"Acta parroquial" is a certificate issued by a church (literally: Parish Certificate) - depending on the context it could be a baptismal, religious marriage or death certificate.
Prior to the Reformation, within the Roman Catholic church, the clergy was given the "spiritual right" to absolve sins. When a person wanted forgiveness for a particular sin, sometimes a person could purchase from a priest a certificate of sorts which was like a "get out of jail free" card in Monopoly games. Some of the clergy felt this was unethical that a person could pay for sins with money, making light of their offenses. But this also put money into the coffers of the church, which made it a lucrative business.
Church doctrine is that sins will be punished in purgatory or hell, unless the sinner has sought forgiveness. If the sinner has truly sought forgiveness through confession, then Church doctrine is that no punishment is needed. In former times, the purchase of Indulgences could also absolve one of punishment for sins.
You could say: there is lots of hope and forgiveness in the world
Luther believed that a sinner could reach attain salvation by confessing, worshiping Christ and God, and attending the church. He was strongly against the sale of indulgences, which were pardons that could be purchased from the church and supposedly erased any sins you had.
Of course not! You cannot buy forgiveness with money.
Forgiveness is when you forget someones wrongdoing and move on like 'apology accepted'. Also when you seek forgiveness it could be that you want someone to forget your sins.
No.everybody could . But not everybody wants
He disputed the claim that freedom from God's punishment for sin could be purchased with money.
I don.t think you could renew your birth certificate, but may be get a replacement certificate.
