Fortunately...the God that you believe in exists only as a figment of the imagination of the brainwashed.

Thank you for validating Isa 55:8-9 (as you have so often have done in the past with other topics). I once stated that one of the major reasons I believe scripture is because its spiritual teaching is so entirely counter-intuitive to the world's wisdom -- so contrary to the way the fallen human race
thinks its darkness, that all scripture truly reflects God's
infinite otherness. God truly does not think, speak or act the way his fallen creatures do.
Don't you know that believers are to "consider it all joy" when they encounter various trials, for we know that the testing produces endurance and that in turn results in Christians being perfected and made complete (Jas 1:2-3)?
Can you tell us what was the
context of God's test to Abraham? Why did he test Abraham?
