Q&A — If purgatory exists, did Jesus still need to die? Catholic distinction: eternal vs. temporal consequences

Responding to Catholic Apologists on Purgatory 00:54:00 – 00:55:30

Question on how purgatory relates to the atonement

Catholic theology distinguishes eternal consequences of sin (which Christ paid) from temporal consequences (which the sinner pays in purgatory). Mike rejects this by noting that 'temporal consequence' in everyday life (e.g., going to jail) is just a consequence, not payment that clears divine accountability. He sees this as limiting the scope of what Christ's death accomplished.
