The Biblical Doctrine of Purgatory

I received an email today from Patrick Madrid, Catholic apologist and publisher of Envoy Magazine, in which he takes up the Church's doctrine of Purgatory and explains it a very understandable way.

This is a fairly long and thorough article but it is, like most of Patrick Madrid's works, easy to read and comprehend. It would be very helpful both for Catholics who do not quite understand what Purgatory is and isn't, as well as for non-Catholics who may not know the scriptural basis for it.
