“Although it is true that the eternal state of one’s soul is of utmost importance, and one’s dead, decayed body will ultimately not really matter since there has been promised a new body at the resurrection, Scripture still reveals a clear respect for the bodies of the dead. Bodies, alive or dead, have been created by God, for His glory, and in His image.” In "Cremation versus Burial: Why it Matters", Samantha Bender argues that burying the dead, rather than burning their bodies is a valuable way to show respect.
