If the debt was listed, it was discharged.  The creditor does not lose the right to repossess the colateral and likely closed the account and retained the collateral upon entry of the discharge order and final decree closing the case.  If there was property for the trustee to liquidate to pay creditors, the secured creditor may not have filed a claim because they were paid in full from the collateral.
