Question
Is there a place in the Bible that God says we are not to be cremated?
Dear Janet,
No, there is not. Many seem to think so and teach it, but that is totally wrong. Many Christians were burnt at the stake or died in fires one way or another, fed to lions, etc., God is not interested in the body of flesh just as he has told us not to be.
Hope this helps,
Paul Walker

Expertise
The Bible contains an answer to all things necessary to life and salvation. We many times simple do not like the answer it gives. But, if your seeking the truth of God`s word, I can give my opinion and show from the Scriptures the basis for why I believe it is the correct interpretation of the Bible on most questions.

I have been a student of the Bible for over 25 years.
