[Salvation]

I don't think you are that familiar with the Words of Absolution that the priest says. Do you know who forgives your sins in Confession/Sacrament of Penance?

Catechism of the Catholic Church

 

1449 The formula of absolution used in the Latin Church expresses the essential elements of this sacrament: the Father of mercies is the source of all forgiveness. He effects the reconciliation of sinners through the Passover of his Son and the gift of his Spirit, through the prayer and ministry of the Church:

 

God, the Father of mercies,
through the death and the resurrection of his Son
has reconciled the world to himself
and sent the Holy Spirit among us
for the forgiveness of sins;
through the ministry of the Church
may God give you pardon and peace,
and I absolve you from your sins in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

“Are you saying that Jesus doesn’t forgive anyone?”

Where did I say that?

You really are confused.

You are the one who is teaching people to add to the Sacrifice of Christ: (i.e., WE all have to do our part”)
That’s what you said. Does the Priest tell you what your
Penance is? What gives him the authority to dish out Penance? He’s not God. Neither is the Pope!

Like I said ..........Thanks for making my point.
The Catholic Church needs to preach the Good NEWS!
Jesus Saves. That’s it.
Amen.
