As the Apostles prayed and watched, Mary died and later was taken into Heaven, body and soul. Some believe this and some do not. I do.
But make no mistake, this is not just a Catholic belief. Martin Luther also believed in the Assumption of Mary, as did the great Protestant reformer H. Bullinger.
Why wouldn’t Mary be Assumed in to Heaven. Assumed simply means that God took Mary’s body up into Heaven with Her soul. Why wouldn’t He?
Imagine how much God must have loved Mary. How much Jesus must have loved His mother! She followed their Will always. She walked with them Daily. No matter what the Cost, no matter how much Pain or Suffering, Mary was always Faithful and always Willing. A True Temple of the Holy Spirit, Mary loved us all and She has never stopped 🙂
Of course, God would want to do something special for Mary!
