Yes, so it's pretty hilarious when they try to justify genocide and slavery in the bible because since God did it, it was moral.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

His morals? From war-mongering Israelites who needed to justify their massacre of innocent people and the raping of virgin women with the idea that "God is on our side, so we can do it!"

I wonder if any modern religions think the same way?

Best laugh in years
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

Judging from the Big Book of Heavenly Horseshit I'd say his model was Attila the Hun.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

After 6 million of them were murdered in concentration camps.

What a fucking great deal that was.
