The SACRAMENTS are:

* the rite through which divine grace is conveyed to the believer who participates in it.

* a tangible object that represents an intangible object.

* an outward sign that conveys an inward, spiritual grace through Christ.

* an effective sign of the presence of Christ.


From the Cathechism of the Catholic Church:
1210. "Christ instituted the sacraments of the new law... The seven sacraments touch all the stages and all the important moments of Christian life: they give birth and increase, healing and mission to the Christian's life of faith. There is thus a certain resemblance between the stages of natural life and the stages of the spiritual life."
