This is from a previous post, but I'm pretty sure that the question I have will be obvious from it, and it'll save me a lot of retyping:
First of all, I agree that we are all sinners, that we have all fallen short of the glory of God - but what I don't understand is why you would think that you have to confess your sins to a priest. I'm not trying to denounce anyone's beliefs, I'm just curious - because we should all try to live our lives according to will of God and the only way to do this is to ask questions and look for answers in the Bible.
"and to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood, which speaks better than the blood of Abel. See to it that you do not refuse Him who is speaking. For if those did not escape when they refused him who warned them on earth, much less will we escape who turn away from Him who warns from heaven."
-Hebrews 12:24,25
I understand it from these verses that the only mediator between us and the Lord is Christ Jesus, so I can't justify using another man to try and go between myself and the Lord, or myself and Christ. I just can't find any scriptural evidence for it.
