of the sacrament,only baptism and eucharist are mentioned in the new testament?

Answer 1

Puritanism wasn't an official religion at the time the New testament was written.

Answer 2

Of the seven rites considered by Catholics to be sacraments, six are explicitly mentioned in the Bible: Baptism, Reconciliation, Communion, Marriage, Ordination, and Annointing of the Sick.

The seventh, Confirmation, is inferred from biblical text, but not explicitly commanded.

Meg M provided great scripture references.

All seven are widely practiced in Lutheran and Anglican/Episcopal churches. In addition, all except Reconciliation are practiced in other Protestant churches, though they usually deny the actual effectiveness of the sacraments as works of grace. However, we define sacraments as those works of grace which (1) involve a physical substance, and (2) are required for salvation under normal circumstances. Therefore, we only consider Baptism and Communion to be sacraments.

Answer 4

That is according to the Bible.

The RC Church differs and has other sacraments, I think seven in all if I'm not mistaken.

Peace be with you.

Answer 5

Baptism symbolizes the new life that born again believers have in Christ.

Romans 6:3 Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? 4 We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life.

Communion of the eucharist celebrate what Jesus did for us and is the equivalent on the OT passover meal. They looked ahead to what the Messiah would do and we look back on what He did for us.

1 Corinthians 11:23 For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread, 24 and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, "This is my body which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me." 25 In the same way also he took the cup, after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me." 26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.

Jesus fulfilled all of the sacrificial and ceremonial laws that were pointing to Him.

Matthew 5:17 "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.

Colossians 2:11 In him also you were circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ, 12 having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the powerful working of God, who raised him from the dead. 13 And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, 14 by canceling the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross. 15 He disarmed the rulers and authorities and put them to open shame, by triumphing over them in him. 16 Therefore let no one pass judgment on you in questions of food and drink, or with regard to a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath. 17 These are a shadow of the things to come, but the substance belongs to Christ.

Answer 6
