Rreflection #9

I enjoy hearing different life story and now I heard new story of a men name Saint Gregory the great and Augustine Redivivus. Gregory being a son of senator followed his father's footstep in politics. A noble family who has heart to help the poor and later own decided to entered monastery. Augustine and Gregory have some similarity because they both love to help needy people at the same time a monk.

I was amazed by the reality that no matter how are ancestors discovered something that made it known today, still there are things that we really cant understand nor answered. Just like the question of Gregory about the purgatory. Until now I kept on asking what is in the purgatory that people believe about it. They said that it is where people go when their soul are not uncertain or go to  heaven directly. But the Lord affirmed it in the scripture that those who believe and accept Jesus Christ as his personal Lord and Savior he will be saved. People thought that when there family died they assumed that they could still pray for them that their soul may go to heaven. It should be clarified and teach in the church to understand that purgatory does not exist.

Teachers and Pastor, it is an alarmed that we must be alert to response before people will be totally blinded of what is truth. We have the opportunity to teach them and correct their belief that will be proven in the Bible. It's time to go and do the work of God.
