We know that the assumption of Mary is not taught in scripture.

You "know" something that I don't acknowledge, then. Revelation chapter 12. Remember: I have just as much right to interpret Scripture for myself as you do.

I don't interpret scripture. I let scripture do that. If you think the sign in Revelation 12 is Mary then you run into problems with Old Testament prophesy.

You can start with Genesis 37 where the stars bow down. Throughout scripture Israel is spoken of as a woman who will bring forth a man child. Isaiah 54. Isaiah 66 says Zion travailed and gave birth to a man child. The woman in Revelation 12 is Israel.

**Revelation chapter 12. Remember: I have just as much right to interpret Scripture for myself as you do.**

Not only do you interpret scripture FOR YOURSELF, you cut the story of the ‘woman’ off before verse six. So is verse 6 another ‘woman’?

While you are interpreting, please interpret as to why NEITHER Jesus Christ, NOR his apostles EVER used the phrase ‘God the Son’. They always used the phrase ‘Son of God’.

(are you ‘Tennessee the Campion’, or ‘Campion of Tennessee’?)
