Would you sacrifice your child like Abraham intended to?

This is such a severely misunderstood story. Abraham was very elderly at the time, and Isaac was a grown adult, not a child. There is no physical way Abraham could force Isaac to do anything he didn't want to do, and killing Isaac without his cooperation wouldn't been extremely difficult. This is beside the point, though, as Abraham knew that God wouldn't let him kill Isaac, at least not in any permanent sense, because God had already made a covenant with Abraham that he would see innumerable generations spawning through Isaac, a promise yet unfulfilled, and God doesn't break promises. Abraham trusted that God would bring Isaac back to fulfill the covenant, even if he did somehow kill Isaac. God alone can undo death and has complete power over it.

Unless God has made a similar covenant with you, I don't see how any of us can be in a remotely comparable situation.
