The ads weren’t targeting non-believers. The ads were targeted at Christian’s by their enemies.
That''s the sense of Sprit I got as well. Their colored glasses made the message fall flat. Let The Word be The Word.
Yup. Ironically, this was essentially a HATE message targeted towards Christians' supposed hypocrisy.
Yep !
You're absolutely right
Soros funded ill bet .
Whenever Jesus confronted sinners He would say, “Go, and sin no more.” He never said, “Go, and I support you in your lifestyle choice.”
When you go to war against your enemies and the Lord your God delivers them into your hands and you take captives, 11 if you notice among the captives a beautiful woman and are attracted to her, you may take her as your wife. 12 Bring her into your home and have her shave her head, trim her nails 13 and put aside the clothes she was wearing when captured. After she has lived in your house and mourned her father and mother for a full month, then you may go to her and be her husband and she shall be your wife. 14 If you are not pleased with her, let her go wherever she wishes. You must not sell her or treat her as a slave, since you have dishonored her.
Best comment yet.
@@TalosArc-ld8of Wow. If this is true, ancient Israelites were really considerate and respectful towards their conquered enemies. The normal thing in the bronze age was to rape and pillage, not to give your enemies room for mourning or letting captured women go whereever they wish instead of keeping them as slaves. That's wild!
Said in its simplest form
@@GaryCrant It's not wild, this is the word of the Lord. every Christian knows this.
That ad was promoting a false gospel. And we all know what the Bible says about those who preach a false gospel...
That’s blasphemy!
Please tell me, what is the true gospel?
@@b.j.anderson4476the Bible and only the Bible and everything in it. They are teaching leftist ideas that do not align truthfully with the Bible
It is lies and decent
@@b.j.anderson4476Jesus has come to save us. He is the only path to salvation.
I think my biggest takeaway from this is that the commercial repeatedly depicts the foot-washer being humbled rather than the other way around.
And isn't that the point?
@@debbaker1801
Bit deeper than that. Considering that in the context of Christ washing the feet of his disciples it's taken for granted that he is God incarnate. So you can't view it from the perspective of one person washing the feet of another but how it would feel if who you believed to be God started washing your feet. It's not meant to be an act of atonement. Which is what the commercial seems to be indicating. All these white people washing the feet of the oppressed to atone for the sins of our ancestors and the very "sin" of being born white. It's message is confused and muddled to say the least.
@@debbaker1801 Wonder why having his feet washed by Jesus humbled Peter though. He didn't want Jesus to wash his feet until Jesus said, "Unless I wash you, you have no part in me."
Let us not forget that a sinful woman was washing Jesus’ feet with her hair and tears. How she wept at her sin and repented and worshipped Him. She showed us how we should feel about our sin and cause us to weep at the feet of Jesus. Rather than the narrative being displayed to “love the sinner”. To truly love a sinner is to call them to repent and weep at His feet and sin no more.
Your exactly right.
Amen
Greatest Comment For The Interpretation Of Biblical Verses Summed Up Quickly.
So true. And it had absolutely nothing to do with race. Those who view the world through race are, themselves, the racists.
This is totally the point of the story. That commercial is a twisting of the gospel.
Jesus washed the feet of His disciples as an example of humility. Politics and virtue signaling had NOTHING to do with it. That commercial was blasphemous and disgusting.
💯
That was the point of the commercial, he washes everyone’s feet, even if their politics are bad.
@@Thejjay005 Which is NOT what Jesus is about or what Christianity is about. That's a 3rd Grade child's level of understanding.
@@Thejjay005 He won't be washing feet when he returns.
Washing the feet of one another is a sign of Christ like humility and love in the person doing the washing. It actually is a beautiful thing. Showing humility and love should be something we all do. It does not mean we condone what others do, only that we love them. Christ did not condone sin. We are to pray for all people, even our enemies. The choices of the people that were choosen in the ad actually show that they must believe white people have more humility than others, just as Jesus had. In truth there are people of all races who have Christ like humility, not just white people.
