Aklim,
You miss the point about Abraham's almost sacrifice of his son, Issac.
Issac was the son God had pronised to Ab--that thru his descendents the world would be blessed.
Ab considered that God was a promise-keeper. God had promised him a son, and had delivered on that promise. The scriptures are clear that Abraham believed that God was able to bring his son back to life ( if he were to be sacrificed), to fulfill the promise.
Abraham was never required to perform the sacrifice, nor is there any other instance of child sacrifice.

As for your recommendation to use the KJV, I can't help but wonder, "why?"
In its day, the KJV was a good English translation, ( and still the prettiest English rendering of the Psalms), but English has changed over the last 500 years. The only reason to Greek texts, and more correct translations available, why not use them?
I am partial to the New International, but there are several other good English translations.
