So since the Catholic Church so meticulously assembled the scripture could you show us where in scripture they put the teaching of the assumption of Mary?

many things happened in the church as time went by. If you believe 'sola scriptura" then you can't handle the assumption. Christ protects the church from error in matters of faith and morals. "What you shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven". The members of the early church taught that Mary had been assumed, and had every reason to believe that it happened. I am certain that if you research on Google or wherever else, you will be able to find the documentation that the church used in reaching their conclusion. The church also teaches the immaculate conception, meaning that Mary was born without original sin....another one for you to ponder.

You don’t say. You mean that was added by man later? Go figure.

Early church you say! So the Catholic Church claims the apostles knew of the assumption of Mary and said nothing of it? No, the “early church” did not teach that. The “early church” were the apostles and the people they brought to Christ.

I don’t need to ponder long at all. Scripture says the Christ was the only sinless human who ever lived.

2 Corinthians 5:21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

1 King 8:46 If they sin against thee, (for there is no man that sinneth not,) and thou be angry with them, and deliver them to the enemy, so that they carry them away captives unto the land of the enemy, far or near;

If you want to believe the error of the Catholic Church but I’ll stay with scripture and the Holy Spirit as a guide.

Nothing to ponder...None of it is true...

Isn't it kind of sacrilegious to say or write church without using your capital C (Church)???

There is no history of the earliest church fathers in support of anything you posted...In fact, the fantasy grew hair as it aged...Seems each generation of Catholics embellished the stories as time went on...
