I expect the answer to both is no. The reality is that Christians interpret what Jesus said. At one time a lot of Christians thought slavery was moral, now none do, so clearly Christian morality is not consistent. Abortion and homosexuality are two other examples where Christians disagree. Some of them MUST be wrong, and therefore Christian morality is not perfect.
The difference between Christians and atheists, as far as I can see, is that each Christian thinks his or her moral opinion is perfect.
How does the atheist know what is right? Logically he could make anything up and call it right. And Christian motivation is not the fear of God, but the love for God.
