As has been abundantly noted, there is no mention of purgatory in the Bible. And the understanding of purgatory en vogue during the period of the reformation is, I think, pretty unbiblical, and even anti-Christian, in that it seemed to focus very much as a place of torment for our purification - which I could escape when my sentence was up, or when others did “good works” in my name. These good works might be gifts to the church, or they might be other sorts of good deeds.
