ArchivedConfession- question for CatholicsActually no, because this power to forgive sins was granted exclusively to the apostles by Christ himself. (He breathed on them, imbued them with the Holy Spirit and granted them the authority to forgive sins.) But this authority was only given to the apostles to whom Jesus spoke at that time (it's not extended to anhyone else who follows Jesus) and they did not have the power to pass it on to others. So it ended with them when they eventually died. |
