The Bible does not explicitly forbid or command cremation. While historical biblical practices favored burial as a symbol of resting to await the physical resurrection, New Testament hope guarantees that God's power is absolute—He will resurrect and perfect our physical bodies regardless of whether they were buried or cremated. Your physical body and future resurrection rest securely under the absolute custody of the Creator, who rules over both life and dry dust. No cremation or earthly practice can ever hinder His hands from reconstructing your frame in magnificent, imperishable glory. Our hope is anchored solely in His raising voice, ensuring that our spirit and future physical renewal are perfectly preserved.
