I remember not long ago, I was just sitting on the sofa and this feeling of peace came over me. It was so confident and trustworthy that I had to be quiet and just focus on this peace. I believe the Holy Spirit had come over me and gave me such reasurrance of His blood sacrifice that I knew I was forgiven and I knew I had just put all my trust in Him. It was like wow!!! I felt so wonderful and I didn't even go to a priest, then I asked Jesus to give peace to all those I had hurt. Just beleev

@bornagainsaint1 Beloved, several things concern me. First, confidence and trust should be validated by feeling. Second, the Holy Spirit does not "come over" a believer. He bears witness with your human spirit. Third, the forgivenss of which you speak appears to be forgiveness at the point of salvation. The forgiveness of which I speak is post-salvation. Fourth, correct. You are the priest. No need for an intermediary. Fifth, praying to Jesus is unbiblical in the Church Age. Pray to the Father.

How ignorant can one be? This verse describes non-believers people. Read on!

I hope you are not angry at my comment, because if you are, well, you must confess it! That is a big sin! What is this?! A joke? Read 1 John 4:17! Think through it! 1:9 talks about believing in Christ, and it is for non-believers. That explains the sin unto death - that is, unbelief - you are not saved, you are dead.

You comments are appreciated but rejected as in error. 1 John 1:9 addresses the post-salvation sin of a born-again believer. Angry? Why? Agape love is always the order of the day where disagreement exists. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved! The sin unto death is premature death, the final level of divine discipline for Christian failure to live the Christian way of life.

By confessing to a priest you are confessing to Jesus. A priest never acts on his own accord but by the authority of Jesus given to him By jesus at Ordination. Jesus tells St. Maria Faustina that "I am only hidden behind the priest. Jesus does the healing and forgiving only using the priest as an agent. Don't let this guy tell you otherwise.

But to him not working, but believing on Him justifying the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. Even as David also says of the blessedness of the man to whom God imputes righteousness without works, saying, "Blessed are those whose lawlessnesses are forgiven, and whose sins are covered; blessed is the man to whom the Lord will in no way impute sin."

What about this? What does it say?

[cheesemonkey1990]

No you don't. You would not then believe then in faith alone. Not translated as such until 1531 or so. You would believe in the true prescece of Jesus in the Eucharist and you would "Hold fast to the traditions we have given you" You and no other protestant do this. Sorry but you are way off and I am willing to address this matter in personal messages as long as it takes, weather you have a doctorate in biblical theology or not.
