According to your careless hermeneutic, God is a promise breaker since Abraham has not inherited the world yet.

Rom 4:13 For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.

The world is Abraham's inheritance by promise. God is not a promise breaker. Those who are not children of promise predestined to be born again of the incorruptible seed of Abraham and Sarah are not part of the world of John 3:16.

The word itself comes from the old French purgatoire, from medieval Latin purgatorium, literally: place of cleansing. According to the Roman Catholic Catechism, issued with episcopal authority on the occasion of the 4th Plenary Council in 1937, purgatory is "...a place or state of punishment in the next life where some souls have to suffer for a time, because they are not yet fit to go to heaven."1

1. Roman Catholic Catechism, p.29, 1937 Australian Catholic Truth Society.

The Catholic Encyclopedia points out that, "...there still remains the temporal punishment required by Divine justice, and this requirement must be fulfilled either in the present life or in the world to come, i.e., in Purgatory. An indulgence offers the penitent sinner the means of discharging this debt during this life on earth."3

2132 The Christian veneration of images is not contrary to the first commandment which proscribes idols. Indeed, "the honor rendered to an image passes to its prototype," and "whoever venerates an image venerates the person portrayed in it."

2141 The veneration of sacred images is based on the mystery of the Incarnation of the Word of God. It is not contrary to the first commandment.

Canon 7: Relics are to be placed in all churches: no church is to be consecrated without relics.

Num 16:32-33 And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that appertained unto Korah, and all their goods. (33) They, and all that appertained to them, went down alive into the pit, and the earth closed upon them: and they perished from among the congregation.

"When God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, he said he would not destroy the righteous with the wicked (Genesis 18:25). The only righteous person found was Lot (and perhaps his family), and he was therefore rescued with his family. But the infants were left to be destroyed in that city."

Psa 58:3 The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they be born, speaking lies.

Psa 51:5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.

In his works Fuller manifests error in many critical doctrines of the Bible, among, which are total depravity, imputation, substitution, and justification. And it is especially the atoning work of Christ which Fuller tampers with in an artful and subtle manner.

David Benedict, whose following words concerning Fuller appeared in print in 1860: This famous man maintained that the atonement of Christ was general in its nature, but particular in its application, in opposition to our old divines, who hold that Christ died for the elect only (Fifty Years Among the Baptists p 135).

Further, godly confession and repentance are the fruits of saving grace and not the procuring cause of it. Fuller errs greatly in that he confounds sanctification with justification. In his third sermon on justification, Fuller states the following:

It was not the end of their gathering together against Christ, or it was not their intention and design, to fulfil the purposes and decrees of God, but to fulfil their own lusts, and satiate their rage and malice against him; but it was so in the event, according to the wise disposal of providence, that by their gathering together, by their consultations and conspiracies, they brought about what God in his everlasting council had decreed.

and thy counsel determined before to be done:

“Pilate had a free will to let Jesus go but he sentenced Jesus against his will…The prophecies concerning the crucifixion were given because God foreknew what evil men would do when they were confronted with pure holiness.”
