I. Its Foundations in the Economy of Salvation

From The Catechism of the Catholic Church

1505
Moved by so much suffering Christ not only allows himself to be touched by the
sick, but he makes their miseries his own: “He took our infirmities and
bore our diseases.”¹¹¹ But he did not heal all the sick. His
healings were signs of the coming of the Kingdom of God. They announced a more
radical healing: the victory over sin and death through his Passover. On the
cross Christ took upon himself the whole weight of evil and took away the
“sin of the world,”¹¹² of which illness is only a
consequence. By his passion and death on the cross Christ has given a new
meaning to suffering: it can henceforth configure us to him and unite us with
his redemptive Passion.
