True or false: "Purgatory" is the waiting state of limbo we go to after we die, while God decides whether we go to heaven or hell.

If we are in a state of grace when we die, our souls will go to heaven because of God's loving sacrifice - however, we will still need to be purified of the small stains on our souls before going to heaven. Our souls enter a state of purgatory before going to heaven, so that we can be truly clean before being united with God forever.
