If you look up the word purgatory in the Bible you won't find it, do you know why?
Why simply non ecziste purgatory!
God's Word states that without sanctification no one will see God.
Of course, according to the Catholic Church, you need to go to confession ONCE A YEAR!!!
So, following this reasoning, in a year with 365 days, a person can sin for 364 days and on the last day he regrets and everything is fine? Will it be ?
How is a person going to remember all the sins he has committed during the entire year?
REASON MY DEAR !!!
And you need to confess your sins to God by repenting of your sins and accepting Christ's sacrifice on the cross, for He was the one who died for your sins.
It wasn't priest, pastor, apostle, etc who died for you, but Jesus Christ
Many look at the example of the thief on the cross who repented at the last minute and went to heaven thinking that when they are about to die they will be able to accept Christ and save themselves.
That thief on the cross KNEW he was about to die and had the opportunity to repent at the last minute.
BUT YOU DON'T KNOW!!!
If you live in sin thinking that at the last minute you will repent and be saved, YOU ARE FOOLED!!!
Your last hour might be crossing a street, taking a stray bullet, etc.
THERE MAY NO CHANCE OF REPENTANCE!!!
DON'T LIVE ANYWAY!!!
How many live in sin thinking that at any moment they can repent and be saved and indeed this is true.
The problem is if death comes early and catches the person, there is no chance of regret.
That's why you have to live seeking sanctification because you don't know your time!!!
This talk of "I'll regret it later" or "I'm too much of a sinner to go to church" JUST DON'T STICK!!!
If you understood by the examples I showed that YOU CANNOT LEAVE TO REPENT LATER SINCE YOU DON'T KNOW WHEN YOU WILL DIE AND IF YOU DIE WITHOUT CHRIST YOU WILL BE CONDEMNED TO HELL!!!
If you think you are too sinful to go to church know that WE ARE ALL SINNERS BECAUSE THE BIBLE SAYS THAT UNDER HEAVEN THERE IS NO ONE WHO DOES NOT SIN.
The difference is that you WANT to be free from your sins.
It is an INDIVIDUAL AND PERSONAL DECISION.
