This process is known as purgation. In those verses in 1 Cor. 3, Paul is talking about the Day of Judgment, which comes after death (see Heb. 9:27), and the "fire" he speaks of the cleansing fire of purgation, right in line with how fire is used elsewhere in the New Testament (Matt. 3:2-3, 11-12, Mark 9:49, and 2 Thess. 1:7-8). This state of existence can't be heaven because the individual has the defilement of bad works and is suffering loss, nor can it be hell because Paul says the person "will be saved," so it must be a state of purification in the afterlife that is neither heaven nor hell, but a state whose recipient is still destined for heaven.
Now stop being an asshole and sperging half-cocked about biblical concepts you don't understand, and pray for Rachael's soul instead.
