15Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.(the world here is creation after the fall and under the dominion of satan. it is creation no longer oriented toward god, but temporary and dominated by inordinate passions[lk 16:13 “No servant can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon."{jesus calls mammon/riches a master not because wealth is evil by nature, but because of the control it has over people}])For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world.† 17And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.

How do Catholics defend Purgatory when there is no mention of it in the Bible?

What do you guys think?

Into the void,
Through the fire,
Walk inside hell,
To find the spire,

Cleanse with flames,
The Devil’s Hall,
To guide Salvation,
Towards them all.

Raise them up,
One by one,
Let no fall,
None for none,

For if one falls,
All shall know,
The evil inside,
Which shall show,
