Concerning the sacraments of the Catholic Church, Luther

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Luther rejected all of the sacraments except for baptism and communion, also known as the Lord's Supper. He argued that the other five sacraments (confirmation, penance, holy orders, matrimony, and extreme unction) were not sacraments in the true sense because they were not instituted by Christ and did not have a visible sign of grace. He also reduced the importance of the sacraments, arguing that they were not necessary for salvation and that faith alone was enough.
