The Biblical Basis for Purgatory

The Biblical Basis for Purgatory

Jesus taught us about it and for centuries the Church has faithfully defined and defended it. Protestants deny it even exists, while many Catholics fundamentally misunderstand it. It is Purgatory: that condition of purifying penance where souls saved by Christ are made perfect and acceptable to spend life eternal in heaven.

In The Biblical Basis for Purgatory, author and apologist John Salza (author of Why Catholics Cannot Be Masons) offers the definitive scriptural explanation of this distinctively Catholic doctrine. Building on the teachings of Christ and St. Paul, he shows how the existence of a condition of temporal punishment after death is not only a logical extension of what we know about the reality of sin and God's justice but is also a supreme expression of God's love and mercy.

Although Purgatory is an encounter with mercy, its pains are real and they are severe. This book does more than defend and explain Purgatory; it provides a solid plan, drawn from the Church's perennial wisdom for conquering our sins by God s grace while still on earth.
