It's interesting that you posted this today as few days ago there's a friend of mine who is a brother in LC asking if Protestant Christians do emphasize confessing to one another more than confessing to The Lord ( side note I'm very disturbed still by some of their members' concept of "us vs denominations" or "us vs Protestants".... In my naive idea we are all the same and it's weird when people ask me I wouldn't call myself a Protestant I would simply say I'm a Christian ) anyways I wasn't sure why he asked this question until I saw your post, realizing that may be a common notion of LC resulting in his question. One person said they did it to free them from guilt yet I cannot agree with it--- in the church I meet with both are equally emphasized , and confessing to one another is simply because we need to maintain accountability, and in cases when we hurt one another we surely need to confess and forgive one another so that God can work into us and heal us . Confessing to The Lord surely is out for our fear and love for God and the fact that we need His blood and grace and this only draws us closer to Him.
