The 7 Sacraments (The Holy Mysteries)

The 7 Sacraments (The Holy Mysteries)
Baptism
Confirmation (Chrismation)
Eucharist
Penance (Confession, Reconciliation)
Matrimony
Holy Orders
Extreme Unction (Annointing of the Sick)

Notes:
A Sacrament is defined as "an outward sign of inward grace" which was instituted by Christ Himself and receives its power from God, through the merits of Christ.

Baptism and Penance are known as the "Sacraments of the Dead" because before receiving them when needed, we are dead in sin.

Confirmation, Holy Eucharist, Extreme Unction, Holy Orders, and Matrimony are known as the "Sacraments of the Living" because one must be in a state of grace to receive them licitly and receive their fruits; they give additional grace to souls already spiritually alive.

Matrimony and Holy Orders are known as the "Social Sacraments" because they are designed primarily for the benefit of society and confer a social status.

Baptism, Confirmation, and Holy Orders are the three Sacraments which leave an indelible mark on the recipient's soul and can never be repeated.

Even though this is focused on Catholics, because it just seems to be a list of lists for Catholics -- I am posting it as an open thread because I think there is much room for discussion on some of these topics.

Please discuss the currently listed "list!" LOL! Please notify me via FReepmail if you would like to be added to or taken off the Catholic Discussion Ping List.

Yes, I decided to start another sereis -- snicker, chuckle, smile!

Thank you, for the lists links...this is a great compilation.

yikes...reading this list set the hairs on the back of my neck straight up...13 years catholic school...with the last 9 at a German Roman Catholic Orphanage.

I wonder if the 14 Holy Helpers really s/b 13 as St. Christopher (if he even existed) went “poof” into the night)

I really like the list — sorry I forgot to align it left. Oh Well, I’ll do that with the next post.
