Dalcent, I Googled Catholic sources for Luke 23:43. Here’s what I found. http://www.catholic.com/library/Purgatory.asp and, CCC: 1472: “..A conversion which proceeds from a fervent charity can attain the complete purification of the sinner in such a way that no punishment would remain." The NT indicates a third place, neither heaven nor hell, a place where Jesus went to preach the Gospel after the resurrection (1 Peter 4.6). Also, in the story of Lazarus and the poor man (Luke 16:19-31) Jesus describes “Abraham’s bosom” as a place far more congenial than where the rich man abides in agony. Scripture indicates Abraham’s bosom, not Heaven, as the Paradise where Jesus dined with the thief. Colin |

Thanks Colin, I am not sure what I believe about purgatory. If it even exists! Ultimately I am a man with very Eastern Orthodox theology in a Catholic setting. Of course, the Eastern Church Fathers were part of the Catholic Church before the great schism. I'm certainly not a person who claims to know everything nor would I say I've formed my 'mature theology'. Regards Steve |
