Objective morality as a proper basic belief

Forgive me as I don't have a complete understanding of the Abrahamic religions, let alone Christianity, but I don't understand how you can get to objective morality even with God. Dude regularly calls for acts of genocide or commits what we would consider heinous acts all the time. Then it turns around and commands us not to kill? How is that not subjective? He could command anything and it would be considered morally right. Before you start claiming OT OT, why does that make a difference? Guy's a flip flopper.

Oh it's super duper uber special nature which is arbitrarily referred to by men and seemingly picked by men . That somehow make his commands right .Refer back to my earlier comments on why this is BS . Divine command theory is bull as is divine ontology .
