Episode 37

Receive a confession

Forgiveness is not: That’s ok, not a big deal, well there is a good excuse

It’s also not *GASP you did what?

Must see your own wickedness first:

“Anybody who lives beneath the Cross and who has discerned in the Cross of Jesus the utter wickedness of all men and of his own heart will find there is no sin that can ever be alien to him. Anybody who has once been horrified by the dreadfulness of his own sin that nailed Jesus to the Cross will no longer be horrified by even the rankest sins of a brother.”

Dietrich Bonhoeffer Life Together p.118

Bonhoeffer goes on to say that you should not receive a confession unless you yourself are practicing it yourself.
