Catholics added purgatory but AFAIK that isn't scriptural. Hell is also in this life as in separation from God. The afterlife is a continuation of that. After death there's no changing your mind, or God changing his.. this isn't Runaround

Anyone in life could change no matter what their position or history. Apparently God made provision for some to ultimately reject him. Destruction was obviously too good for them!
