Can Creator create morality from nothing?

1. "If God were to exist" - Not established. Even when established it is not meaningful at all unless god is fairly specifically defined.

2. "He cannot create morality" - Even if 1 is given, 2 does not convincingly follow

3. "given that objective morality exist" - meaningless without defining what is objective morality. One might as well replace "objective morality" with any arbitrary symbol or letter.

4. "It is ethenal" - does not follow from 1, 2, and 3 for any number of possible meanings of "god" and "objective morality".
