Instituted by Christ
Christ instituted all seven Sacraments of the Catholic Church, which 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” ( CCC 1210 ). As mentioned in the Catechism of the Catholic Church, these seven Sacraments can be placed in and even received in various orders ( with the primary exception being Baptism, which must come first ), but the order mentioned above bears testimony to the fact that the seven Sacraments together constitute an organic whole ( CCC 1211 ).
