And for this very cause have I raised thee up, to shew thee my power; and that my name may be declared in all the earth.

Agreed. But is it wrong for a member of the church to participate? It's certainly something I can disagree about agreeably. I think we have to choose our battles carefully, but I just can't see anything in scripture that would forbid a Christian's participation in a freedom struggle.
But one thing I am fully convinced of, we are passed the point of ever recovering our Constitution and republic without some sort of showdown, whether Christians are involved or not.
