Jerry’s Journal

Purgatory – it is, at least to some, a strange, mysterious, and misunderstood word. Some have thought that

after our physical death we “go” to Purgatory. It’s viewed by many to be like an airport where we must

deboard and catch a connecting flight in order to arrive at our ultimate destination. What exactly does the

Catholic Church teach regarding Purgatory?

To begin with, let’s look at the word Purgatory. The word is rooted in an ancient Latin term “purgate” which

means “to cleanse” or “to purge.” It would, therefore, be helpful to view Purgatory not as a place but as a

process whereby we are cleansed or purified in order to be prepared to spend eternity with God. The

Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC) explains that for the faithful, this process is reserved for those

destined for the Promised Land so that they might “achieve the holiness necessary to enter into the

kingdom of Heaven.” (CCC1030)

Purgatory has been referred to by some as the “boot camp of Heaven” – an analogy which personally

makes sense. No matter what your physical condition is prior to entering the military, boot camp is

intended to bring everyone to the same level of physical and mental fitness. In order to enter into the

beatific vision of God and be one with the angels and the saints, one must first be prepared.

One image of Purgatory, which is not applicable, is that it is the equivalent of “doing time” in a way similar

to what happens to a convicted criminal who “serves time” in prison for a crime which was committed.

What makes this a less than perfect analogy is that time is a construct which exists in this life and this

world but is totally irrelevant once our earthly bodies cease to have life within them. When we enter into

eternity, measurable time – as we know it – stops. There are no countdown clocks in Purgatory.

Certainly, there are accounts of saints who have had visions of eternity. (Google or read the passages on

Purgatory which were written by St. Faustina if you want more information.) Full disclosure: I confess to

having a dubium regarding this vision. It is not Church doctrine. Ultimately, we just do not know all there is

to know about Purgatory, nor should we; our essential goal is Heaven, not Purgatory.

Basically, Purgatory is a place of hope because all in Purgatory are assured of going to Heaven. The

Catholic Church teaches that those who died with unconfessed venial sins must go through some type of

purgation. Those who die with unconfessed mortal sins are in hell if they have not repented of such sins

and sought and received absolution through the Sacrament of Reconciliation/Confession. There is no

chance to change one’s destiny if you die in a state of mortal sin. Therefore, the Sacrament of

Reconciliation/Confession is of vital importance for each and every Catholic.

While on the topic of Purgatory and sin, people often want to wait in order to make a death-bed confession

to a priest, or a family waits until there is almost no breath left in the body of a person who is dying before

calling a priest for the Sacrament of the Sick. They do this because they don’t want to upset the person

who is dying by calling a priest too soon. I would liken this to playing Russian Roulette with our eternal and

immortal soul. Our ultimate goal is Heaven, and if it is not, then you probably should not even be reading

this. It is important to strive to live a moral life in our earthly time and to regularly receive the Sacrament of

Reconciliation and to call a priest when a person is seriously ill but still conscious to receive the Sacrament

of the Sick. A person who is terminally ill, or dying, is pretty much aware of what is happening to them if

they are not sedated. I also believe that, while not impossible, a person who is dying and has been anointed

is not likely to sin in a grave and serious manner. Oftentimes, a person who is ill or terminal can “let go” of

their suffering knowing that they are square and right with God.

Personally, I would be overjoyed, come the end of my earthly life, to opt for Purgatory. I am painfully aware

of my unworthiness. The worst suffering our souls could ever endure would be to be permanently

separated from God. To have to undergo some type of purgation, whatever form that might take, would

give me joy in that it would confirm that I had endured sufficiently enough to know that I would be with the

Lord for eternity.

Stewardship Reflection on Lectionary Readings

�

�

November 17, 2019 — Thirty-third Sunday in Ordinary Time

MAL 3:19-20A; PS 98:5-9; 2 THES 3:7-12; LK 21:5-19

As we approach the end of the liturgical year, our readings offer a sobering reminder that this life is not

our ultimate aim, and that God’s justice will triumph in the end. Now is the time to get our priorities in

order, putting God first above all else as His faithful stewards.

This theme of right priorities is rolled out in no uncertain terms from the first verse of our first reading

from Malachi. “Lo, the day is coming, blazing like an oven, when all the proud

and all evildoers will be stubble and the day that is coming will set them on

fire.”

But, there is good news for those who are faithful. “For you who fear my name,

there will arise the sun of justice with its healing rays.” All the trials, any

sufferings or injustices we endure for the sake of the Gospel, will be healed,

and we will be rewarded in the end by our loving God who cannot be outdone

in generosity.

Our second reading from St. Paul’s letter to the Thessalonians reinforces the

message that we must order our lives so that they are directed to the

attainment of holiness and nothing else. We see in this passage that

conducting ourselves as good stewards involves not only action in certain

areas (intentional prioritizing of our time, talents, and treasure); it also means

refraining from certain actions and areas that are really none of our concern.

St. Paul puts it this way: “

Some are conducting themselves among you in a disorderly way, by not

keeping busy but minding the business of others.” It can be tempting in family

life, work life and parish life, especially for those go-getters among us, to want

to insert ourselves into others’ way of doing things. But a good steward must

have the humility to recognize that God has given gifts to everyone, and the

way others use their gifts is between them and God. Besides, with a strong

stewardship plan of life, we should have plenty to focus on without worrying

about how those around us are operating.

Finally, our Lord brings home the urgency of right priorities in our Gospel passage from Luke, reminding

the people around Him who were looking at the temple nearby, “All that you see here — the days will come

when there will not be left a stone upon another stone that will not be thrown down.” Everything in this

world is fleeting, our Lord reminds us. We must keep our focus on eternity.

Yet, before the eternal bliss of heaven, we should expect to be tried and tested. “Before all this happens,

however, they will seize and persecute you, they will hand you over to the synagogues and to prisons and

they will have you led before kings and governors because of my name.” Sounds scary. But if you are

living a stewardship way of life, there is nothing to fear. You have a plan in place. All you need to do is

stick with it. Put our Lord first in your time, with your talents, and through your use of treasure. This way of

life is not meant to be easy. But Jesus promises it will lead to eternal salvation and the joy of union with

Him. “You will be hated by all because of my name, but not a hair on your head will be destroyed. By your

perseverance you will secure your lives.”
