What were the sacraments intended for?

July 13, 2025 Day 194
The twenty-eighth question in our catechism is:
“What were the sacraments intended for?”
The answer is:
“The sacraments were intended to be used, not merely observed. They are only effective in those who receive them by faith.”
cf. 1 Corinthians 11:23-29 and Article 25.
