Why did the Virgin Mary die?

[jasperg357]

If Adam And Eve died physically and spiritually after they both sinned why did the Virgin Mary die if she was born without sin and never sinned?

 

[Fr.Vincent_Serpa]

Hi,

We don’t know if Mary died or not. The Church has not made a clarification on this. It is possible that she did. Our Lord was born without original sin and He certainly died. On the other hand, it is possible that Our Lady did not die. In either case, the Church DOES teach that she was taken up, body and soul to heaven.

Fr. Vincent Serpa, O.P.
