Lol, where does the bible say that?
Again where does the bible describe this process?
again where does the bible say we have to confess to priests?
Where did I say that it does? Organised religion doesn't always follow the bible. It is preached by the catholic church, at least that you can't go to heaven if you're not baptised. Confession is also necessary to be a catholic.
I've heard over and over from church representatives and believers alike that we are god's perfect creation and that we're born in sin.

Can you rephrase? I really have no idea what you're trying to say.
If 'religion' doesn't follow what the bible says, then is the God of the bible who commands us through the bible obligated to follow the precepts in a given religion?
Rather is he obligated by what non biblically relevant priests/leadership says concerning who goes to heaven?
Or does God retain full authority despite what a given religion says and follow through with what he has told us in scripture?
Thought crime rephrase:
In mat 5 (where Jesus identifies thought crimes) he only does so to show the futility of trying to follow religious law. He is making it impossible to be found righteous according to the law. Which show point a good Jew to the second part of the law. Atonement. Once you have atonement for sin 'thought crime' becomes a non issue.
