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


And ur friend cannot turn to town cryer that broadcast your secret in village?


U people stop demonlising religion ok.

If u can't do and other want, it shouldn't bring heart attack to u ok.


If you go to any religion places(church/mosque) ,that doesn't say something that will make sit upright. Oga, u are going to club house and not religion center.

Should we continue in sin that grace may abound? God forbid!
You call yourself a child of God and you keep sinning and confessing?

If we keep sinning and pleading for forgiveness every single day, it means that it will continue forever and we're only deceiving ourselves.

Even the bible tells us that we should be perfect as the Father. If you're an ambassador of Christ sin should not be your aim.

Happy Sunday folks!
Using the Bible to claim evidence or proof is very funny.... It's so funny seeing y'all quoting Bible verses to give a point!

What they end up saying is that understanding the Bible is spiritual!!....... But how many of them have been to the spiritual world, they should tell us how it looks like!

Throughout the whole scenario in the garden of Eden, the christian god never mentioned anything related to satan or devil or lucifer.... That's a proof satan wasn't present there.

It is NOT the Priest that actually forgives you of the sin.πŸ€¨πŸ™‚

After the confession, He only Tells u to go and do Penance. (Personal Prayers of forgiveness)

And also tells u to Try Quit the Sinful Habits. πŸ™‚

So if the priest has no power to forgive the sins, of what use then is telling him those sins in the first place?

I have not gone for confession for 10 years and counting.

It is totally pointless to me.

No, Catholic church does not practice Mosaic laws. πŸ˜•πŸ˜

The Catholic church practice the Christianity laid down by Jesus Christ. πŸ™‚

But being a 2000 year Old Institution, some Old Doctrines of the past do not synchronize well with Modern times.
But Things are still going on. smiley

It appears you don't know much about the Catholic denomination then. You should read your bible very well or better still ask your rev fathers to tell you the kind of method the Catholic church practice. It's very clear Dude, no be Christianity laid down by Jesus dem dey practice, it's the mosaic religion and laws!

Did Jesus Christ ask you to confess your sins to your priests? Did he asked you to pray for Mary to intercede for you? Is it Mary that died on the cross for you? Abeg, no talk that thing again, Catholics doesn't practice Christianity laid down by Christ, they practice the law of Moses! The Leviticus were the priest and they followed the laws of Moses, that's exactly what the Catholic church practice!

But I've actually thought about that and it doesn't make any atom of sense.

The so called god would have said "... Don't eat from this apple tree and don't listen to a snake that will try to convince you otherwise..."

It just doesn't make sense.

The same Bible that Christians claim teaches morality, has lots of bad things in it.

Even the christian god, endorsed slavery, killings etc

All in the name of their god.

Yes we do. It’s part of who we are as Catholics. The priest will never use it against you. On some occasions priest one parish go to other parishes. So during confession you don’t meet a familiar priest. My uncle is a priest and always refer me to other priest for confession. I just love the Catholic Church. Team Catholica.

No! You are Wrong.πŸ˜•

Law of Moses is JUDAISM, the Religion practiced by the Pple of Israel. πŸ™‚

Catholic church was formed from the Early Disciples of Christ. smiley

But as Centuries went by, the Catholic Church came up with those Doctrines to make Men more Religious!.
E.g. The Rosary, Intercessory Prayers to the Saints, Confession, Belief in Purgatory,etc.

In Reality, It's good the Catholic church made these Doctrines.

They helped to Checkmate Man and his Excesses. sad

Because without Religion, Mankind will DESTROY itself. undecided

Yes ,we ,Catholics ,still confess our sins to our priests.
We even mention the frequency we have committed the sin,to the best of our knowledge.
If you don't like that the Catholic church,there are many other christian denomination you can go to.
If not interested in Christianity at all,there is Islam, traditional,atheism ,etc to stick to.

I think that practice has stopped. Civilization has taken over. I used to wonder why someone will confess his sins to another fellow, who would now decide whether your sins would be forgiven or Not. It's funny.
Well, all doctrines of men would crash, only the word of God will Prevail.
Happy Sunday, someone should pls in God's name help with four thousands pls. My survival is largely dependent on this through God. Pls pls people

lol who stopped it? its a doctrine, it was there before I was born and will be there after I die

Lolss, since na 10years u go, you have forgotten the process. πŸ˜ŽπŸ˜„

After you do Confession, the Priest tells you to do some Penance. (E.g. Pray Our Father, Hail Mary,etc)

It's after you have done those Prayers, that we can say your Sins are forgiven. smiley