Looking at the commercial, all of the washees look like they feel like they DESERVE to have their feet washed by the washers. Their expressions are haute and looking down their nose at the washer. When Jesus humbled himself to wash his followers feet it highlighted for his followers his willingness to lift us up from our lowly lives and make us all worthy of respect, not by disrespecting himself but in putting himself into their position. This ad makes it look like they *deserve* this treatment, and we should all kiss their little toes. The other point was that, in society then, most of us *were* undeserving of such treatment, but Christ loved us so much, he did it anyway.
ALL of us were undeserving of His humility
Jeremiah 14:14
Then the LORD said to me, “The prophets are prophesying lies in my name. I have not sent them or appointed them or spoken to them. They are prophesying to you false visions, divinations, idolatries and the delusions of their own minds."
2 Timothy 4:3
For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.
Matthew 7:15
“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves."
Jesus wouldn't have washed their feet. He would have told them to go and sin no more. Then they would have called him a bigot for saying they are sinners.
Leftist/Lib psyop.
Legit
No he would have given them a brush and a bowl so they could wash their own feet.
I don't purport to know what Jesus would and would not have done. But i know it's our responsibility to love them. Not celebrate their behavior, but hope for their salvation. My own salvation was what led me to repentance, not the other way around.
I didn’t see anyone committing an actual sin but maybe I needed to look harder.Yes we are all sinners as Christ says.
I also missed the parts of the ad where the extreme purple haired screaming leftist was washing the feet of a born-again conservative Christian. Why do they make it sound like only one side receives hatred?
Maybe they were actually saying only one side has Christ like humility??? ❤
because only one side disproportionately does physical harm and one side predominantly only does vandalism idk what to tell you 😂
That is basically the narrative in a nutshell. Great observation
Because they wouldn't be Christian... They wouldn't do it.
...because... It was the extreme purple haired screaming leftists who paid for the Ad...
I hate these ads so much.
Then you hate the teachings of Christ the Lord
@@TealPanda7 But these ads don't give the full teachings of the Lord. Jesus preached forgiveness, but also repenting and turning away from sin. This propaganda does not.
I agree 100%! Where is the actual GOSPEL? There’s no message of sin, repentance, and conversion. Preaching the Gospel to the lost is what TRUE LOVE FOR YOUR NEIGHBORS look like.
Ah, dogmatic hypocrites…where would. Christianity be without these types? More Christian perhaps?
Just like hanging a Pride flag over a Church is celebrating sin.
Depends on the church. Some churches don’t have a problem with homosexuals.

The stern words of Jesus were never meant to be "inclusive". Jesus said, "For I have come to turn a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law-" This is not a hateful message, but one of a choice, because with Christ, one needs to choose which side of the fence they wish to be on. Jesus said, "He who is not with me is against me." This idea that God accepts all people, regardless of their beliefs or behaviors is totally against God's teachings. Being a Christian *divides* you from the rest of the world...
🔥💯
Spot on. Tolerance was never a Christian value. The path is narrow and few will find it. Too many people think being nice and being kind are one in the same. But not only are they not synonymous, they're often opposites.
Matt 10:34 “Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.”
Narrow is the gate and difficult is the way. -Matthew 7:13-14
@@Dan-pt2tnyep. This.
Jesus's message was not washing feet. And while He loved everybody, He didn't go around saying "you're unrepentantly sinning? Lemme wash your feet!"
' Jesus washed feet" implies washing feet was a regular MO he performed. No he did it one time as a gesture to his disciples (subordinates) to show he was not above them. So " Jesus didn't hate" (money changers?) " he washed feet" ( how regular did he do that?) both incorrect
You have brought to light the deceptive nature of this ad.Whter they know it or not these people are doing the devils work.Deceiving and being deceived
This was not made by people who read the Bible. Washing a neighbor's feet is NOT the same as permitting your children to partake in immorality or normalizing sin.
