Actually that's not correct. The official position of the Roman Catholic Church is that they don't rightly know. But then they have writings that describe how the apostles were present at her death an assumption but use that officially or something. But then to add to that they have the feast of the "dormition" of Mary. Dormition = death. So on any given day you could get any of those positions from a Catholic. Any wonder why Catholics don't know for sure if they are saved?
>>Now we know that this type of thing happened at least twice in the Old Testament - Enoch and Elijah.<<
And was well documented like you said. But consider this. Ever wonder who the two witnesses will be who are killed and left in the street for 3 days?
>>Out of the 5 books written by John, never was anything written about Mary<<
Not only that but there is absolutely no information either from secular writers or religious writers about her after the day of pentecost. Not one word about where she spent her last days. Evidently she was inconsequential to anyone from that time.
What is a Prot like yourself answering this for?
