To give our readers an idea of the breadth and width of the issues discussed, we are documenting here questions and answers from the November and December issues of the church magazine last year. The resurrection of believers is one of the fundamental aspects of our faith. In the Bible it often mentions how the Lord preserves our bones so that we may be resurrected in the future, such as in Ezekiel 37 where it is recorded that the dry bones came to life. He guards every bone of his body, and not one of them will be broken. The Bible doesn't mention whether incinerated human bones can be resurrected.
Death means the separation of a person's spirit from their body.
The body is the spirit's temporary and short term dwelling place on this earth and the body can decay. After people die, the body will decay of its own accord, although the skeleton decays a little slower than the other parts but, under normal conditions, it too will decompose in the end and become a part of matter. Therefore, the Bible says that a person's body comes from dust and after death returns to the dust. Because the population of the earth is increasing at an alarming rate, using cremation to deal with corpses is already becoming more and more common today. It is beneficial to the environment and the maintenance of public health, and it greatly preserves natural resources.