It's not a sin against them, it's a sin against you
They read the Torah
✝He Gets Us...but "They" don't get Him..
Washing your neighbors feet is a sin?
Amen!
The problem with snowflakes is they can't tell the difference between rejection and hate. Just because somebody doesn't like you or your lifestyle does not mean they hate you.
Well said!!!!
They deliberately set up those two options and only those two options. You either must endorse then or you are a hater. They don’t want to acknowledge any other position because it robs them of being a victim and feeling self-righteously able to attack you simply because you won’t be bullied to accept their agenda and values.
Exactly, I don't agree with certain people, I don't hate them I just wouldn't do what they do.
You’re calling people snowflakes but melted down at the possibility of Taylor Swift possibly endorsing Biden. I agree, this commercial as well as most other “he gets Us” commercials are lame. Jesus said it himself, he came here to separate father from son and mother from daughter. But y’all cry so hard because someone doesn’t share your own political opinions. Cry harder!!! CHIEFS KINGDOM!!!! TRUMP NATION RISE UP!!!!
They hate everyone who disagrees with them. That’s why they assume disagreement equals hate to normal people, too. They’re wrong, but that’s the explanation.
There is SO MUCH wrong in this "rebuttal." It is so indescribably intellectually dishonest.
It's actually hateful.
That's what happens when it's only done for clicks.
It was a very racist ad. Very anti-White and demeaning. I coiled in repulsiveness when I first saw it and thank you Matt for raising issue with this commercial. It was disgusting to me.
Them
Racist? How about the Halftime Show being pretty much all one race?
It rubbed me the wrong way because instead of spending the millions to produce a commercial that shares the gospel, they instead decided to produce an ad that shames Christians for not doing enough.
Edit: my point wasn't stated clearly, it bothers me because of the effect. If you produced a commercial targeting unbelievers with the gospel, you'd be spreading God's word to them and would likely have some number of people curious enough to pursue the truth. By making a commercial that targets Christians for not doing enough you're dogpiling in us, and it's reaching a smaller target demographic and also not really going to lead many people down to path of salvation. It was a wasted opportunity.
Nailed it
And they love the false narrative of "Judge not".
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from THEIR WICKED WAYS; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
their point is that left loves everyone while right hates....
@@cadejust6777 go read a history book then
"Go forth and sin no more" Jesus Christ. He didn't say, "Welcome to the abortuary, let me wash your feet"
Exactly. And that is implied with the "Family Planning Clinic".
He literally told everyone to wash the feet of strangers, he also said to give all your possessions away and that a rich person can’t get into heaven. You and Walsh are entirely against the teachings of JC
Please cite your scripture
I don't think that's what the commercial was communicating. I think it was saying rather than waste time raging on things let's live the gospel out by loving our enemies and do good to those who persecute us. It's a novel concept.
@samb8744 the Bible does not say Christians, you need to love everyone by adapting to the ways of the modern world. We are not going to compromise our beliefs over your feelings because you think it's okay to sin.
The same spirit behind Fiducia Supplicans drove this ad. Christ never affirmed people in their sin. He welcomed them and forgave them, but then he told them to go and sin no more.
Jesus was not an anything-goes hippie.
When someone makes AI generated pictures to put out a message, I have distrust about it.
Why not hire actual people to take those images?
The only thing problematic is that most people have zero knowledge of what washing feet meant.
@@tlw6932 I don’t think the ad could do any harm. Hopefully it inspires people to find out who Jesus is by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit
Exactly, Walsh doesn’t understand the basics, he even completely lied and got the exact opposite moral out of this story that Jesus meant.
It’s crazy how Walsh doesn’t understand that it’s a metaphor for how you need to treat everyone with respect and kindness, regardless of their politics or class
@@samb8744 pretty sure Matt knows the basics Where did he lie ? My point is there are messages for certain times and situations My take away is that Jesus is empathetic which the Bible teaches. He went threw what humans encounter Sometimes Jesus was very harsh Sometimes merciful , caring and healing the downtrodden. Hopefully the Holy Spirit will bring the fallen away back and the godless to belief
@@samb8744 Potentially. But tolerance is not a Christian value. It's actually often unkind and harmful throughout history.
