II. The Signs and the Rite of Confirmation
1296
Christ himself declared that he was marked with his Father’s seal.107
Christians are also marked with a seal: “It is God who establishes us with
you in Christ and has commissioned us; he has put his seal on us and given us
his Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.”108 This seal of the Holy
Spirit marks our total belonging to Christ, our enrollment in his service for
ever, as well as the promise of divine protection in the great eschatological
trial.109
