:I think you need to rephrase the question. No one disputes confession is necessary; the question is, does a third party mediator have power to absolve sin. [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|Trump 2Q2Q]]</sup> 11:39, 27 August 2020 (EDT)

I believe that aspect is addressed in points 2 and 3. The first point considers Confession in general. The Second Point shows it must be made before Priests, since the Presbyters of the Church are to be called in, as St. James the Apostle writes. The third, from the Gospel of St. John, shows the Lord God granted to His Apostles, the first Bishops and Priests of His Church, the authority to retain and remit sins, which is the power of absolution. 10:34, 28 August 2020 (EDT)
