What are the kinds of Sacraments?
Roman Catholic AnswerSacraments are usually divided into Sacraments of the Living and Sacraments of the Dead. The later (Sacraments of the Dead) mean that can be received by a person who is "dead" due to their sin or not in a state of grace: baptism, penance, and, if needed, anointing of the sick. The other Sacraments (confirmation, the Eucharist, matrimony, and the priesthood) may only be received fruitfully in a state of grace, and are thus called Sacraments of the Living. Of those four, only confirmation, matrimony, and the priesthood are received validly in a state of grave sin, but with no grace, and with the commission of the grave sin of sacrilege. The Eucharist is also truly received by a person not in a state of grace, but, again, with the sin of sacrilege. Anointing is in a class by itself as it is technically a sacrament of the living as a person should be in a state of grace to receive it but it can be received by a person not in a state of grace. from Modern Catholic Dictionary by John A. Hardon, S.J. Doubleday & Co., Inc. Garden City, NY 1980

What is the difference between sacraments of the dead and sacraments of the living?
Roman Catholic AnswerSacraments of the dead are those sacraments which are given to people who are spiritually dead in sin, baptism and penance are both sacraments of the dead. Sacraments of the living mean that one must be alive in Christ, i.e. in a state of grace to even receive the sacrament: Confirmation, the Holy Eucharist, Marriage, Holy Orders are all sacraments of the living. Unction or anointing is a mixed sacrament containing elements of both. To receive a sacrament of the living while in a state of serious sin is, itself, a very grievous sin of sacrilege.
