How the religion of choice defines God is where the key is.
If God is a humanoid, then your sentence makes sense.

But if God is "something else" that taught us the noble traits we hold like mercy and logic, then the sentence doesn't make any sense.
Many religions sought to picture God as a humanoid with super powers.

No, all that is necessary is for the standards of good and evil to exist independent of God.

Since the alternative to that is the arbitrariness of Divine Command Theory, I don't think God wins either way.
