What do the Sacraments do for Catholics?
The Sacraments are God's way of communicating His saving Grace to people. It is the way that people are initiated into the Body of Christ, how they are justified and sanctified, and attain salvation. They are the NORMAL way in which God accomplishes His Work in men. The Catechism explains the various things that the Sacraments do for Christians including: communicate the Holy Spirit, confer a sacramental "character of sign, effect the grace signified, establish the unity of Christians, forgive sins, give sacramental grace, make Christians "children of God", sustain and strengthen those who are on the way to holiness, and finally, they unite us to Christ. Please note that, although God is not bound to the sacraments (in other words, He can effect all of this outside the sacraments), nevertheless, He has bound US to them. They are the normal way in which He accomplishes these things, and outside of the sacraments, there is no salvation.
Do the sacraments sustain a christian through his earthly life?
Yes, the sacraments play a vital role in sustaining Christians through their earthly life. They provide spiritual nourishment, strengthen faith, and facilitate a deeper connection with God and the community of believers. Through sacraments like the Eucharist and Confession, Christians receive grace that helps them navigate life's challenges and grow in holiness. Ultimately, these sacred rituals reinforce the believer's commitment to their faith and encourage perseverance in their spiritual journey.
