@abdimarihotmarbun: Why confess your sins to a priest when you can simply pray to God privately? The Catholic Church's answer is rooted in Scripture. After His resurrection, Jesus gave the apostles the authority to forgive sins: "If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven." John 20:23 Confession is more than admitting our failures-it is an encounter with Christ, the Divine Physician, who heals our spiritual wounds through the ministry of the priest. In the words of absolution, we receive the assurance that God's mercy has truly set us free. Confession isn't a court trial. It's a loving encounter with the Father waiting to welcome you home. John 20:22-23 | James 5:16 | CCC 1484 #catholic #confession #catholicfaith #jesus #godsmercy credit video IG reels theholyredeemerofficial
