To teach people about how God wants them to live and what they should do to be real christians. There are seven sacraments and the most important is the holy communion because you receive Jesus' body
Roman Catholic AnswerGrace in the Catholic Church is the free gift of Almighty God on His creatures through the Sacraments.
.Roman Catholic AnswerThe Church and Sacraments are the way in which Our Blessed Lord comes to us, and imparts sanctifying grace to us.
The Catholic Church believes that the Russian Orthodox Church is a legitimate Church because it has seven valid sacraments. However, the Catholic Church believes that the Catholic Church alone has the fullness of truth.
Baptism and Holy Orders
Holy Orders is the sacrament through which a man is ordained as a deacon, priest, or bishop by the laying on of hands and prayer. This sacrament conveys a special grace and power to serve the Church and administer the other sacraments. It is one of the seven sacraments recognized by the Roman Catholic Church.
I'm not familiar with the standing of a Ukrainian Catholic Church in relationship to the Roman Catholic Church. The Eastern Orthodox Church, which it may be, is currently in a 'schism' with the Church in Rome. This word, schism, is important. Any such church simply means that the Roman Catholic Church does not consider them preaching the same set of truths. When a Roman Catholic individual marries, they have a moral obligation to be married in the Catholic church. Thus, they should be married by a Roman Catholic priest who is in union with the Church. However, as you might have heard, exceptions can be granted. The best advice is really one that your pastor will answer. I urge you to pay him a visit and discuss this important topic. God bless you!
Roman Catholic AnswerThe most important of the sacred signs in the Church are the sacraments.
Yes. In fact, if a Roman Catholic is unable to partake of the Eucharist in a Roman Catholic church, they may do so in an Orthodox one. The RCC considers Orthodox sacraments valid (including their ordinations to the priesthood).
Catholic answerIt's just the Catholic Church, not the Roman Catholic Church. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is rarely used by the Catholic Church. .The seven sacraments are the same today as they were back then, and they have always been central to Christian belief, whether ancient, medieval, or modern:BaptismPenance (or Confession)ConfirmationHoly EucharistMatrimonyHoly OrdersAnointing (Extreme Unction)The Catholic Church further groups them in this way:-The Sacraments of Initiation (Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist)-Sacraments of Healing (Penance/Reconciliation and Anointing of the Sick)-Sacraments at the Service of Communion (Holy Matrimony and Holy Orders)
.Catholic AnswerThe Catholic Church has the same seven sacraments the world over.
Roman Catholic AnswerCertainly not, there have been seven sacraments from the very beginning, This is something that we have received from God and thus are incapable of changing.
It's primary benefit - universality. Its rites, sacraments and doctrine are the same around the world.
