Catholic AnswerIt is very important to keep in mind that confirmation, like baptism, is NOT a "graduation" type ceremony - it is an occasion when God gives you grace, which ONLY becomes active when you are in a state of grace and actively living a good Christian life. In other words, it is analogous to birth - after birth you have to live your entire life, and it is on how you live your life that you will be judged at the end of your life. In the same manner, the graces of the Holy Spirit are put into you to strengthen and allow you to live out the graces originally given in Baptism, but it is NOT automatic, you actually have to live them. You will not continue anything, you will START to live these graces, and, by the grace of God, grow in them until the end of your life and judgment. Think of it like getting a swimming suit, the suit doesn't teach you how to swim, it only gives you the correct thing to wear while you are swimming, you actually have to get in the water and learn to swim, and learn to swim well. The fact that you have been confirmed is a great start to working out your salvation with fear and trembling (Philippians 2:12) but it is only a start!Confirmation is the confirmation of a Catholic's belief in God through a Sacrament.
No, reconciliation is about confessing your sins and being forgiven by God or 'reconciled' with God. confirmation is about strengthening the faith you have with God and the Holy spirit
He is the Son of God.
In confirmation, the word of God symbolizes the deepening of one's faith and commitment to the teachings of Christianity. It represents the guidance and strength that believers receive from Scripture, affirming their relationship with God and the community of faith. This connection underscores the importance of living according to God's will and the transformative power of His word in the life of a confirmed believer.
Confirmation creates a spiritual transformation, not mental or physical. In fact, you might think, "What's the big deal--I don't feel any different." But God through the Holy Spirit will guide you.
because it brings you closer to God and it is a big sacrament of our faith
The Church sees it as working in conjunction with baptism. A Catholic has to be baptized first, before he can undergo confirmation. If baptism initiates a Catholic into the Church, then confirmation calls on the Holy Spirit to come more fully into the confirmant's life to make him a full, productive member of the faith. The term they often use with confirmation is that confirmants become "soldiers of God" in the rite of confirmation.
share your faith with them, pray with them, tell them of all the wonderful ways God has blessed your life and all the ways you would like him to continue to bless your life.
God gives us eternal life, if we have faith in His son as a sacrifice for sin. 1John 5:11 - 13 And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. That You May Know. These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.
"I'm sorry, God." Then do better next time. It is a process that will continue all your life.
