Why do we need to confess our sins?



a more appropriate question is, ngano mangumpisal man gyud ta sa pari nga pwede man diretso.

After His resurrection Jesus told the apostles, "‘As the Father has sent me, even so I send you.’ And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and said to them, ‘Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained’" (John 20:21–23).

The Johannine text has an emphasis on us being already forgiven.
"Why do we need to confess our sins if they have already been forgiven (1 John 1:9)?"
