Yeah, Christ was just kidding when He instituted the Sacrament of reconciliation.....what did He know????
Has a priest ever not forgiven your sins?
I disagree with your interpretation bro, like I ALWAYS disagree with your interpretations. I dont believe He instituted ANY sacraments like you think. Why dont you have any assurance of salvation? Dont you want to go there? Inquiring minds want to know. Of course, if you make it, you will have to spend eternity, with Martin Luther, Dawson Trotman, Bill Bright, Billy Graham, Amir Tsarfati, and me. I can see it now, a trillion eons from now, you and I will still be disagreeing on the OTC. Get used to it. I am comfortable with that. 👍
On what page number of your Douay-Rheims can we find THAT verse?
