Sacraments are traditionally defined as sacraments.

Sacraments (Protestant, English: sacred sacraments) or sacraments (Catholic, English: sacred sacraments) are Christian rituals that convey divine grace. The corresponding name of the Orthodox Church is the sacred mystery. Roman Catholic Church, Orthodox Church, Eastern Assyrian Church, members of Anglican Church, United Methodist Church and Lutheran Church believe that sacraments are not only symbolic symbols, but that God uses these correctly executed sacraments as a tool to spread grace to faithful believers. Western tradition defines sacraments as external symbols that convey inner spiritual grace.

Including:

The purpose of baptism is to wash away original sin.

The confirmation ceremony (also known as the holy anointing ceremony/confirmation ceremony) completely gives life to the recipient.

The Eucharist, when believers receive the Eucharist, is to directly receive the body and blood of Jesus.

Priesthood can eliminate many sins, make people perform priesthood, and still spread the grace given by the Father to other believers.

Repentance (repentance/penance) refers to the confession of the priest, the practice of public sacrifice in Shaanxi or the prayer made by the recipient.

Oiling patients (also known as oiling patients) can eliminate all kinds of forgivable and fatal crimes.

Wedding (holy wedding) refers to a ceremony in which a man and a woman are combined, and the priest also witnessed this ceremony.

Most of these sacraments have been used since the Apostolic period, but the marriage sacrament was not recognized until the Middle Ages.

Sacraments are usually performed by clergy on the recipients. An execution plan usually consists of two parts: tangible and intangible. The intangible part is served by the Holy Spirit, and the tangible part includes laying hands and using holy water, oil, bread and wine. Or a public ceremony (such as a wedding, confession).

Obviously, there are differences between Christian churches and sects in the number and operation of sacraments. But it is generally believed that the sacrament was established by Jesus.
