An indulgence is the full or partial remission of temporal punishment due for sins which have already been forgiven. The indulgence is granted by the Catholic Church after the sinner has confessed and received absolution. It does not 'forgive' sins as some believe but does shorten any time we might other wise spend in Purgatory for sins we have committed and already confessed. Indulgence is the full or partial remission of temporal punishment for sins after the sinner confesses and receives absolution.
