Summary: "Confession and Absolution" by T. J. Capel is a theological publication written in the late 19th century. This work is comprised of a series of conferences that outline the importance of confession and the conditions required for the forgiveness of sin within the Christian faith. The book aims to clarify the role of repentance, confession, and absolution in the context of Catholic doctrine, emphasizing the necessity of these practices for restoring one's relationship with God. In this book, the author explores the intricate theology surrounding the sacrament of confession and the concept of absolution as vital elements in seeking forgiveness from God. Capel discusses the nature of sin and its consequences, the importance of true contrition, and the role of a priest as a ministerial figure who acts on behalf of Christ to provide reconciliation. By drawing upon scripture, the teachings of Church Fathers, and traditional practices, the author seeks to reinforce the necessity of confession as a means of spiritual healing, presenting it as a channel through which the faithful can receive God's mercy and reestablish their grace after the fall into sin.
