I recently had a conversation with some men regarding the value of confessing sins to God.  If God already knows all things and about you, could why do we need to confess our sins to Him?  The opinions of the men, who were all Christians, varied from no it isn’t necessary or valuable to yes you have to confess your sins to be forgiven.  This prompted me to scan the scriptures to see what God’s Word says about confessing sins to God and to one another.
