Summary

I start with a typical defense of Purgatory from the view of a Roman Catholic. Then I go through the basic Roman Catholic arguments one by one, giving a Protestant response.

ResourcesCouncil of Florence (A.D. 1439) DS 1304

“It has likewise defined, that, if those truly penitent have departed in the love of God, before they have made satisfaction by worthy fruits of penance for sins of commission and omission, the souls of these are cleansed after death by purgatorial punishments; and so that they may be released from punishments of this kind, the suffrages of the living faithful are of advantage to them, namely, the sacrifices of Masses, prayers, and almsgiving, and other works of piety which are customarily performed by the faithful for other faithful, according to the institutions of the church.”
