Subject: What does the Bible say about cremation? |
Bible Note: I would also add that we are to treat our bodies as a temple and my look on that is, again my opinion because it is true the bible does not say either way but I can't wrap my mind around having my body burned vs being buried. I just keep remembering Shadrach Meshach and Abednego. Even though they walked through the fire unharmed, the fire was for punishment and death and that's one reason I am not in favor of cremation however, if it is all a person can afford, I don't believe it matters to the Lord because our souls leave our bodies and we are given new ones in heaven. I hope that makes you feel a little better about the question. |
