If I understand you correctly, you are saying that because God created the moral laws, whatever he decrees is true by definition. Is that it? But if so, do you believe that if God had said that torturing babies for fun is good, it would be good?
And this is where most Christians will say "God would never think that was morally right," which is really just the Christian saying they, themselves, could never find torturing babies morally right. But they must project their beliefs onto God in order to maintain some sense of internal consistency they can be comfortable with.
