Where does the grace for such compassion come from, except from God?

I don’t want to spoil this thread with a long argument, so I’ll leave it there.

As I have said, Thomas, humans are capable of great things because we have been made in His image. Compassion is one of God’s great attributes and we are wise to emulate it.

However, the heart capable of great compassion is also capable of sin. This is a condition of our fallen state and nothing except the blood of Jesus can cover it and wash it away.

So everyone needs a Savior, even these lovely people in these commercial ads. This is the point that can never be yielded by a believer in Jesus.

Enjoy these ads for what they are, but never forget who Jesus is and what He does for all of us.

God bless you always, Thomas.
