Indulgences, just like the fable your denomination calls
'transubstantiaiton' ---are useless. Its doctrine is manmade, not at
ALL biblically-supported, and they will never remove sin from you, or
get you out of that imaginary place you call 'purgatory'.

Purgatory is also not biblical. Neither is the fable about 'wearing a
brown scapular will result in Mary rescuing you from Purgatory on the
following Saturday after your demise.

It's ALL manmade doctrine, and it is a LIE.

If you must promote it, kindly do not do it on the Baptist group.
