The only distinction to be made between the two is that of power, and you categorically advocate that idea that a superior power's character in terms of its justice and fairness is justified by the idea that its superiority alone makes it above reproach by lesser beings. You don't want to call it might makes right, both because that moral basis is the antithesis of actual justice, and because that's precisely how, 100% of the time, you justify every assertion you ever presented about the character of your god (with "you can't prove a negative" being how you justify every assertion you present regarding your god's existence).
