Sacraments - Institued by Christ

[PeteZaHut]

I know where Christ instituted Baptism, Eucharist, and Confession. But what about the others?

 

[choy]

Matrimony - when he said marriage is when a man leaves his family and unites with a woman so the two become one

i’m paraphrasing here

Holy Orders - in different times, when he calls the Apostles to follow him, and when He sends them out

Anointing of the Sick - same during when the Apsotles and othe disciples are sent out, they are able to heal in the Name of Jesus

Confirmation - Jesus telling the Apostles they will receive the Holy Spirit. then after Pentecost, the Apostles practice the laying of hands on people

 

[stuart12]

Christ instituted Holy Orders at the Last Supper when He commanded His Apostles to ‘Do this in memory of Me’. An essential link between the Eucharist and the priesthood.

Seven Sacraments: Baptism, Confession, Eucharist, Confirmation, Anointing of the Sick, Marriage, Holy Orders.

You claim to know the Scriptural foundations of Baptism, Confession, and the Eucharist. The Catechism gives an in-depth analysis of each Sacrament. But,

Confirmation:
This Sacrament was instituted on Pentecost when the Holy Spirit descended upon the disciples in the Upper Room.

Anointing of the Sick:
Is anyone among you sick? 6 He should summon the presbyters of the church, and they should pray over him and anoint (him) with oil in the name of the Lord, and the prayer of faith will save the sick person, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed any sins, he will be forgiven. (James 5:14-15)

**Marriage: **
It’s literally all over the place. I doubt there is a single book in the entire Bible where God doesn’t bless marriages or compares His relationship with man like that of a marriage. For the Gospels, for a small and incomplete example, Christ says:

He said in reply, “Have you not read that from the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female’ and said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’? So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore, what God has joined together, no human being must separate.” (Mt 19:4-6)
and in John, Christ is present at the Wedding Feast at Cana.​

Holy Orders:
Christ institutes the Apostles as Priests in order to “do this in remembrance of me” at the Last Supper.

 

[Digitonomy]

I doubt there is a single book in the entire Bible where God doesn’t bless marriages or compares His relationship with man like that of a marriage.

As a start, I direct your attention to 3 John, Philemon, and Obadiah.

Yeah, let’s just nit-pick with the three shortest books in the Bible.

I know where Christ instituted Baptism, Eucharist, and Confession. But what about the others?

From Scripture with regard to Confirmation:

Acts 8:14-17 - the people of Samaria were baptized in Christ, but did not receive the fullness of the Spirit until they were confirmed by the elders. Confirmation is a sacrament that Jesus Christ instituted within His Catholic Church to further strengthen those who have reached adulthood.

Acts 19:5-6 - the people of Ephesus were baptized in Christ, but Paul laid hands on them to seal them with the Holy Spirit. This sealing refers to the sacrament of confirmation.

Eph. 1:13 - Paul writes that the baptized Ephesians were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit, in reference to confirmation.

Eph. 4:30 - Paul says the Ephesians were sealed in the Holy Spirit of God, in reference to the sealing of confirmation.

Heb. 6:2 - Paul gives instruction to the Hebrews about the laying on of hands, in reference to confirmation, not ordination. The early Church laid hands upon the confirmand to administer the sacrament of confirmation.

Heb. 6:2 - this verse also refers to the cycle of life and its relationship to the sacraments - baptism, confirmation, death and judgment - which apply to all people.

John 6:27 - Jesus says the Father has set His seal on Him. As the Father sets His seal on Jesus, so Jesus sets His seal on us on the sacrament of baptism, and later, in the sacrament of confirmation.

From Scripture with regard to the Sacrament of the Sick:

Mark 6:13 - the apostles anointed the sick with oil and cured them. This is a sacrament of the Catholic Church instituted by Christ which heals us physically and spiritually.

James 5:14 - the presbyters (priests) are called to anoint the sick with oil and pray over them. Their sins are forgiven. This is the sacrament of the sick, also called extreme unction.

James 5:15 - during the sacrament of the sick, the priest’s prayer of faith will “save” the sick man, and the Lord will raise him up. The word “save” comes from the Greek word “sozein” which means an eschatological saving of life from death.

James 5:14 -15 - these verses demonstrate another example of how priests effect the forgiveness of sins (here, even without confession) by the power of Jesus Christ. Protestants have no plausible exegesis of this passage other than to acknowledge the sacrament of the sick.

Gal. 4:13-14; 2 Tim. 4:20 - Paul was afflicted with sickness. These verses show that not all illnesses were cured in the apostolic age.