@@christopherton *through
Do you even know what the disciples did???? Gave up their lives to FOLLOW JESUS!!!
Exactly. These people are consumed by their sin.
Very cult like.
In fact it is often those who decry 'hate' the loudest who feel the most hatred for others in their own hearts.
I'm not religious in the least, but this commercial offended me. I don't know much about Jesus, but I do know his job wasn't to wash the feet of criminals and prostitutes. The goal is to turn sinners towards God, not cater to them.
😂😂 oh shut up. You're practically cherry picking parts of Jesus message you don't like
Um, He did allow a prostitute to wash His feet. Be careful with your criticism...the Word is a double-edged sword.
"Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet. I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. Very truly I tell you, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them." - John 13:14-17
So yes, he did wash feet, including the feet of a traitor AND demanded his followers to follow his example!
But not not only that, he picked this gesture of 'washing feet' as expression of faith up form Mary Magdalena, a PROSTITUTE!
"When one of the Pharisees invited Jesus to have dinner with him, he went to the Pharisee’s house and reclined at the table. A woman in that town who lived a sinful life learned that Jesus was eating at the Pharisee’s house, so she came there with an alabaster jar of perfume. As she stood behind him at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears. Then she wiped them with her hair, kissed them and poured perfume on them." - Luke, 7:36-38
" Then he turned toward the woman and said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I came into your house. You did not give me any water for my feet, but she wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. You did not give me a kiss, but this woman, from the time I entered, has not stopped kissing my feet. 46 You did not put oil on my head, but she has poured perfume on my feet. Therefore, I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven-as her great love has shown. But whoever has been forgiven little loves little" - Luke, 7:44-47
Please stop talking about a teaching you know nothing about. Start washing people's feet. Like Jesus did.
Bravo. You summed that up better than most Christians. What is interesting is I've seen a number of non believers, incl. atheists, who also found this commercial either offensive or annoying. As an atheist put it, he saw this as nothing but a political agenda, not really evangelistic in nature.
Are you sure you are a non religious who doesn't know about Jesus? Because you nailed it!
Just in case anyone doesn't know what the term "virtue signaling" means, this ad is probably the best explanation.
Hate is always a one way street with these people.
Btw, Christ did not not teach that hate is bad. Without hate you cannot have love.
If you subscribe to doormat Christianity, you stand for nothing. Christianity is Good vs Evil, without identifying what is evil, you will never know what is Good.
Best comment!!!!
Doormat Christian is my new insult for woke Christians.
Acceptance of Evil is rather a blockage of possible repentance
That commercial made me so uncomfortable when I was watching it. I was confused and just didn't get it. I'm glad I'm not the only one.
As a Bible teacher, I agree 100% with this assessment of the "He gets us" campaign. I would just add that the modern equivalent is a pastor cleaning up a mess in the church because the janitor was sick. People 2000 years ago walked around barefoot and the custom was to send a servant to the door and wash the feet of house guests before they came in. This was to prevent the street dirt from messing up the house. It was not something people of Jesus' caliber did. It was an object lesson for the disciples not to be high and mighty, but meek and lowly, like Jesus.
Exactly.
And even more, Jesus told His disciples the foot-washing made them clean (i.e. baptism), but "not all" in reference to Judas.
My reaction to the ad was nausea. Shallow, virtue signaling crap.
If not pointed out i likely would never notice. I never noticed the commercial but get to hear about it. Sure glad im good at tuning stuff out.
Would you say that even just watching it one time was “ad nauseam”? 😂
Plus cringe-worthy, nauseating, blasphemous heresy
I had no idea 🤷 what the heck I was watching… at the end I said “I dont get it” what was this commercial trying to convey?
