DOCTRINE OF PURGATORY

DOCTRINE OF PURGATORY
Introduction 

Christianity teaches that those who die in the state of grace but still burdened with temporal punishment due sin already forgiven or still having the guilty of venial sin must undergo purification after death. 

In other words,those who are fundamentally in the state of grace at the time of death can increase in perfection after death until they have reached a state worth of the union with God. 
According to Joseph Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI), he views purgatory as the inwardly necessary process of transformation in which a person becomes capable of Christ, capable of God and thus capable of unity with the whole communion of Saints.
