: This may not be new info to devout
: Catholics but it sure was a
: revelation to me. One of the
: criticisms of Catholicism is that
: man(priests) do not have the power
: to forgive sins-only God does.
: This was presented to me by a
: Baptist friend and I offered up
: John 20:19-23. Not only does
: Christ charge the apostles with
: the specific act of forgiving
: sins-but he makes a specific point
: to breathe the Holy Spirit into
: them so that they are empowered to
: do so! When I presented this to
: my friend she was basically
: speechless. I consider her very
: knowledgeable about the Bible but
: she had never read that passage in
: the sense I presented it. I
: continued on and said that Christ
: would NEVER give his apostles a
: power and not expect it to pass
: them on. To do so would eventually
: spell the end of the church. She
: still isn't sold on other ideas
: about Catholicism-yet-but I'm
: working on it!
