"Whose soever sins you remit, they are remitted to them; and whose soever sins you retain, they are retained" (John 20:23). Does this verse mean that Roman Catholic priests are given the authority to forgive sins? ![]() |

The answer is Yes. Not only the Roman Catholic, as organized for the purpose, but also all properly organised other catholic churches all over the world. The authority to do so was first sought for by Jesus in His Prayer for all His Disciples and Apostles in St. John's Gospel chapter17. And when He knew that He has had the authority, He then gave it, in John 20:23, to His Disciples and Apostles after them which includes all Born Again Christians and you and I. You can forgive sins bros. And anything you command on earth will be commanded for you in Heaven. But we should not be frivolous, careless and selfish about what we do In Jesus Name. Roman Catholic are Apostles of Christ Jesus after St. Peter. 1 Like 1 Share |

1st John 2:1-2 clearly addresses the issue raised by the op. Earlier i said that no man (including the Priest) born of man and woman is qualified to forgive the sins of another fellow man. 1 Like |
