I really appreciate your explainers. They are really helpful as an adult convert to Catholicism. I especially liked the clarification about where this falls as a belief, dogma vs private revelation. Thanks!

Please read Catechism of the Catholic Church #1472 and #1473. Part of which reads ..”every sin, even venial, entails an unhealthy attachment to creatures, which must be purified her in earth, or after death called Purgatory.” “The forgiveness of sins and restoration of communion with God entail the remission of eternal punishment of sin, but temporal punishment of sin remains. “

“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.” Let’s pray for this.
