John 20:23, Jesus tells His disciples, “If you forgive anyone his sins, they are forgiven; if you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven."

^ the scriptural justification of confession

If you have saving faith, your heart is transformed and you have works, but works cannot save someone. Faith alone saves. This is why the just live by faith (Romans 1:17)

Living by faith results in good work for by their fruits you shall know them

Teaching to forgive isn't justification for confession. There's actually a passage in 1 John that literally says if we confess our sins He is faithful and just to forgive us, but even that isn't saying to confess to a man who is elevated to an authority.

If you are not in communion with the church or the sacraments you have no faith

Lutherans actively reject the bride of christ you do not have faith in christs church

Church is a spiritual body of followers of Christ, not a demonic institution claiming to be it.

Lutherans schism is of the lack of believe in church authority the sacraments and the ability for God to keep the church from error

Your error is thinking than organization was/ever will be the church.

Peter is the rock of the church

you have built your church on sand

Peter would rebuke the entire concept of the Catholic church.

You have no Apostolic succession, no authority, no love, no fruit, and no truth.

what would he rebuke

no you have no apostolic succession

The Catholic church is carnality dressed up like Spirituality.

15th century

where is the link with the saints

1500 years of God's church being wrong

do you not have faith in God to remove confusion

Apostolic succession as you understand it isn't Biblical.

Well how did saul become a apostle of christ

by authority of peter

The Catholic church was wrong (objectively) on many things. Do you support the selling of indulgences?

The selling of indulgences were abused but morally the concept is not wrong

There was always a real church. They were the ones your demonic organization was burning alive for having the Bible in their language.

no there wasn't you have made this up the catholic faith was the real church

I wan't evidence

You think indulgences are permitted? You think man has the authority to sell salvation? You think faith in Christ can be sold?

No the clergy who have inheritted the will of the apostles have the God given right to assign pennance for repenting of sins

if that is giving to charity or the work of the church

that is doctrinally justified

You can't sell believe on Christ. So you either believe. Are you saying faith in Christ doesn't save?

Your clergy inherited gluttony and murder, but never any real spritual authority I'm afraid. None. Zip. Nothing.

Man cannot sell salvation.

you have heard my objection to lutheran heresy you haven't disproved my point your heresy sows confusion so is from lucifer

"Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling."
-Phillippians 2:12

^ This is about working for your salvation

I literally demolished your lazy James 2:24 garbage. Same thing every Catholic says. I had to explain to you what James was saying.

Man must come to His own knowledge of Christ. It cannot be sold to him.
