• True

• False

Answer explanation

God's love isn't earned by us, is it? No. God gives it to us freely simply because we exist. The sacraments are the same way-we must choose to act on the graces given to us by these sacraments but they are freely given to us, not earned. The church is careful about preparation for these sacraments but that does not mean we are "earning" them. Simply, that we are now prepared to act on those graces from the sacraments well.
