In today’s world, people often choose cremation for practical reasons, including affordability, environmental impact, or personal wishes. As a result, many Christian denominations have adopted a more flexible position. The Catholic Church, for instance, allows cremation as long as it does not symbolize rejection of belief in the bodily resurrection.
Conclusion
In the end, the Bible does not clearly denounce cremation or define it as a sin. The decision between burial and cremation is best guided by personal conscience, faith, and thoughtful spiritual counsel. Above all, Christian belief rests not in the method of burial, but in trust in God’s promise of resurrection and eternal life.
