The term "sacraments" is not explicitly used in the Bible, but it generally refers to sacred rites or ceremonies instituted by Christ that serve as outward signs of inward grace. In Christian theology, particularly in traditions such as Roman Catholicism, Anglicanism, and others, sacraments are understood as means of grace that believers partake in to deepen their relationship with God. The two most commonly recognized sacraments in many Christian denominations are Baptism and the Eucharist (or Communion), both of which are rooted in New Testament practices.Baptism is seen as an initiation into the Christian faith, symbolizing the believer's identification with the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ (Romans 6:3-4). It is a public declaration of faith and repentance (Acts 2:38). The Eucharist commemorates the Last Supper, where Jesus instituted the practice of breaking bread and sharing wine as symbols of His body and blood (Luke 22:19-20). This sacramental practice serves as a reminder of Christ's sacrifice and fosters communal fellowship among believers. Overall, while the concept of sacraments is developed more fully in church tradition, their biblical foundations emphasize the importance of these practices in the life of the Christian community.
