Guest guest Report post Posted September 18, 2006 From my Episcopal memory has been a prodding - chrism - I googled the word and found a few very fitting references. The early councils of the Church have also references to chrism as something set apart for sacred purposes and making for the sanctification of men. Eugene IV, in his famous " Instruction for the Armenians " (Bull " Exultate Deo " , apud Denzinger, " Enchiridion " , p. 160) asserts that chrism is the matter of the Sacrament of Confirmation. Chrism, thank you for being here, it seems you are set apart (another very biblical term) for sacred purposes and for man and woman kind's sanctification and confirmation. I for one, will second that! Love, Grace and Peace to you Chrism, Ray Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
