Cremation is NOT a sin.
The Bible does not explicitly prohibit or endorse cremation. It offers various references, emphasizing the temporary nature of our physical bodies and the importance of our spiritual existence.

What happens to a body during cremation?
The cremation process for humans takes between 1.5 and 2 hours. The body is placed in a retort, which is then heated to between 1400 and 1800 degrees Fahrenheit. At this temperature, the body burns, and the bones turn to ash. After the body has been cremated, the ashes are placed in an urn and returned to the family.
Why do you have to wait 3 days before cremation?
In addition, the wait time provides an opportunity for the body to be inspected for contagious diseases. Once these legal and health concerns have been addressed, the body can be cremated. The three-day waiting period may seem like a burden, but it serves an important purpose.
