Some may wonder what is the scriptural reference to this Tradition. Although Tradition created the Bible and not the Bible creating Tradition, here it is:
"Is any among you sick? Let him call for the presbyters of the Church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord; and the prayer of faith will save the sick man, and the Lord will raise him up; and if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven"
(James 5:14-15).