It's hilarious how much "Christians" hate the concept of virtue.
Weirdly, they only showed White people doing the washing.
And that, my child, was deliberate. Probably the main message. I also noticed that when a white person was washing the feet of a black person, the black person had a look of "yea, that's more like it. You get down where you belong now, whitey"
I think its weird thats what you focus on in the ad.
@@sabbathelohim8164 and I think it's weird that you don't
It was designed to entice a reaction, and everyone fell hook line and sinker
Spot on, Matt!
The man-made message of this campaign at Jesus' expense is utterly disgusting. It's clear they don't know the true biblical Jesus.
Washing the feet of one another is a sign of Christ like humility and love in the person doing the washing. It actually is a beautiful thing. Showing humility and love should be something we all do. It does not mean we condone what others do, only that we love them. Christ did not condone sin. We are to pray for all people, even our enemies. The choices of the people that were choosen in the ad actually show that they must believe white people have more humility than others, just as Jesus had. In truth there are people of all races who have Christ like humility, not just white people.
It's called 'washing of the Saints Feet' for a reason, it is supposed to bring you into closer fellowship with your brethren, a spiritual connection within the bride of Christ, to be on one accord as the day of Pentecost.
Well they are in line with a lot of churches in the US. Prosperity preaching, watered down sermons that ignore the reality of evil and hell.
Do you think the bible was written by God himself?
Jesus taught holiness. True holiness. The idiots who ran this ad would have called Jesus a bigot.
The Hobby Lobby would call Jesus a bigot? Also, Jesus taught forgiveness and acceptance. If you don't like it, stop calling yourself a Christian.
@GlennRobinson777 , you might want to fully examine what those concepts all mean, buddy. Oh, and read Matthew 5:17, while you're at it. He never did teach violation of - wait for it - the Law of God.

Cherry picking the parts of the Gospel you like is no less unchristian than hatred. You can choose to hate me for speaking Scriptural Reality, but keep in mind that your god is not the God of the Bible if you do. You either keep ALL of the Bible, or you don't, Glenn.
@@GlennRobinson777 , none of those verses support your position.
That was so disgusting on so many levels.
Throughout scripture, Jesus shows kindness and favor to tax collectors and prostitutes. He is merciful to the adulteress from John 8:1-11, reclines with Levi in Mark 2:13-17, and, in Luke 19:1-10, inspires Zaccheus to give half his goods to the poor.
You’re disgusted by the teachings of Christ, got it
The Hallow ad was a better example of the catholic faith. This was just an abysmal display of ass kissing to the athiests.
Very good insight. I felt that but couldn't articulate it.
He loves us, not hates us which is why He teaches repentance to save our souls from Hell.
My husband who is very much against religion and always has been, has become so disgusted with ads like these, sermons given by the alphabet mafia and the fact that they want to pervert religion for their own disgusting belief, that he has decided he wants to go to church.
This made my day
Praise God!
Surely an unintended consequence on their part. Hallelujah!🙏
That was not where I thought your comment was going 😮😊😊
Good for him!
Supplicating yourself towards sinners is not the same thing as "forgiveness" of said sins. How many Christian parents have forgiven the murderers of their children? Not because it absolved the murderers of their sins, but because a Christian wants to live without hate in their heart, which is also a sin.
He who has not sinned cast the first stone
For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God's glorious standard
We shouldn't be so damming while we ourselves are sinners.
Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are full of greed and self-indulgence.
Like the leftist propagandists in that campaign, you left a key part in the message of Jesus in the Gospel...SIN NO MORE! Tell me, would you call the sodomite at the last picture a sick sinner in need of healing? Jesus would. L5:30-32 Yes he chastised Pharisees for not welcoming sinners...but He also called the latter to repentance and healing and to stop sinning. You left that part in your quotes. Why??!!!
