He simply did not. He only asked our remembrance of Him annually at the Passover supper and instituted new symbols of bread (His marred body) and wine (His shed blood). Baptism was already a common event in Judaism and continues on in Christianity (see Acts 2:38-41). The sacraments many know today were begun and designed by the Church of Rome.

According to the Catholic faith, yes. But the Bible seems to clearly tell Christians that God is only looking for a personal relationship with His Son Jesus (often called Salvation or Being Born Again) in order to bring you into heaven, but I am very sure it wont hurt to do the good deeds of the 7 Sacraments.

If you trust the Bible then find out who Jesus is and how to believe on Him.
