Formal Definition of the Seven Sacraments
Weak source match. The Church’s teaching stands on its own authority. This meter only grades how faithfully Catholic Context restates the cited source.
Summary
At the Second Council of Lyon in 1274 and the Council of Florence in 1439, the Church formally defined the number of sacraments as seven — Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist, Penance, Anointing of the Sick, Holy Orders, and Matrimony — settling a question that had been debated for centuries.
