Do they confess to their priests?

Do they mention the sin they did?

Those that are still fornicating, do they confess to the priests that they had premarital sex with someone?

Sometime, last year,I came across a Facebook post of a research project (from a popular university in the south east) on a closely related subject matter where over 50% of respondents admitted having had sexual relationship with a Clergy man/Priest.

Oga, What do you expect the respondents to confess to the same Clergy man/Priest with whom she committed sexual immorality?

There's a movie where this hot biatch was detailing to the priest on how she will suck his jimmy. The confession turned to "phone intimacy". They both came

My brother, there is no such thing as Catholic bible. Catholic edition was recently introduced on the Bibles. It clearly states GNB with either deutrocanonnical books or apocrypha books. Who compiled the Bible that you use today? If you open it, you will notice that they are attached to the books from Genesis to revelation. At the beginning, you will see where it is written that these books are recorded event.............
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biblical_apocrypha

Good News Bible is published by America
King James version is published by England. Other versions also have their origins.
Please, where did the Bible originate from. That these people put Catholic edition is for sales. I have never bought a bible because of the cover but the contents.

In the Gospel of John 20 vs 23, please read aloud so you can hear your voice.
GO0DHardDick:


Dude, Catholic have their own bible. It's boldly written on it "Good News bible catholic edition" or king James Bible catholic edition. In Catholic bibles, there are names and chapter you'll find there that you will never see in the normal bible.

Names such as Judith chapter 1 - end, sirach, song of the three, Susanna, Maccabees, etc. So the guy right.

Abeg where did the bible gave the apostles power to forgive sins? Dude, the only person who forgive sins in the Bible was Christ, when he said "son, your sins are forgiven there". So WTF are you saying again? How can apostles forgive sins? Are they the ones that died on the cross for humanity? Una go just dey talk carelessly without thinking. This is exactly why Christianity has become a joke. If a mortal man can forgive sins, abeg why did Jesus Christ died on the cross?

Yes we do, confession with a true sense of remorse is the first part to getting forgiveness (Jesus already gave that permission), and forgiving yourself
Confession is therapy😌

Oga, it is better to confess ur sins to your Friend than to a Catholic Priest or any so-called Pastor who will use your confession as sermon on Sundays

The Catholic Church is different. Priests don't use confession as sermon or tell a third party one's confession; they swear an oath never to disclosed confessions.

If Christians are to follow words of God to the latter,then Christianity will seize to exist.bcause 80% of Christian practice has no bases in the Bible.from Sunday services,to VIGIL,to Christmas, to eater celebration to monogamy,to white wedding to miracle crusade to healing school to dancing as a form of worship

Yes.

Fornication is a very small sin to confess.
If you are sleeping with your spouse's sibling or relation or friend, you have to mention it the way it is.
You don't just say you committed adultery.
But in this case, you need to also say whom it was with.



If you killed someone and you knew the person (or you can describe the person), you need to say the name of the person you killed, no matter who the person is.

Unless you're saying that civilization had replaced the Bible.
Because, as long as the words in the Bible continues to be legit in the lives of some people, then, some practices are not leaving soon.

we confess to even our friends or anyone else to feel better when we are in guilt. Till now people people still go for therapy and they feel better after the session. Stop bringing this civilization this in to every issue we know where to apply science where necessary and some of us have accepted our religion as an inseparable part of our life's.

Confessing to friends or anyone, as you said, is voluntary, but the Canon law of the Roman Catholic church states that you MUST confess all your grave sins at least once in a year. Making it compulsory is the problem here.

OP, we still do. smiley

Confession is on Thursday and Friday evenings.🙂

Though many are Shy of confessing sins like Gambling, Fornication, Stealing, Pornography,etc,
It's NOT a big deal because even the Priest could be committing one of the sins you confess.🤔🙂

@the End, He tells you to go and Pray.

In reality, Nobody holy pass. 🤨

Jesus gave his Disciples the power to forgive sins! 🙂

Read Matthew 18:18!. 🤨

But in the Catholic Church, It's not the Priest that declares that your sins are Forgiven.

He tells you to go and do some Special Prayers, with solemnity and with a contrite heart..😔😌

After that, we can say your sins are now Forgiven. smiley
