Confession (Lutheran Church)

For general confession in the Lutheran Church, see Penitential Rite.
Not to be confused with Church of the Lutheran Confession.
"Private Absolution ought to be retained in the churches, although in confession an enumeration of all sins is not necessary." —Augsburg Confession, Article 11

In the Lutheran Church, Confession (also called Holy Absolution) is the method given by Christ to the Church by which individual men and women may receive the forgiveness of sins; according to the Large Catechism, the "third sacrament" of Holy Absolution is properly viewed as an extension of Holy Baptism.[1] Unlike Roman Catholicism, the practice of private confession in the Lutheran Church is voluntary, not obligatory.
