Cremation is an ancient babylonic practice its done as a way to worship moloch, so yes the Lord forbids cremation and things as such, look up verses that mention moloch or baalim. God bless

Does it say in the bible, that we should't be cremated.

Bill sometimes those words meaning Lord or King is associated with satanism.

Baal meant Lord and was so associated with satanism the Lord said not to call him that anymore.

Judges 2:13 And they forsook the LORD, and served Baal and Ashtaroth.

Judges 8:33 And it came to pass, as soon as Gideon was dead, that the children of Israel turned again, and went a whoring after Baalim, and made Baalberith their god.

Jeremiah 19:5 They have built also the high places of Baal, to burn their sons with fire for burnt offerings unto Baal, which I commanded not, nor spake it, neither came it into my mind: (CHILD SACRIFICES)

Hosea 2:16 And it shall be at that day, saith the LORD, that thou shalt call me Ishi; and shalt call me no more Baali.

1 Kings 11:5 For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Zidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.

2 Kings 23:13 And the high places that were before Jerusalem, which were on the right hand of the mount of corruption, which Solomon the king of Israel had builded for Ashtoreth the abomination of the Zidonians, and for Chemosh the abomination of the Moabites, and for Milcom the abomination of the children of Ammon, did the king defile.

What is this "original Hebrew" stuff? Do you want to call the God of Heaven a name associated with Devils?

Why use Milcom instead of king from the original Hebrew and the immediate or other context?
