Should Christian Families Bury or Cremate?

There is a lot of cremation done in the Christian church. I am not keen on it. I am not saying there is a firm biblical teaching against it, but I did a piece for Baptist Press a number of years ago where I listed 10 reasons why I favored the other.

 

Our hymnody is full of it... "up from the grave he arose." It's not like in the ashes co-alest from the winds. You know. There are just so many reasons that seem to suggest that physical burial of a body is optimum.
