Origin of Sacred Chrism (Pope Saint Fabian)
Pope Fabian writes: “Our predecessors received from the Apostles and delivered to us that our Saviour Jesus Christ, after having made the Last Supper with his Apostles and washed their feet, taught them how to prepare the Holy Chrism” (Pope Saint Fabian, Second Epistle to the Bishops of the East, para. 54.)
Pope Innocent I also said that Sacred Chrism was the essential matter for the sacrament of Confirmation (Saint Innocent I, Ep. ad Decent.). No Chrism? No sacrament. (Catechism of the Catholic Church para. 1320 also confirms that Sacred Chrism is essential.)
