As I have told you before, this is the second horn of the Euthyphro dilemma. It makes it meaningless to say that God is "good".
Then I would think that the definition of "good" you are using is either wrong or inadequate. Is God not good if he has the best interests of others in mind? Is God not good if he is just?

Secondly, a "morally perfect" God is free to lie to Christians in the Bible. He can deceive them, make them believe they will go to heaven, when actually they will all go to hell. On your theory, this behaviour would all be perfectly "good".
Not at all. You are confusing immoral behaviour with justice. God is always straight forward in his justice, he never deceives anyone.

Perhaps we have a “natural†knowledge of what is right and wrong, where this knowledge comes from God? If so, we take this knowledge with us when we judge the claims of supposed scripture.
We have an idea of what is right or wrong, but that doesn't mean that our ideas are necessarily right or complete.
 
Free,

Do you consider putting an innocent infant to the sword an act of justice?
 
There were 300+ idols in Mohammed's day: the 1 he chose to exalt as the 1 true 1 - Allah - was merely the stone idol moon god

That's why the crescent moon is the symbol of Islam: but even many Muslims don't realise that
