Take you theology to its logical conclusion. All power comes from God. Ergo might makes right.
Well ultimately, that is precisely the case. Were God not able to back up His decrees, then the heathen has nothing at all about which to worry. If not God Almighty, then Might rests with "Mother Nature" (which, absent God, is just a god of Top Might). If not Mother Nature, then it is some other effective "god." Without some god beyond man, some objective superior force in nature, then Hitler would certainly have been morally right had he been able to pull off his designs. He would have been Top Might and able to define what is morally permissible and what is not.

This says it all about your twisted sense of Christianity.
