What does the Bible say about a Christian attending funerals of other faiths that will be preaching a message different from Christian?
Right now I'm wrestling with a question: Should I attend my cousin's funeral who is a Jehovah's witness, where a different message will be preached other than the Gospel of Jesus Christ?

The Bible doesn't speak specifically to this type of situation. I believe that it is a matter that you should ask the Holy Spirit about and allow Him to direct your path. It sounds like this is a matter of your personal conviction. Is it something that your conscience will bother you about going to your cousin's funeral? In my opinion I don't see anything wrong with you going. I believe we should show the love of God irregardless to someone's beliefs. Will it cause you to stop believing the truth of the Bible? Probably not!
