God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Since we believe in the resurrection of the body, we do not see a corpse as garbage. From the time of our earliest ancestors in the faith, we have buried our dead, committing them to the earth from which they came with the conviction that they will one day be summoned from it once more. The image of sleep is useful—not because the dead are unconscious but because they will one day be awakened. God deems as faith Joseph committing his bones to his brothers for future transport into the land of promise. In the same way the act of burial is a testimony of the entire community to the resurrection of the body. Cremation is a horrifying testimony of the burning up of the flesh and bones, a testimony that is decidedly pagan in both origin and in practice. Of course, God can resurrect a cremated Christian (or a Christian torn to pieces by lions, etc.), but how we deal with the body of a Christian teaches us - and the watching world - what we really believe about the gospel. Cremation ought then to be shunned by those who hope in Christ.

I owe this one to a very fine Chicago chef, Michael Foley. He has several
restaurants in the Windy City and I am one of his fans. He adds fresh
ginger to a good heavy chili and serves it as a first course.
You do the same by adding 2 or 3 tablespoons of grated fresh ginger to
"Emily's Chili Con Carne with Beans" recipe in this cookbook. I also throw
in a glass of red wine.
This will surprise your most severe chili critic.
