Note also that in the anointing of the sick described in Js , it is to the presbyters of the Church the person is to be brought, and his sins will be forgiven. It is to the ordained that the sick are brought.
The fervent prayer of a righteousness person is very powerful. Slightly later Christian writers, such as Origin , Cyprian d. Cyprian writes that the forgiving of sins can take place only through the priests.

The antiquity of this practice easily documented in Jurgens see above in Sources. This power to forgive is two-fold, to loose to forgive or to hold them bound not to forgive. This means that sins had to be verbally confessed to the priests so they could know which sins to forgive and which not to forgive. Also, their authority was to forgive or not to forgive, not merely to proclaim that God had already forgiven sins based on people's subjective contrition see Keating p.
Did the Medieval Catholic Church, in a power-hungry move, force this doctrine of confession to a priest upon the innocent apostolic Church? If the apostles and disciples believed that Christ instituted a priesthood that included the power to forgive sins in his stead, we would expect the successors of the apostles, that is, the bishops, and Christians of late years to act as though such power was legitimately and habitually exercised.
In fact, in early Christian writings we find no sign of protests concerning priestly forgiveness of sins. Quite the contrary, we find that confession to a priest was accepted as consistent with the original deposit of faith Keating, p. Benefits of doing this the Catholic way First, the Catholic is seeking forgiveness the way Christ intended it to be sought. Second, by confessing to a priest, the Catholic learns a lesson in humility which is conveniently avoided when one confesses only through private prayer.
Third, the Catholic receives sacramental graces that the non-Catholic does not get; through the sacrament of penance, not only are sins forgiven, but graces are obtained. Sixth, the Catholic, by going to a recognized and trained confessor, is protected against the subjective dangers of such psychological tricks of the personality such as projection, rationalization, etc.
Error during search of Bible, King James Version
Basic Components of Sincere Repentance It is important to know what is involved in repentance. Some of these elements are often left out. Do I need outside objective guidance to obtain a more accurate perception of myself? Be sorry for committing the sin.
Just why am I sorry? Getting caught? For the painful or destructive consequences of my behavior? Displeasing God Himself? Because God is so good? Admit that I cannot overcome it on my own.

Am I trying to protect my ego or my reputation by refusing to admit that I need help? Am I willing to rely on the Lord God? Confess it to a priest.
Sinners Quotes
Am I honest in stating the sin simply and accurately? Take the practical steps necessary to avoid doing it again. All you have to do is lose everything you gained when you got saved. Since you could never go to hell with anything you received when you were saved, then everything you obtained through salvation must be either reversed or destroyed. Then you can go to hell. So your next move is to find the source which can tell you how to reverse these steps. Well, if you are going to lose your salvation just bear with me if you want to keep yours , then you must lose it according to the rules.
The rule book is, of course, the word of God. You must not rely on feelings, or common sense, or human reasoning. Feelings can be wrong. This brings us to the fourteen easy steps for losing your salvation. Since every one of these steps represents some great blessing you received when you got saved, then all of these steps must be completed without fail in order to lose your salvation. You cannot miss any of them and become lost.
You must accomplish them all. This first step involves the basis of your salvation. When you accept Jesus Christ as Saviour, you are saved totally by the grace of God. Ephesians teaches: For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.
Grace is defined as God's unmerited favor. It is God doing for you what you cannot do for yourself. Since you cannot save yourself, God offers His gift of grace as the basis of your salvation. This means you cannot save yourself by good works. Water baptism, church membership, church confirmation, loving your neighbor, and even the keeping of the ten commandments are all unable to give you or anyone else a place in heaven. Romans states: Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. Titus declares: Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;.
Now, since good works can do nothing to earn salvation see also Galatians ; Philippians , then evil works can do nothing to remove salvation.
You are saved in spite of your sins; you cannot become lost because of your sins. Since you are saved by grace, you can only become lost by declaring God's grace as insufficient for you. That is the first step. Whereas the first step removed the basis of salvation—grace, the second step is necessary to reverse the method of salvation—faith.
Contrary to popular belief, you are not saved by producing enough faith so that God will accept you. Oh yes, you must believe. But your belief is completed by the faith of Christ. Again, the Bible must be the authority. Look once more at Ephesians For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:. You are saved by grace and through faith. But that faith is not of yourself; it is the gift of God. Does this mean that we are saved apart from our own decision to believe?
Not at all! Read carefully Galatians Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. You cannot be justified by the works of the law. But you can be justified by the faith of Jesus Christ. This is not faith in Christ, but the faith of Jesus Christ. But in order to be justified by the faith of Christ, you must believe in Him. Sound confusing?
Look at Romans Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:. Notice the wording carefully. The righteousness of God is received on the basis of the faith of Jesus Christ. The faith of Jesus Christ is given "unto all and upon all them that believe. Although you must believe to the best of your ability, the perfect faith which provides for you a perfect salvation is the faith of Christ.
This means that there is no need to "pray through" or "hold on" in order to get saved. We come to God in simple belief, and He completes our faulty faith with the perfect faith of Christ. This also means that you cannot become lost by losing faith. Although your faith may waver at times, your salvation is based on the faith of Christ.
Therefore, the only way to lose your salvation is to find the faith of Christ to be faulty. That completes the second step. This third step has to do with one of the great products of your salvation—imputed righteousness. This imputed righteousness that means righteousness placed on us from an outside source involves the most uneven swap in the universe.
When you get saved, you trade the rags of your sin for the robes of Christ's righteousness. Let's consider this trade one part at a time. When Christ died on the cross, He took our sins upon Himself and paid for them in full. Galatians reads: Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:.
That is, Christ took your sins upon Himself when He died on the cross, so that you could take His righteousness upon yourself when you accept Him as Saviour. When you are saved, you are clothed in the righteousness of Christ see 1 Corinthians Therefore, you will never have to stand before God in your own righteousness Philippians You are truly complete in Christ Colossians This also means that you cannot become lost by losing your own righteousness.
Though your righteousness may fail from time to time, the righteousness of Christ can never fail. In order to lose your salvation, you must get Christ to take back His righteousness, and you must take back upon yourself the sin for which He died. And so the third step is completed. You receive something very special when you accept Christ. You receive a pardon for your sin greater than the pardon any criminal ever received from any governor or president.
This pardon is based on none other than the shed blood of Christ.
