Would you kill your own children if God commanded you to?
A perfectly valid legit question.

Please no attempts to derail the thread with nonsense like "God would never say that" or "God would never change the rules with murder" etc....

I would rather try to kill God than to harm my children, I must protect my children.

Glad I am not the only one who thinks this way.

LOL. I'd kill God first before I would harm any human being.
...

Nowhere in New Testament does God ask his children of anything even remotely similar to harming their offspring.

I never said it did.
NIce strawman argument.

Its not strawman, its correcting your false statements. God that commands you to kill your children, is not christian God. You call your entity Zeus, Diablo or Mass Effects Rreaper for all I care.

Abraham and Isaac? Anyone?
Doesn't ring a bell?

Where did you miss, I said New Testament? You are referring to the Old one (bound to jewish folk), controversial passage that is interpreted as *proof of faith*. Similar example would be, if you asked to your pregnant fiancee for DNA proof of your paternity. Do you have faith in her love and chastity or not?

So I would like to point out, that God did not actually ask his men to kill their children, but to prove their faith in His judgement. Perhaps He had his own reason for doubting their sincerity.

But I see your point, it is sometimes observed even by believers, that manifestation of Old Testament God is far more cruel, than the New Testaments one, perhaps reflecting different experiences of witnesses as both Testaments are separated by many hundreds od years.
