I’m not saying that one should worship a handkerchief, a robe, or a shroud as objects. But items connected to holy people can be venerated.

I'll bet that when Paul discarded the cloth that it no longer had healing powers...And I'll bet that when Jesus' robe was discarded, no one after was ever healed from touching it...

I have no doubt that many people touched Jesus robe while he was wearing it who were never healed of anything...

“I’ll bet that when Paul discarded the cloth that it no longer had healing powers”

You’re welcome to your opinion but doesn’t the Scripture suggest Paul already wasn’t in the presence of these relics which were even exercising demons?

“So extraordinary we’re the mighty deeds God accomplished at the hands of Paul that when face cloths or aprons that TOUCHED his skin were applied to the sick, their diseases left them and the evil spirits came out of them.
-Acts 19:11,12
