Assumption: She Died and Is Now Assumed into Heaven youtube

About this sermon

On the Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, we contemplate one of the most beautiful mysteries of the Catholic Faith: Did the Virgin Mary die before she was assumed body and soul into Heaven? Although Pope Pius XII’s solemn definition of the Dogma of the Assumption did not definitively settle the question of Our Lady’s death, ancient Eastern and Western Christian tradition strongly witnesses to Mary completing her earthly life before being gloriously assumed into Heaven. But Our Lady’s death was unlike any ordinary death. According to a beautiful tradition reflected upon by saints and theologians, Mary—immaculate, sinless, and perfectly united to the will of God—did not simply succumb to the corruption of fallen human nature. Her life had become so completely consumed by divine charity that she died of love. Her suffering had already reached its terrible spiritual climax beneath the Cross, where she united herself to the Passion and death of her Divine Son. Then, at the completion of her earthly pilgrimage, the Mother of God was taken body and soul into Heaven, where Christ crowned her Queen of Heaven and Earth. Yet Mary’s Assumption did not separate her from her spiritual children. From Heaven, Our Lady continues to turn toward the earth—to intercede, protect, instruct, fight for her children, and lead souls to Jesus Christ. Her maternal mission continues throughout Christian history and is dramatically manifested in events such as Our Lady of Fatima. As Scripture beautifully says: “Come over to me, all ye that desire me, and be filled with my fruits.” — Ecclesiasticus 24 May the Feast of the Assumption deepen our love for the Blessed Virgin Mary and, through her, lead us into greater union with her Divine Son. Our Lady assumed into Heaven, pray for us. Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us. Queen of Heaven and Earth, pray for us. 00:00 Light, Heat & the Crucible of the Martyr 00:25 “Who Is This That Cometh Up From the Desert?” 00:37 The Great Feast of the Assumption 00:58 Mary’s Death and Her Assumption 01:06 Did the Blessed Virgin Mary Die? 01:14 Pope Pius XII & the Dogma of the Assumption 01:32 Eastern & Western Tradition on Mary’s Death 01:56 Why Would the Sinless Virgin Choose Death? 02:18 Ancient Liturgical Witness to Mary’s Death 02:36 The Byzantine Liturgy on Mary’s Incorrupt Body 03:06 The Saints on Mary’s Death & Resurrection 03:30 The Mystery of Mary’s Final Death 03:44 Mary’s Spiritual Death at Calvary 04:10 Our Lady’s Final Moments on Earth 04:20 Mary Died of Love 04:43 Why Mary Could No Longer Remain in This World 05:02 Mary Had Outgrown the World 05:26 Assumed Body and Soul Into Heaven 05:47 Mary Crowned Queen of Heaven and Earth 06:03 Why Mary Turns Back Toward the Earth 06:29 “Behold Thy Son, Behold Thy Mother” 06:36 Our Lady’s Mission From Heaven 06:58 Mary Protects Those Who Belong to Her 07:09 Our Lady of Fatima 07:55 The Miracle of the Sun 08:46 Fatima & Mary’s Mission for Souls 09:23 Ecclesiasticus 24 & the Blessed Virgin Mary 09:43 “Come Over to Me, All Ye That Desire Me” 10:34 Why Catholics Should Be Devoted to Mary 10:42 Jesus Shares His Love for His Mother 11:23 Join the Faithful | Sensus Fidelium App For more please visit http://reginaecclesiae.com/ & remember to say 3 Hail Marys for the priest 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 ✝️ SUPPORT THE MISSION 🙏 Donate https://sensusfidelium.com/donate-support/ 📬 Free Catholic Newsletter https://sensusfidelium.com/newsletter/ 📰 Read on Substack https://sensusfidelium.substack.com/ ──────────────────── 📺 WATCH & READ 📺 Sensus Fidelium App https://sensusfidelium.tv/ 📚 Sensus Fidelium Press https://sensusfideliumpress.com/ 👕 Official Merchandise https://sensusfidelium.com/merchandise/ ──────────────────── 🤝 PARTNER WITH US 📣 Advertise on Sensus Fidelium https://sensusfidelium.com/advertise-with-sensus-fidelium/ 🎤 Invite Steve Cunningham to Speak https://sensusfidelium.com/speaking/ ⛪ Parish Formation & Consultation https://sensusfidelium.com/for-parishes/ ──────────────────── 🌎 CATHOLIC COMMUNITY ✝️ Trusted Catholic Businesses https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-businesses/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 #AssumptionOfMary #BlessedVirginMary #VirginMary #OurLady #MotherOfGod #Catholic #CatholicFaith #CatholicChurch #CatholicTradition #CatholicSermon #CatholicHomily #MarianDevotion #QueenOfHeaven #OurLadyOfFatima #ImmaculateHeartOfMary #TraditionalCatholic #CatholicTeaching #Catholicism #SensusFidelium
