If the work is denounced as heretical, then why is the Catholic church using it to support its doctrine of the assumption of Mary?
What is the basis of it being heretical? IIRC, the work in question taught that it was written by John the Apostle. Since we have no evidence of writings from John other than the Gospel, 1,2,3 John and Revelation, this would lean towards its claims of being written by an Apostle false and so heresy. It does not establish that every claim made in the work is heresy.

(Mary is understood by the heart, not study of scripture.)

Are YOU Sola to make YOUR case?
I guess it's true: The Protestants are influencing Catholicism WAY too much!
