Thank-you and God Bless for standing up for what is true and good.
What does that have to do with the question at hand? God gave us a prohibition in the ten commandments that was never rescinded. Idolaters are still condemned in the New Testament, so there is direct evidence that it, in fact was not rescinded. You can cite all the verses you want about funeral rites, or miraculous healings delivered in various ways by God, or honoring other people, but none of that serves to counteract God’s commandments.
