1. God hasn't changed, society has turned their backs on God. No one believes in him anymore.

2. Abraham loved God so much that he was WILLING to give his son as a sacrifice, instead though, by showing such faith, God gave Abraham a goat to sacrifice.

as for your other quotes.. well I'm not sure about all that I'll have to look into it..

the people on earth that are doing the will of god are the ones making the decisions to change which is a problem ....


as for abraham ---Take your son, your only son – yes, Isaac, whom you love so much – and go to the land of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains, which I will point out to you." (Genesis 22:1-18) Abraham takes his own son up on a mountain and builds an altar upon which to burn him. He even lies to his son and has him help build the altar. Then Abraham ties his son to the altar and puts a knife to his throat. He then hears God tell him this was just a test of his faith.



as for god and capital punishment ....

The one who has stolen what was set apart for destruction will himself be burned with fire, along with everything he has, for he has broken the covenant of the LORD and has done a horrible thing in Israel." (Joshua 7:15 NLT)
