Greetings Landoverians Baptists,
We already know that Purgatory is in the Bible but it's time to prove it actually exist outside the Bible. Just like the Jew Flavius Josephus proves that Jesus existed outside of the Bible, the jews themselves admits Purgatory exists:
As we can see, the original chosen people are aware of what the afterlife looks like. But it's not over yet! Buddhists as well believe in Purgatory and here is the proof:
And with this we have another crushing victory on Jesus side against the apostate schismatic churches. And right in time to wish everyone an Happy Candlemas.
We already know that Purgatory is in the Bible but it's time to prove it actually exist outside the Bible. Just like the Jew Flavius Josephus proves that Jesus existed outside of the Bible, the jews themselves admits Purgatory exists:
Jews do believe in a purification (a purgation) which takes place after death. When a Jewish person's loved one dies, it is customary to pray on his behalf for eleven months using a prayer known as the mourner's Qaddish (derived from the Hebrew word meaning "holy"). This prayer is used to ask God to hasten the purification of the loved one's soul. The Qaddish is prayed for only eleven months because it is thought to be an insult to imply that the loved one's sins were so severe that he would require a full year of purification.
As we can see, the original chosen people are aware of what the afterlife looks like. But it's not over yet! Buddhists as well believe in Purgatory and here is the proof:
Hell is a realm or state of eternal punishment. Buddhism denies the existence of hell but does teach that there is a purgatorial state (niraya). Purgatory differs from hell in four important ways:
Thus a good Sikh, Jew or Taoist may well have a good rebirth while immoral or evil people who call themselves Buddhist may be reborn in purgatory. Purgatory is one of the six realms of existence one may be reborn into; the others being the human realm, the heaven realm, the realm of animals, of hungry spirits and the realm of jealous spirits. In some of his statements the Buddha indicated that purgatory is an actual location, while in others he seemed to suggest that it is more a state of mind. For example, he said; ‘Fools say that purgatory is under the sea. But I say that purgatory is really a name for painful experience’ (S.IV,206). To the Buddhist, the idea of an endless hell raises yet more doubts about the existence of a God who is supposedly just and loving.
- According to Buddhism no one judges the dead and casts them into purgatory; rather each individual creates a negative destiny for themselves by their negative thoughts and actions in this life, i.e. their kamma.
- Purgatory is not eternal but limited and impermanent like every state. After one’s life-span in purgatory is finished one will be reborn into another state.
- The suffering of purgatory is not a ‘punishment’ as in the theistic conception of hell but, as said before, the result of one’s negatives actions.
- It is not primarily one’s religious beliefs but one’s actions that conditions whether or not one will be reborn in purgatory.

Also I have ADHD, so give me a break about my grammar!
