One can only be forgiven for faults (sins) to which one admits AND for which one asks forgiveness.

There is no contradiction between Peter's writing and the logic here; and certainly no contradiction between those two items and the Sacrament of Reconciliation.

Thus, belief in Christ constitutes a 'preliminary' foundation for obtaining forgiveness. Upon the foundation next go the bricks: acknowledgement of sins and request for forgiveness.

Admitting one's sins and asking for forgiveness are all scriptural;

please provide the scriptural citation for indulgences.
