I. Its Foundations in the Economy of Salvation
1506
Christ invites his disciples to follow him by taking up their cross in their
turn.113 By following him they acquire a new outlook on illness and the
sick. Jesus associates them with his own life of poverty and service. He makes
them share in his ministry of compassion and healing: “So they went out
and preached that men should repent. and they cast out many demons, and
anointed with oil many that were sick and healed them.”114
