Nothing about that has anything to do with religion or the "god that they believe in". Those rules are about power and money. "God" or "religion" are just a lever they use.
It's just a really big coincidence that god happens to want all the exact same things they want and when their book explicitly says otherwise (taxing the rich, being generally kind to people) it's actually a deeply convoluted metaphor for actually doing exactly what they wanted in the first place. Isn't god "great"?
This reasoning kind of falls apart when we consider that one or the most important rules of most religions is to convert others, or at the very least shun them one way or another. Being insufferable about their believes is a crucial part of their believes.
