Where is the Biblical reference to justify the existence of purgatory? (not the ski resort for the slow minded trolls)?

From the Catholic, Orthodox and Protestant New Testament (which is all the same)

Matthew 5:24-25

I Corinthians 3:11-15

Matthew 12:32

From the Old Testament/Tanak

Habbukuk 1:13

2 Chronicles 6:30

2 Maccabees, when read, by western protestants, as an historical record of Jewish customs and beliefs in the inter-testamental period, shows a belief in some form of purgatory before Jesus was born

"purgatory" was "manufactured" by the Roman church, from Luke 16:19-31, as a way to extract money from the still living relatives or friends to "buy" their "second chance" into heaven.

"Purgatory" is a lie of the catholic cult, and it is an insult to the Lord Jesus Christ. Because Jesus paid for our sins in full. No "purgatory" or any other "cleansing" is necessary. Catholicism leads to hell.

I'm a saved believer in JESUS, going to heaven! :D

There isn't one. Purgatory was made up in 1300 from Dante's Inferno, for the sloe purpose of suckering money out of people.

From memory, aside from some of the passages in the Deuterocanonicals, there are some inferences within the rest of the OT, and some of the NT. Here is one that I like to use (1 Cor. 3:12-15):

"If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw. For no one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. If what he has built survives, he will receive a reward. If it is burned up, he will suffer loss. He himself will be saved, but only as if through the flames."

Paul references a fiery purge depending on how you have built up your soul in this life. Notice that he is not talking about Hell because he says that the weaker foundation will still be saved, but only after the fire.

Luther dealt Christianity a serious blow when he removed seven books from the Bible on his own authority and in violation of the prohibition against tampering with Scripture. SEVEN books which had been part of the Bible canon for 1200 years, leaving Protestants unaware of their content and causing most of their anti Catholic sentiment.

One of the differences between Catholics and Protestants, Catholics have 7 more books in the Catholic bible than Protestant bibles (KJV). That is where purgatory is found, in those 7 books (the Book of Maccabees). So in a sense Protestants are right when they say Purgatory is not in the Bible because it's not in their incomplete bibles. Catholic bible is only original complete bible

Purgatory is in Book of Maccabees (which is in Catholic bibles but not Protestant bibles)

It is an invention of the Roman Catholic Paedophile Ring.

If someone dies, and they were baptised and all the rest of it, then they are supposed to go to heaven. But if they are not baptised in to the Paedophile Cult, then they will go to purgatory where they will be forever in Limbo.

But, and this is the BRILLIANT part. For a fee, the Paedophile Grooming Gang Members will PRAY YOUR LOVED ONE TO HEAVEN.

Nowhere.

There is a passage in their Apocrypha that they claim supports the false teaching. However, when you consider that the RCC tells people that if they give money to the church, it will lessen purgatory for their loved ones who have died, it's easy to see what the teaching is really all about.

There is no explicit reference to purgatory in the Bible.

Some point to Revelation 21:27 mentioning that "nothing unclean" can enter Heaven and since we are all sinners there must be some "refining" post death but that is merely conjucture.

Nothing in the Bible specifically supports the existence of purgatory.
