Where is confession in the Bible?

[Dan_Terrebonne]

I have a daughter who has left The Church and has converted to Jehovah’s Witness. We have gotten into a huge arguement about confession. She stated that the only person you have to confess your sins to is God, himself. No “advocates of God” ex: priests, pastors, pope, etc. She asked me to show her in the Bible where it states otherwise. So my question to you is: What passage(s) exactly states about confessions so I can show her and prove her wrong on this issue?

Thank you for time on this matter and God Bless.

Sincerely;

Dan Terrebonne, Sr.
