Day 121. What is a sacrament? (2024)

Today is day 121 and we are studying The Sacraments.

121. What is a sacrament?

A sacrament is an outward and visible sign of an inward and spiritual grace. God gives us the sign as a means by which we receive that grace and as a tangible assurance that we do in fact receive it. (Genesis 17:1–21; John 6:53–58; Romans 2:25–29; 1 Corinthians 10:16; 1662 Catechism)

We will conclude today with The Collect for The Second Sunday of Epiphany found on page 602 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