We are supposed to expose darkness
Jesus didn't teach hate but He did teach to turn from your sins, He taught where your sins will lead you. I didn't notice any bibles in the ad, that makes sense because woke Jesus ignores the bible and would never tell a woman to turn away from that abortion clinic because it might hurt her feelings.
This.
In the UK is hard find a church that does not preach Christian wokery. They leave Leviticus but mention shaving is a sin. However in Leviticus 14:8-9

It will be on the seventh day that he shall shave off all his hair: he shall shave his head and his beard and his eyebrows, even all his hair.

A lot of great points Matt. One thing I would say is that it wasn’t a missed opportunity because it wasn’t the true gospel (as you state) and because it was a false gospel, it was not a message from God. So, on the contrary, this ad was a great opportunity for an evil organization to further the lies and deception of their master, the devil. We need to be more discerning as Christians.
I feel like in a weird way it was singling out Christians and calling them hateful. Kind of like “Hey, we just wanted to remind you again to not be hateful”
At best the message was redundant.
At worst, it had the opposite effect and only reinforced false liberal stereotypes
Maybe it was showing who had Christ like attributes? Humility, love for others, etc? I saw the believers being Christlike, they were the GIVERS. I'm sure there are people of others races who have Christ like attributes also. I don't know why they only showed white people as being the loving and humble ones.

Thank you for correctly identifying the central message of Jesus: REPENTANCE! Many have lost sight of this, as this ad so clearly demonstrates. There is no forgiveness without repentance.
Repentance for what exactly?
Yup. And that's why the ad is useless. Y'all will never repent and we will never forgive you. Matt "if queer people/drag queens don't want to be murdered, maybe they shouldn't host storytimes for kids" Walsh will NEVER repent. He will burn.

@@TealPanda7 Jesus is disgusted by this commercial
What does that say about you!
I knew Christians would be upset by an ad supporting compassion and tolerance, and would find reasons to reject it. As is so often said, there's no hate like Christian love.
This ad invalidates itself by depicting an abortion clinic as a backdrop. "Thou shall not kill" is one of God's commandments. And Jesus said " If you love me, do what I command you."
The problem is the societal context that sets the tone-when they say “Jesus didn’t teach hate,” that can be directly translated to “Christians/Whte people are hateful and oppr essive and they need to stop.”
That's exactly their point, which slanders innocent Christians.

@@pete3011 Jesus was all about providing for those who "don't deserve it", and was not quick to pass judgement on those who society deemed as needing to be judged. The whole pinnacle of Christianity hangs on the idea that Jesus died to cover ALL sins. What makes humans worthy to judge others?
@@TheNateBeSoGreat Define "loving people". Because it does NOT mean accepting sin!
If the message is “Love Thy Neighbor” and Christians are angry about it, I think they are the ones who should look into repentance. The lost repent once they’re loved, not before.
Many repented in the Bible when they heard prophets predicting horrible judgments if they kept sinning
“For a specific group of people” You mean like the disciples were his elite club? No. He was teaching them and all of us how to behave as his followers. It was the night before he died on the cross. He was showing us how to represent him.
"Jesus didn't teach hate." Neither did he preach tolerance.
Jesus would be ashamed of you
Jesus hates sin.
@@i_like_chomp6382 How?
Funny enough he preached tolerance of people but hate of sin
@@TheTruthAlwaysWins169 "niether did he preach tolerance"- He litterally did, he may not have liked it but he never went out of his way to chastise people or tell them how to live their lives, that is by definiton tolerance, turning the other cheek. He would be dissappointed in you, utterly dissappointed
The "roles reversed" argument is so accurate. Virtually all TV commercials follow this narrative too. You can count on the criminal being a white guy and the dumb guy too. It's spreading to white women as well.
that's social engineering in progress
Also the ugly man and the funny man (= not to be taken seriously man).
