Sacraments and Human Nature


     All of man contains within them a common nature, and because of Original Sin, man also has concupiscence  or a tendency to sin. Luckily, God did not forget or abandon us, he gave us His son and the Sacrament. The Sacraments help combat our sinful natures, they allow us to come closer to God by giving us grace. The Sacrament of Reconciliation  helps cleanse ourselves of sin, and the Sacrament of Baptism washes away Original Sin. All of the seven Sacraments correspond and help combat certain flaws in our human nation. They allow us to become closer to God, and most importantly, to be saved.
