Q&A Home > S > Saints

I read on the website that no one is in Heaven. Does that include St. Mary and all the other saints?

Before the death of our Lord Jesus Christ on the Cross, every person who died was automatically taken by Satan to Hades. By the Lord Jesus Christ's death on the Holy Cross, the righteous captives were freed from Satan and taken from Hades to Paradise. From then on, every righteous including St. Mary and all the saints are in Paradise awaiting the Second Coming of our Lord to go to Heaven after that.