Ooh boy that white grievance on full display in this comment section lol
Jesus did preach against hate: He said the 2nd most important commandment was to love your neighbor as yourself, and also said that whatever we did for the least of our brothers and sisters, we were also doing for him. He didn't walk around washing feet like the ad suggests, but ignoring that inaccuracy, the message was a reminder to love the sinner, hate the sin. The people in the ad getting their feet washed are generally people that conservatives look down on the actions of (illegal immigrants, aborters, etc). It was to remind us to recognize them as human beings even if we believe their actions are wrong. Judge and you shall be judged, and not one of us is perfect!
Would really be interested what they mean by “hate.” Would they say calling people to repent is hate?
”From that time Jesus began to preach, saying, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”“
Matthew 4:17 ESV
This is literally how Jesus started His ministry so…is that hate?
I commend you for mentioning repentance. It’s often overlooked.
This commercial is vomit inducing; also, they could have used the money spent on the cringe ad to feed and clothe people
why actually help society when you can just send them a 100 million dollar virtue signal? - the people responsible for that ad
Only clothe and feed those that are heterosexual, of course
"vomit inducing". Interesting. But y'all would prefer for minorities to be reminded of the ACTUAL oppression they experienced. That WOULDN'T be vomit inducing, eh?
So could all the preachers flying around in 20 million dollar jets but they don’t do shit for anybody but themselves. Lol
Matt basically pointed out the few things he hates about the commercial and says thats all that the commercial has to give. Did you not see the white man and the black man washing their feet in the same tub together, and what looks to be a BROWN cop washing the black mans feet, and the slides that show a white person washing another white persons feet other than the abortion one (makes sense why you would only focus on that one though)? You ignore the whole entirety of the message to fuel your own view of the world, and thats something jesus did not teach.
Imagine being triggered by a Christian ad telling you to love your neighbor as yourself 😆
Matt is so upset that Christians are promoting tolerance during the Superbowl 😂😂😂
CNN has an article stating how suspicious non-believers are of those commercials because they tie them back to conservative Evangelicalism, which seems strange considering the message of the commercial. So basically, no one finds them helpful. What a waste of money.
Yeah, they’re paid for by the Hobby Lobby people, apparently, so that’s why the left is suspicious. But now they’ve made the right furious, too, because they’re not in-line with the gospel of Republican Jesus. It’s weird
Melissa Dougherty did a video on this and it is spot on. They wanted to present a different Jesus. More like them and not the real Jesus, the One that makes them uncomfortable.
I understand that there is a biblical precedent for foot washing. But... The sentiment is wrecked for me due to the prevailing foot fetish trend on the internet. I'm really not into that sort of thing.
footwashing feeds into pride and ego??? OMG...has this dude gotten his feet washed? This ad was created because too many Christian choose judging over loving
Jesus didn’t teach hate in general. Sin being the thing to hate. Jesus taught truth. Something these evil people hate. They also hate babies. Maybe they should listen to their own words on this and stop their own hate for things that are actually good. Their hypocrisy is disgusting.
I really can't believe that any American men still pay any attention to the "woke" NFL (let alone give them their money). Give them bread and circuses.
I really don't think people can be reminded enough that God/Jesus didn't preach hate. People seem to need to be reminded constantly, actually.
In this commercial I see people stopping what they're doing to tend to another human no matter what's going on at the moment. No matter their opinions or religious beliefs or politics. Switch the characters in the pictures in your mind once you've watched how the commercial is presented. Still applies. Still a great message to present. It made a lot of people stop and look and think for a minute.
That couldn't be commented any better! Way to break it down to all the people who do not see it for what it is. God bless you.
I was feeling uncomfortable about that ad. I wanted to like it, but I think you hit the nail on the head with that critique; it correctly identified how I was feeling but couldn’t put into words exactly.
Washing the feet of one another is a sign of Christ like humility and love in the person doing the washing. It actually is a beautiful thing. Showing humility and love should be something we all do. It does not mean we condone what others do, only that we love them. Christ did not condone sin. We are to pray for all people, even our enemies. The choices of the people that were choosen in the ad actually show that they must believe white people have more humility than others, just as Jesus had. In truth there are people of all races who have Christ like humility, not just white people.
