Here's a simple question: If Moses was chosen to be the bearer of the old covenant, and Mary was chosen to be the bearer of the new covenant, than why wouldn't Mary be assumed like Moses? They both were obviously chosen by God for a very specific and important purpose. Why would one be assumed and not the other?

Huh?

Joshua 1:1  Now after the death of Moses the servant of the LORD it came to pass, that the LORD spake unto Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' minister, saying,
2  Moses my servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, thou, and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel.

Where does it say that Moses was assumed, whatever that is supposed to mean? Taken up into heaven I suppose. The bible states that Moses died and God buried him. Jesus Christ was stated to be the mediator of the New Testament, not Mary. I don't care to fight about it, but I have never understood how anyone could believe that Mary was divine. Aren't you taught to believe in the trinity, which you seem to negate by assigning divinity to a human being.
