Now I got a question.
What are the Scripture references for something along these lines and if
there isn't one where does this come from? I question this because I have
never heard of anything of the sort except by the Catholics who told of
purgatory, but I found no references to that either in a regular canonized
Bible, not the ones the Catholics use.
