For a couple of years now, He Gets Us has been airing ads about how Jesus relates to everyday human life. The one that aired during Sunday's Super Bowl game featured people from apparently opposing identity groups – like a police officer and a black man, a suburban woman and an illegal immigrant, a pro-lifer and a woman outside an abortion clinic, etc. – washing the other person’s feet.
There is no mention of repentance and faith, or what Jesus did on the cross for the sins of the world.
I'd like to remind us that there is more to Jesus than simply "getting us." A lot more. The gospel invitation includes repentance for one's sins and salvation requires faith in Christ. and AFA wants to correct the false narrative from the deceptive "He Gets Us" campaign.
Read Correction: He doesn’t just 'get us'
Last Monday morning, AFA's Bert Harper, host of "Exploring the Word" on American Family Radio, shared two clear truths that the "He Gets Us" campaign completely ignores:
Jesus did not die to keep us in our sin; He died to deliver us from our sin!
Jesus loves us the way we are, but He loves too much to leave us for us to stay the way we are!
If you want to know the true unvarnished truth about how Jesus really "gets us," please watch this AFA-produced video featuring Bert Harper, called "The Road to Salvation."
Just as important, I hope you will share it with others who don't know Jesus as their personal Savior. As Jesus says in John 3:16, "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life."
