I read all the replys on the topic of "cremation" and observed that almost all find no scriptural support to declare that cremation is unBibical. Most people cited the case of King Saul, and how his body was burned. However I cannot find one instance of any godly person in Scripture who chose for himself cremation. Now I too believe that God can ressurect the body whether it is burned or buried. I realize that many godly men and women were burned at the stake. However they did not choose to be burned. So my question is, should a believer who has the option of burial or cremation, choose cremation or Christian burial. And I even recognize that the term "Christian burial" has no Scriptural support. Anyone have any thoughts on this? |

This is a previously discussed question ... Yes, we should be able to choose what they do with our body when we die. |

Searcher Yes, I know this is a previously discussed topic. That is why I mentioned that I had read all the replys on this topic. I know the majority say that if one desires to be cremated that they can do so without violating God's word. What I desired to ask was the following. Since there is no scriptural text which actually says that cremation is neither unBibical or Bibical, I then look at Bibical example of godly individuals in the Bible to see if any of them chose cremation for theirselves rather than burial. I find no evidence in Scripture that any godly person chose cremation over burial. So when I cannot support a practice with the actual text, shouldn't Bibical example or role model be an example for Christian practice. I would love to hear from others. |

Is electricity mentioned in the Bible? Are we to refuse to use things that run on electricity because they are not mentioned? That is the reasoning of the 'Plain' people (Amish, Hutterites, Doukabors, etc.). | ||||||
