Best Answer
Catholic AnswerThe origin of confirmation is Our Blessed Lord who gave the seven Sacraments to His Church as way of imparting grace to people to help them on their way to salvation. Confirmation actually started as the second half of Baptism. It is still celebrated as one Rite in the Eastern Rites, but has been separated in the Latin Rite.
