I meant in an analogous sense. If God is all powerful, then he can will anything. If good is what is in accordance to his will, and if he could will anything, then what is good could be anything.
Yes! That is why you can have a God that demands the deaths of every man woman and child in a given region and then have the same God demand that you turn the other cheek when you have been struck.

It is completely a matter of perspective, if you want what God want for you. (Eternal life as a member of creation, and an heir to apart of what He has created for us) then yes. If not, and you wish to live in a righteousness apart from God, then no. Which is your right given to you by God, just do not look for Him to support your decession with your own corner stake of creation and eternity.
