"In 1954, Congress approved an amendment by Sen. Lyndon Johnson to prohibit 501(c)(3) organizations, which includes charities and churches, from engaging in any political campaign activity."

It wasn't their choice. Their funding is at risk when they get political. It's just in modern times the churches have been ignoring that rule and there are calls to get rid of their tax exempt status.

didn't want to get involved in politics because that was worldly matters which distracted from the spiritual work.

That doesn't sound like any church I ever heard of. The spiritual bullshit is how they maintain their power and wealth.
