The last of five “sacred doors” in Rome and at the Vatican will be closed on January 6, 2026. Around 30 million Catholics have made a pilgrimage there in 2025, proclaimed by Pope Francis to be a special “year of Jubilee.” By walking through those doors, pilgrims hoped to earn indulgences facilitating an escape from the suffering of Purgatory, either for them or their deceased loved ones. Is this religious tradition a glorious opportunity or spiritual exploitation? Are they doors of blessings or doors of deception?

The Beliefs of the Catholic Church

According to Catholic doctrine, Mary, the mother of Jesus, was a virgin before, during, and after the birth of Jesus—and thus, a virgin eternally. Is this true? Does the Bible verify this concept? Did any respected leaders in the early church promote this idea? So much hinges on these questions being answered correctly.
