Christ's compassion was not just for those who believed. In the Bible those that said they "believed" were sometimes those who rejected him the most.

Don't act like Jesus and his disciples were some sort of all star preaching conglomerate. They were country boys, fishermen from small towns ( most of them) the majority were Galileans like himself who were dismissed, shunned and disliked by their Jewish brothers as a whole. Jesus being from Nazareth was looked down on. There was country and then there was Nazareth

Jesus recognized that for his word to resonate, he could not be overly picky, he had to stress that the message was for all.....something that Paul had to remind the apostles like James and Peter. The idolator was just as worthy of delivering the word to as was a Jew.

I honestly do not know what you are even referencing here.

We are talking about the biblical purpose of washing feet here, and there is only one truth, and that’s what scripture tells us, and it tells us plainly that it is a sign of spiritual cleaning in both the manner in which Christ washed the feet of the disciples, and in the manner in which Mary washed Christ’s feet in appreciation of forgiveness of her many sins.

An unrepentant sinner who rejects Christ is not a candidate for this because he’s already rejected Christ and what Christ offers, the remission of sins through HIM. It’s not some kind deed Christ did for His disciples. It has spiritual meaning, the likes of which is not defined in that advertisement.
