Maybe this is an exception to the above, or maybe the Priest/Prophet distinction doesn't work quite perfectly. Or maybe this is a function of priesthood after all. But in one case, we all may speak to each other with the voice of God -
notably -
"In the Name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, I absolve you of all your sin."
One guess: what makes absolution a function of priesthood and not prophethood is that forgiveness is not permission.
