Bible Question: Does the Church have the authority to forgive sin? |
Bible Answer: When Jesus Christ taught us to pray, I think it is very clear that only God can forgive our sins: Mt 6:9 ΒΆ After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Mt 6:10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Mt 6:11 Give us this day our daily bread. Mt 6:12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. Chirch is subject unto Christ He is the head of Church so it is Him can forgive our sins: Eph 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body. Eph 5:24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing. |
