Purgatory is the final cleansing of the soul on it's way to Heaven aster we leave this life. When we leave this life, we have not yet achieved the perfection that is necessary to be admitted into Heaven. Purgatory is the process by which God justifies us after this life.
The doctrine of Purgatory is based on the mercy of God.

Because they want everyone to believe that if you did something for the church then no matter what you'll atleast make it to purgatory, even tho there is no purgatory, or limbo. There is only Heaven and Hell, and the Bible doesn't mention anything else.

The PROTESTants broke from the Catholic Church because they were bleeding money from congregants, saying it would get loved ones out of Purgatory. That doesn't mean it doesn't exist!
Sylvia Brown calls it the Holding Place. SCARED THE SH1T out of me!
The Dark Entities she talks about are the souls of psychos, and
they reincarnate as the BORN psychopaths!

A long time ago the church sold 'indulgences' which included certificates for a certain number of days off the time sinners had to spend in purgatory...

I advise you to take a trip to the Vatican and ask your question. If you come back with a black eye rolling on your cheek, for God sake, do not blame it on me.
