maybe shocking for you to hear, but post is not unfamiliar with the Bible.
have you read,
"blessed be Assyria My handiwork"
.....?
The difference is we not only get to establish religious organizations, we also get to exercise our religious practices. Private businesses can establish their own regulations and practices as a condition of employment. They can actually limit the exercise of religion on their properties and in their businesses. This is not so in government. In America, it is often easier for Christians to impact the nation through government than outside it.

interestingly when the Jews stoned Paul, they were breaking the law. Rome allowed them to continue their temple worship ((and anyone else to worship however they liked)) but forbid them to execute anyone. that's why the sannhedrin presented Christ to Pilate, instead of trying to stone Him themselves.
this is what God chose
seems straightforward that the more worldly power anyone has, the power they have over the world.
but our strength is the joy of the LORD - do i need to be a mayor to have joy?
"against such things there is no law"

pointing out the vulnerability in the armor, not the wound.
Keep the electoral college but get rid of the electors. If a presidential candidate wins the state he or she gets the electoral votes period. There is no point for an unelected elector for even voting.
Also, have uniform election rules for each state. Have uniform rules for when the count of each state must end.
All votes must actually be received no later than the actual general election day. Any votes received after the election day are disqualified. Non partisans teams for each precinct to monitor the process.
Have voter registration based on social security number and government issue ID. The voter to actually be present to register.
If this isn't viable due to health issues a proxy can be used in their place.
All such proxies must register before hand. A proxy can only register and vote on behalf of their client one time only. They are limited to only representing one client only. Each proxy to vote for their client on the actual election day.
Ensure all potential voter registrations are US citizens only.

Proponents of the electoral college say it balances things and keeps larger states from dominating; however, there is no balance with the electoral college either. Every year it's a battle for a few swing states which have the most electors. The latest data show that Trump lost the popular vote despite earlier reports that said he won. As it is, my vote counted for nothing since I live in a solidly red state. I wouldn't have voted for Harris, but if someone else would've run I might have voted for them and my vote may have actually mattered.
