On one leg of my flight to Brazil (BIL to DFW) I sat next to a Roman Catholic friar (I'll withold his name just for his own privacy). He really was a nice young man. We talked theology for the entire flight. I listened to him give his "conversion" story into the RCC and a defense of RC theology (transubstantiation, apostolic succession, praying to saints, immaculate conception, etc). I countered all of his points with scripture and logic. Nothing really seemed to faze him much until he began talking about...Purgatory. He explained Purgatory (as much as such a non-existent place can be explained) and its purpose. When he was done I simply opened my LSB Bible app and had him read Romans 8:1 - "Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." No condemnation. Interestingly, that stumped him. He had no answer for that at all. I shared the Gospel with him and pray that the Truth will prevail upon his heart. Romans 8:1 is a Purgatory killing verse.
