    Jesus also said to lend out a hand when you can.

    "6 Now we command you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you keep away from any brother who is walking in idleness and not in accord with the tradition that you received from us. 7 For you yourselves know how you ought to imitate us, because we were not idle when we were with you, 8 nor did we eat anyone's bread without paying for it, but with toil and labor we worked night and day, that we might not be a burden to any of you. 9 It was not because we do not have that right, but to give you in ourselves an example to imitate. 10 For even when we were with you, we would give you this command: If anyone is not willing to work, let him not eat. 11 For we hear that some among you walk in idleness, not busy at work, but busybodies. 12 Now such persons we command and encourage in the Lord Jesus Christ to do their work quietly and to earn their own living." - 2 Thessalonians 3

    "By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return.” - Genesis 3:19

    ???

    As I said, I hope that ad was NOT a representation of Christianity.

    Not quite what you claimed, is it?

    Also, Genesis is old testament. Jesus was not part of that book.

    We're all sinners. None of us perfect.

    Of course. What is so odd is the claim of Christian faith and those claimed Christians behaving in such an un-Christian manner.

    Why is it every time I see an AOC off-the-cuff comment I think of the old saying 'Sometimes it's better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt"?

    The Bible is the word of God. Jesus is God. The whole book is God's word, not just the red letters.

    In Matthew 25:31-end Mathew quotes Jesus as saying those who fail to search out the poor, those in hospitals, those in prison and serve them will end in HELL - even if they are his followers.

    There is a difference between what we want people to do and the fact that they are human beings just like we are.

    Jesus had a full life record of serving sinners.

    Like I said, none of us are perfect. It's impossible to be perfect, as Jesus was perfect.

    The bible is the word of god? I thought the bible was a document written in Greek, finalized a couple hundred years after this Jesus fellow died.

    Tell me how that worked. This god said something, and a couple thousand years later someone wrote it down?

    You're absolutely right, but one doesn't make it into heaven by works, or faith alone.

    He was? Did you know him, in the unlikely event that this Yeshua fellow even lived?

    It's called "faith". That's why I said you should learn more about what you speak. So far, you're showing ignorance and obedience to your political ideology.

    And yet, nowhere in her tweet or quotes (as provided by the OP URL) does she say those silly ads were "worse than fascism"

    Making this thread as silly as the ads...

    Jesus would certainly think so....

    So I am just to have faith that a man who was his own father was killed by Romans all so the transgressions of others can be forgiven and folks, after death, can be admitted to this fictional heaven?

    I mean, all of this is about as believable as the Harry Potter books, though far more vicious and far less entertaining.

    Matthew's quote of Jesus doesn't counter that.

    Jesus said people need to be his followers.

    But, Jesus also said that if you don't walk that walk, you're headed for Satan.

    Surely this is at the root of what the Pope has said.

    And, I do NOT see a way to match what Jesus said (and did) to what the SuperBowl ad proclaimed.

    That is especially true if you look at the political direction of the major funding.

    Faith in a higher power isn't for everyone.

    There is no evidence of that at all.

    You didn't read the OP. Did you?

    “Something tells me Jesus would *not* spend millions of dollars on Super Bowl ads to make fascism look benign.”
