The Blessed Virgin Mary did not Ascend into Heaven as Our Lord did, but she was Assumed by the will of Christ. This happened because The Blessed Virgin Mary was the Mother of God, and as such, was given the honor of being the prime mortal example for all of humanity as she was born without sin (called the Immaculate Conception) and was Assumed into Heaven body and soul as we all will be at the second coming of Christ.

∙ 8y agoAs the Scriptures themselves tell us, not everything is written down, and the New Testament was not written until many years after Our Blessed Lord's Ascension into heaven, nor formed, as we have it today, until centuries later. The Bible, specifically the New Testament, was written as a preaching tool, NOT as a compendium of Christian doctrine. No dogma may contradict Scripture, but it is not all contained in Scripture, that is a protestant heresy.

∙ 10y agoWhen Mary's time on earth came to an end, Mary was taken directly into heaven, body and soul, by God. Her body was not subjected to corruption. The Church doctrine of the Assumption of Mary leaves open the question whether Mary was assumed without undergoing death or did she die a natural death and then her body was assumed a short time afterwards and reunited with her body in heaven.
