Show 229: Confession, part 2
from The Uncensored Catholic Hosted by Judson Carroll
The Confessor No priest can give absolution who has not received the faculties for hearing confessions from the bishop of the diocese. Priests who are duly authorized to hear confessions have not power to absolve from all sins, since there are certain sins which the Pope or the bishop has reserved to himself for judgment. (Council of Trent, 14, 11). In the confessional the priest stands in the place of God; therefore the penitent is bound to yield him obedience. Under no possible conditions may the priest repeat anything out of the confessional, Every Catholic is perfectly free to choose his own confessor.
