Restitution vs Confession | Ep. XIX

In this broadcast of Answers Bible Questions, the host and a guest discuss whether Christians must practice restitution and distinguish it from confession. They argue that making restitution a doctrine can imply paying for sin, which Christ has already paid for, noting that Old Testament restitution belonged to Israel’s judicial system and that Zacchaeus’ repayment was voluntary rather than commanded. They emphasize that while returning stolen goods may be right and sometimes required by civil law, Scripture’s focus is to stop stealing and live differently, not to impose restitution as a spiritual demand. The conversation highlights cases where restitution is impossible and stresses confession as acknowledging sin before God (1 John 1:9, Psalm 51) and, in some contexts, to other believers for prayer and support (James 5:16).
