George Whitefield (Anglican Protestant minister) once said in a story that a man went to Heaven and was met by Father Abraham and he asked whom have you in heaven: Methodists, Catholics, Baptists, etc.? Abraham looked puzzled and answered we have no one of that name here - only Christians.

From Christians point of view salvation comes from believing in Jesus and accepting his gift on the cross. In John 3:16 it is written "whoever believes in him [Jesus] shall not perish but have eternal life".

How do roman catholics and Orthodox Christians view purgatory and original sin differently?

Roman Catholics believe in purgatory as a temporary state for souls who have died in grace but still need purification before entering heaven. They view original sin as a condition inherited from Adam and Eve, necessitating baptism for salvation. In contrast, Orthodox Christians do not have a formal doctrine of purgatory; instead, they emphasize a process of theosis and the transformative nature of God's grace. Regarding original sin, they acknowledge the fallen state of humanity but focus more on the consequences of sin rather than a legalistic inheritance that requires baptism for salvation.
