John 20:21-23

Again Jesus said, “Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.” And with that he breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive anyone’s sins, their sins are forgiven; if you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven.”

Breath = A New Creation, like God breathed life into Adam, therefore Confess= A New Creation.

@ oviditu:

Modern bilbical scholars actually think that the Gospel of John and 1 John were written to a group of Jewish Christians.....not Gnostics :)

I have never really understood all this before. It is really a beautiful thing and very deep spiritual searching and training

! John 1:9 is for non-believers. It is for Gnostics. They said that sin does not exist, so they did not need Christ.
