St. Joseph
« on: March 19, 2021, 06:29:09 AM »
I hold that St. Joseph:

1) was sanctified immediately after conception (like St. John the Baptist but earlier).

2) never committed a sin (even venial) his entire life.

3) was assumed into Heaven.

There's no known tomb of St. Joseph and no relics.  I believe that he lay incorrupt after his death until the time of Our Lady's Assumption and that he was assumed into Heaven right after Our Lady so he could be present for her coronation.

Well, I don't know about the relics.  We have a verified 2nd class relic of his robe.

OK, but I clearly meant first-class relics.

St. Francis de Sales:
Quote
How could we doubt that Our Lord raised glorious St. Joseph up into Heaven, body and soul? For he had the honor and grace of carrying Him so often in his blessed arms, arms in which Our Lord took so much pleasure. St. Joseph is therefore in Heaven body and soul, without a doubt.    

St. Bernardino of Sienna:  
Quote
In the same way that Mary was assumed into Heaven, it is thought that Jesus deigned to glorify Joseph. In this way, all of the Holy Family – Jesus, Mary and Joseph – who lived together on Earth, would reign together in Heaven.

If I remember correctly, the Blessed Mother said nothing of the sort to Mary of Agreda. Moreover, I'd be worried about any personal belief that XavierSem agrees with.