@@briteeyes2133You're wasting your comment on these people. They take pride in their bigotry.
yeah, same here -- thanks MW!
It's about having Christians bowing down to people who despise them. Who's creating these ads? The people we're not allowed to criticize of course
First we are shown his unconditional love, then we repent. We don’t repent before we see his love.
*I refuse to watch anything that begins with a BLACK NATIONAL ANTHEM*
It's disgusting!
The more I watch He Gets Us ads, the more slimy I feel. I’m a Traditionalist Catholic and I’ve seen my fair share of discrimination, hatred and distrust due to my faith. And to be honest? I’d much rather take the bigoted woke crowd spewing hatred of me than the hypocrites spreading a message that they clearly don’t understand. At least I know the former are being honest.
They have made an idol out of God. Cherry picking on some selected passages and ignore the rest of the Bible.
@@LizThomas-dp7srNot an idol- more of a "stalking horse'.
When I saw the commercial, I was more under the impression that the person whose foot was being washed was being forgiven, not the other way around, although it seems like others didn’t really get that impression so maybe I’m wrong
I didn't see this ad when it aired. I was looking away and someone said something about feet washing (they were touched), and I turned to the TV only to see the last line. It's probably good I didn't, and God knew that.
He only washed the feet of his disciples.
And they were sinners
@@LtCaveman Who repented and didn't defend their shallow hedonism as self-empowerment. Get it yet?
@LtCaveman we're all sinners. They were His twelve chosen followers, His ministers, His disciples.
🤓🤓🤓
@@Laneous14 agreed but how do we know that the people who are getting their feet washed didn’t repent and start following Jesus?
He does get us. That’s why God sent His Son to die for us. We couldn’t do it on our own.
If you’re reading this and don’t know the good news, Jesus knew every horrible thing you would ever do and loved you while you were at your worst. He died and rose again to save you from the death that sin brings. He became a curse so that you could be called a child of God! Turn from sin. Look upon your savior. Receive His love. Go and sin no more. Walk in the freedom He died for.
1:15
Well... There are many big churches that have that kind of money but the pastors buy private jets instead.
Jesus was saying no matter who you are and what you do you still are worthy to be redeemed. Go and sin no more !
A subtle observasion. Notice there wasn't a single woman cleansing a mans feet
Nor a member of the “religion of peace” washing anyone’s feet.
Yes there was: the first one was an elderly white woman cleaning a mans feet in a family setting.
Apart from that, you are right.
It may mean that they don't think highly of elderly women as well. White ones that is.
What would that show?
@@gmiller6703Christ and his bride
I've seen those "He gets us" ads on the billboards. I've always been bothered by them.
I'm not sure why I could not understand the message behind this commercial. I mean I know what's it about but it just creep me out.
I understand. It was a little creepy
The whole premise of “he gets us” seems to come from a false preconception that somehow we created Him…
The He Gets Us suggests Jesus approves of their sins. It would have been different if it has says Jesus loves us.
Jesus' ministry is plain simple: Repent and be saved. It is not "keep your sinful ways and be saved". He told the adulterous woman, "Go and sin no more". I think that makes things pretty clear.
Love the sinner, hate the sin comes to mind
@@Mobius118 That's Ghandi and not Jesus.
you are speaking facts
The “bible” is so filled with ridiculous contradictions that taken as whole, almost nothing is clear at all. Go and condescend no more in your precious smugness.
@@brianstorm5488 whats a ridiculous contradiction in the Bible?
What an enormous waste of money
They forget the part where Jesus forgave the adulterer and then said "go and sin no more." He didn't say "I love you anyway, keep doing what you do."
This would be like a SB commercial saying "Jesus never let the party go dry. Stay thirsty, my friends." 😂
That's why He changed water into wine.
Well, that's one way to ruin a great INXS song...
Oh, and not save any souls.
