Leviticus13:37
37 But if the scall be in his sight at a stay: and that there is black hair grown up therein; the scall is healed, he is clean, and the priest shall pronounce him clean .
The truth of the thing, and not the sentence of the priest, made him clean, and if the priest had partially pronounced one clean who was not clean his sentence had been null. And therefore it is a fond and dangerous conceit to think that the Absolution given to any sinner by a priest will stand him in any stead if he do not truly repent.
