Well I'm not sure how the reverend feels that he can help the poor if they're so afraid of unintentionally regulating a society which may help further the fruit of the Spirit. They spoke in their blog about how they're terrified of Christianity ever having any connection to society in any governmental apparatuses but they're asking for the government to help here. That seems like a contradiction in values and risks watering down Christianity to pragmatic appeals. Besides the paradox, I think we shouldn't water down our faith and instead seek to integrate our faith in helping the destitute and we do this by appealing to the great commission. Anything else may be confusing.
