Where in the Bible do the words purgatory nuns Eucharist and pope appear?

Those particular words do not appear as such in the Bible. Those words are English words, a language which did not come into existence for centuries after the Bible was written. But all those concepts are in the Bible.

For instance Purgatory, the idea that perfect holiness requires purification are covered in Numbers 31:23, Deuteronomy 4:33-38; Deuteronomy 8:5, and on and on. Purgatory is specifically referenced in Matthew 5:22, 5:25-26, Matthew 12:32, Luke 16:19-31, 1 Corinthians 3:11-14, 15:29 and Maccabees 12:39-45 talks about purgatory, and the requirement that we pray for the deceased. The Eucharist is all through the New Testament, and is preshadowed in numerous passages of the Old Testament; the ultimate text for the Eucharist is the entire sixth chapter of St. John's Gospel.

The first pope, St. Peter, was appointed by Our Blessed Lord in St. Matthew's Gospel, chapter 16, verses 17-19. Nuns are women who devote themselves to prayer and serving Our Blessed Lord, these were prefigured by the Holy women who served Our Blessed Lord all throughout the New Testament.

Well, the answer is: nowhere, nowhere, nowhere, nowhere. Those words/names came from men.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
