Is he a saint? You decide. If Eli and Moses can talk to Jesus and thus God the Father, can he not pray for us if we ask them? Do they not care about us who are fighting against daily evils on earth? Would the Apostles just fold their hands ignoring what they had preached on earth to save us in tge first place? Would Mary, the theotokos, the mother of Jesus, just keep silent and not ask Jesus his mercy on us? No? How do you know? Do you ask your mom, dad, bros, sis, friends and others to pray for you? For your health, job, econ, fam, etc, etc? Why? Why ask them if you can ask God directly? Because they are alive human beings? Because the saints, Mary, Moses are dead? Funny. Who are more alive? Those already able to face and talk to Jesus in heaven or us on earth who aim to see and talk to Jesus when we die? Which one more ALIVE? WHAT is Dead and Not Dead?
J.M ***Just to Mention JM Believers in Christ Jesus do Not need to ask anyone Saint,or Pope or any one to pray for us (Mart**28:18**) because all was put in the Authority of the Son of Man**Jesus** and the Power he has is more than any Saint or Even Mary the mother of Jesus, He is the Christ the Saviour, To know Jesus is to Walk daily in him and keep his Commandments***

Purgatory is a dangerous doctrine that makes the Cross of Christ insufficient by requiring the person to undergo suffering in order to be made worthy of being with God. This is a false teaching and is to be avoided. We are justified by faith (Rom. 5:1)--not by faith and works (Rom. 3:28). Jesus bore all our sins (1 Pet. 2:24). There are no sins left for purgatory to cleanse because it was all done by Jesus on the cross. This is why Jesus said, "It is finished!" (John 19:30).
So all of you, think about it!

You may spend more time in Purgatory for spreading lies. It is part of Divine Justice.
May I ask, after you died where will you go?
Then, how can you be save?

What does it mean so
In the bible where it says I tell you you will not get out until u pay the last penny
Just a quick question, in Luke 23 when Jesus says to the thief on the cross: today you shall be with me in paradise . What is you, re take on this? Did he go to purgatory first and then went to heaven a few hours later?
Yes this is why im confuse about Purgatory is it ture or false bekos the thief went to Paradise with Jlesus according to the bible..well i dnt blane any believer i love all but this is why am confuse too..when i try to fine the answer many question comes as even in the Scripture,idk why..
It could be that he died in a state of perfect contrition for his sins and received baptism of desire, so he didnt go to purgatory but idk
@@bruhidk3069 Isn,t baptism of desire considerd to be herresy? Maybe his resurected body got baptized, however I am not a priest so I won,t make conclussions.
