Worldlings such as the author of that article think the church ought to support socialism in order to prove its love for the poor. Churches that hold fast to the Scriptures and do the good works on ministry don’t get credit unless they hook up with a socialist government agency - because any outfit that proclaims Christ as it lends a hand cannot be trusted by these worldlings. They can’t understand the redeemed in Christ and we should not be their friends.
AND we are to do our good works so as not to be acclaimed by men — therefore you WON’T see it on the news what good works the church is doing in its day to day ministry.
