Why do Catholics confess their sins to a priest?
1 Why do Catholics confess their sins to a priest? Confession is a sacrament instituted by Jesus Christ providing a means for those who fall into sin after Baptism to be restored into God's grace. It involves the admission of one's sins made to a duly approved Priest in order to obtain absolution. Confession is called the "sacrament of Penance" as: the recipient must be truly repentant of his sins , be determined to try to avoid this sin in the future, and be willing to make reparations as appropriate with any/all injured parties. Only God can forgive sin.
