"And yet...Mary's bodily assumption is never mentioned."

The most you can claim is that the Assumption of Mary is not explicitly mentioned, but you cannot claim is it denied or impossible. It is one of those doctrines, like the Trinity, that are implicit in Scripture. God felt it important to introduce the doctrine of bodily assumption. The application of that doctrine to one already judged "Kachiratomene" is obvious to those who believe.

Nor is it implicitly mentioned...And it IS denied and IS impossible...

It is one of those doctrines, like the Trinity, that are implicit in Scripture.It may be implicit for those of you who do not believe the scriptures but for the sheep, it's explicit...

It is hard to get used to tho...I can sit here and look at some scriptures that describe the Trinity and you can come along and say, 'it's not there...I don't see it'...

God left us some scriptures that explain how and why that happens, but ya really hate to think God really would blind the eyes of some folks so they wouldn't see the truth...
