Open to all-would you sacrifice your child if god told you to?

[Esquilax]

Your comments make a lot of sense coming from your worldview which sees our life in the world as the entirety of your existence. But from the christian perspective, this life is but a tiny part of our existence. We aim to do what God wills for us here and then move on to eternity. So we look at things from the perspective of eternity, rather than the short time that we spend here in this world.

It's terribly telling that the one part of this scenario you appear to have even considered is the death part. It doesn't matter if your child goes to heaven when you kill them, killing them would still be wrong, because it would cause them pain, and heartbreak at having been so abjectly betrayed by their own parent, not to mention the architect of all creation. I don't imagine dying is particularly pleasant, after all.

More importantly, you're robbing your child of the ability to grow psychologically in an environment that every other human being in existence has grown up in; when you remove the finiteness of life from your child's psychological makeup as they mature, you also rob them of any respect for life. After all, to them life has mostly been something that goes on forever, and that's just assuming that your kid would continue to grow up in heaven, because the alternative, being locked in stasis at the age you die at, is pretty horrific on its own.

Not to mention your child is now growing up in a world without a moral continuum, because one can't sin in heaven and so there's no possible way for him to truly learn right from wrong. Nor would it be possible for him to ever develop a moral sense, if he can never choose good over evil...

You're messing your kid up in a lot more ways than you think, and yet your death-cult thinking has left you locked onto only the most superficial aspect of this. It's truly sociopathic.
