Bible Question: Does the Church have the authority to forgive sin? |
Bible Answer: Lordlover: The church has a ministry of reconciliation: 2 Cor 5:18-20 "18: All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation; 19: that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. 20: So we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We beseech you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. Luke 24:45-47 45: Then he opened their minds to understand the scriptures, 46: and said to them, "Thus it is written, that the Christ should suffer and on the third day rise from the dead, 47: and that repentance and forgiveness of sins should be preached in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem. John 20:22-23 22: And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and said to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit. 23: If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained."
