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 [[User:NishantXavier|NishantXavier]]<sup>[[User talk:NishantXavier|For Christ the King]]</sup> 10:25, 31 August 2020 (EDT) 10:34, 28 August 2020 (EDT)

*'''1 Peter 2:4-6''' - ''As you come to him, a living stone rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious, you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house, to be '''a holy priesthood''', to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. For it stands in Scripture: “Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone, a cornerstone chosen and precious, and whoever believes in him will not be put to shame.”''

This is the priesthood of all believers, not an exclusive clique. And by telling the laity they have to wait till death to join the priesthood, you are holding back people from salvation, i.e. you are doing the devil's work.  [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|Free Kyle!]]</sup> 15:24, 15 September 2020 (EDT)
