Now if I breath on you the only thing you will find is that I've got bad breath, but if God breathed on the Apostles after His Ressurection and gave us the Sacrament of Confession, why would you discount this as a necessary part for your eternal salvation yet you accept the Bible in it's ENTIRETY? What is your way around the need for the Sacrament of Reconciliation in the denomination you attend?
Peace and all good,

Um... first of all, I don't subscribe to the idea of denominations: I find it counterintuitive to Christian unity.
Second, how am I discounting whatever it is you think I'm discounting as part of my salvation? And what exactly am I discounting?
