subject Of Fr sutton's Address Last Eve
ming.
There was large attendance at st.
Monica's church last evening. At the
outset Father Sutton asked his hearers 70
lay aside all preconceived ideas on the
subject of confession and candidly and
fairly to follow him. He then told his
heaEers what the sacrament of penance
to which not only the Roman Catholic
church holds. but every religious body in
the world which has ever left the church,
at no matter how early a date, still holds,
save the Protestant bodies formed by
Luther. Calvin and the others Of their
time. ssIf penance Is a human institu-
tion. he said mo one should have any
thing 10 do with It. /" but If it Is a divine
institution, how can one calling himself a
Christian dare to turn his back on it,
Protestants would have the world be-
lieYe ''that confession was man-made in
stitution Of comparatively recent date,
He examined the history to see If this
were true. Confession was not started
in the 10th century said the lecturer,
s'because it was then that the Pope con-
ferred Oh Henry the VIII the title de
fender Of the faith because be wrote a
book defending the seven sacraments, Of
which penance is one. SIT was not In the
18th century, lhe argued, because then, at
the Council Of Lenteran held in Rome the
rule was made in the church that every
one mast 60 TO confession at least once a
year, which rule is still in force. 1t was
not in the Sth century for the Greeks car
ried confession away with them when they
separated from the papal authority at the
time. And so it was through earlier cen
turtles, when the Armenians, Arians, Nes-
torians, and others went out. Nowhere
in traditions, the writings Of the fathers,
or In profane history, is there is single
record Of the founding of the practice Of
confession to priest, OF absolution to the
penitent3
From these facts he argned that 1t was
not human institution. Was confession
a divine institutions He proceeded to ex-
anime the question along this line He
produced book and called the attention
of his hearers to the fact 1t was printed in
Oxford and was King James version Of
the Bible. From the book Of Numbers he
read the Mosaic law the command that
sinners should confess their wrong doings,
In the Gospel according to st. Matthew he
read the narrative of the commission Of
Christ to the Apostles when he used
the words, AS The Father has sent me,
even so ] send you He said in connec-
tion that Christ Himself said He came into
the world to forgive sins and did SO. II
we had nothing else but these words upon
which to base our belief in the Sacrament
0f Penance, we would have enough. But
it Is not all Turning to the Gospel Of st.
John he read Of that appearance Of the
risen Savior to the II at evening in the
inner chamber, when he breathed upon
them and said Receive We the Holy Ghost
whosoever sins We remit, they are remit
ted unto them; and whosoever sins We re
tain: they are retained.
