God-fearing Christians hold all the levers of power."

When all the levers of power are controlled by one group of people who 
think and worship in only one way, you don't need a democracy, or 
separate branches of power anymore.  You don't need judges or 
legislators.  You just need somebody to be the King to the followers, 
to preach so they can say "preach on!"
