The sin of cremation.
If at any point in your life you have thought about what you want done with your body after death and at those moments you have considered the fact that your body is cremated or incinerated, it is good that you have all the information.
Although this topic may be shocking, it is something we must think about at some point because death is a reality of life.
That said, many of us focus only on earthly life, but only a few think about the spiritual life we live after life here on earth.
The Bible does not include specific scriptures about cremation. Although burial is the traditional option for Christians, the Bible does not prohibit cremation. Most religions accept cremation.
Religions may reject cremation because of the belief that the body will be resurrected when Jesus Christ returns. Cremating a loved one would mean there is no body to be resurrected. Christians may consider such beliefs irrelevant, according to the New Testament scriptures.
There are many schools of thought regarding cremation. Some believe that, although cremation is not considered a sin , Christians should strive to follow the examples set forth in the Bible. Others agree that the Lord will raise the dead, regardless of whether they are cremated or buried. Burial is the traditional option for Christians, but cremation is growing in popularity.
