Cremation

Juan F. Negron had thought cremation was acceptable to God, but then he began to have doubts.
After reading a pamphlet about cremation, he realized that he had been looking at cremation from his own point of view and not as the Lord sees it. Something told him he had to pass on what he learned to other believers.
In Genesis 3:19, God said, "In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return."
According to divine precept and example, there is but one Christian way to dispose of our dead, and that is to bury them.
If you want God to sanctify your body, remember that by intentionally burning your body, the body is destroyed and God has no one to raise, resurrect, nor your body change (see 1 Corinthians 15:51-52). When you opt for cremation, you treat the body as a temporary thing.
Rather than give our consent to destroy God's property in the oven of a crematorium, every loved one should be affectionately and carefully laid away whole in the ground like the body of our Savior.
