No, We confess our sins to God directly.
Roman Catholic AnswerJesus Christ instituted all seven sacraments, including the sacrament of confession. As Jesus is God and knows all things (by definition, He created each one of us), He certainly did not need confession to "spy" on people. Confession is there to help the individual sinner and it has been instituted by God.
Confession to another human being is only found in the Catholic tradition. In Judaism, Protestant Christianity and Islam, confession is between you and God - only. By the way, He is ALWAYS online.
Confession is good for the soul. In the Baptist church each member is their own priest and can pray for forgiveness directly to God. Confession to a person is not required to receive forgiveness from God. Now that said, counseling in the church is an important part of every pastor's duties.
That is called confession.
i think the prayer of confession is confessing to God that you have sinned and that you are willing to fully live for him. you ask him to come into your heart and be the center of your life. <3 Jesus
You go to confession to confess to God your sins, you pray for forgiveness and god listens he will forgive you. If you are truthful and truly sorry for what you did then god will forgive you.
Before confession it could be nerve-racking, but you should focus on the task ahead of you and confessing everything. Being in confession can be a little intimidating, but just remember you are talking straight to God and to not hold anything back. After confession you feel relieved and renewed and you feel more careful about what you say and do for next time you are going to confession.
Yes, as only the priest and God hear the confessions.
