I have seen on other forums an argument concerning Abraham and the sacrifice of his son.
It goes something like this
God lied to Abraham because he knew that he would go through with it so there was no reason to test him on it.
But I have not heard this that I'm thinking.
Maybe the test was for Abraham to prove to himself or cement an idea or something?
So would I be wrong to pose this in a discussion
OR
Is this spelled out in the OT and I have completley missed it ops:
