The purification is described as the fire of purgatory

I understand that bit, what gives me pause is this idea of another place where some measure of perceptible human time is spent, just seems weird to me. In an eternal context there's no reason that purification isn't something that would be relatively immediate

The process of purification is what we're striving for now, in death would be the perfection of purification, beyond the corruption of the flesh

That's your personal philosophy

I think you tend too much towards somehow imagining something that has nothing to do with what we experience right now because of our relation with time

It isn't the purification of an illness, but the purification of the consequences of sin.

And by virtue of having to acknowledge some things, and realise others with our consciousness, I see no reason to believe in a strong way that it's done in a snap of fingers. However, how it works in relation to the time we know, I have no idea

Isn’t it known that souls in purgatory have absolutely no intention of returning to Earth because they’ve seen glory with their own eyes?

The whole point of purgatory is preparation for the glory. I would imagine these thoughts, if any such still occur, would also be lost in the process.

thanks for clearing it up for me my question earlier, guys

im finally back

Heaven and hell also have time though. Only God himself is outside time, so why would it be weird for purgatory to have time?

Time is an aspect of the earth. The new, perfected earth may have time, but heaven is where God dwells, so why would it?

Because humans understand the world through time

if purgatory didnt have time youd never get out

so nigga

it better have time

We have no idea what time is, nor what something being outside time is. But saying something like "dude, you can't say that any experience after we die is anything at all like what we experience now" is madness. There are causes and effects. We will just not run out of time, nor have to experience things with the same temporal perception, I guess

I suppose

I see no reason why God can't take usto a kingdom of glory literally paved in gold and filled with beauty <:gib:550020532746190859>

Just seems weird to me I guess, I've never really heard a solid justification for this whole conceptual in-between plane rooted in anything solid. Heaven and hell make sense, and I know Limbo is another funky one iirc isn't recognized anymore, so it's all a bit confusing

I don't see things as planes. You will experience what God wants you to experience, as needed for purification

Planes are for followers of descartes!

I suppose that's sound

falklands war was two freemason countries fighthing each other

@Deleted User sadly it is, Swiss people have grown weaker in the years no thanks to a progressive Europe pushing them to do so
