Matthew 10:34
"Do not think that I came to bring peace on Earth.I did not come to bring peace but a sword."

At first, I thought that Jesus would be a communist, but from what I've read from him, he doesn't seem to advocate force. So in which case, I would have to say that he does support freedom and liberty.

I would do some research, but since you obviously haven't... I don't think I should even bother.
