Do you really believe purgatory is real?

I mean seriously.

The Bible tells us that nothing unclean can enter Heaven. To die with sin on your soul is to die spiritually unclean. Let's say you are at work one day and you go to the break room to get a coke from the communal store. You reach into your pocket and realize you don't have any change or cash on you. You look around, make sure no one's watching, and you grab a coke with every intention of paying for it the next day.

In the eyes of God, even though you know in your heart of hearts that you're going to come back with money, you've just committed a sin. Now let's say your on your way home from work that afternoon, you get into a car wreck, and you die. You didn't pay for the coke and you hadn't paused to ask God for forgiveness yet. Do you go to Heaven? Or do you go to Hell?

Not that what I or you believe matters....but I believe that unclean souls can't go directly to heaven but can get there with the help of prayers from those of us here on Earth. I don't think God wants anyone to go to Hell and will give the living and dead many chances to prevent it. There has to be some "holding area" for these souls.
