In the Catholic Church, we confess our sins to a priest at Christ's command: "On the evening of that day, the first day of the week, Jesus showed himself to his apostles. He breathed on the, and said to them, 'Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive sins of any, they are forgiven; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained'" (Jn 20:19, 22-23). It is in these words that Jesus gave the Twelve the authority to absolve sins in His holy name.
