58: What Is a Sacrament (and Are They Even Real?)

What exactly is a sacrament, and does the Bible teach anything about them? In this episode, we explore the history behind the concept of sacraments—where the word came from, how it evolved, and why so many churches treat certain rituals as uniquely grace-giving.

You’ll learn why the New Testament never mentions sacraments, how the early church adopted the term sacramentum, and why the seven-sacrament system wasn’t formalized until the 12th century. We’ll also compare how Protestants and Catholics use the term differently—and why that distinction may be more semantic than biblical.

If you’ve ever wondered whether sacraments are essential or even scriptural, this episode will help you separate tradition from truth and rethink how we honor God through obedience.
