Confession

Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, so that you may be healed. The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much. James 5:16

The purpose of confession is to keep oneself aware of their true nature and in a state of humility as “God is opposed to the proud but gives grace to the humble”.

Confession brings intimacy and fellowship.

People, who put themselves in a position higher than others, rarely confess to “one another” out of fear. However, “the fear of man brings a snare”.
