Abraham was a 'friend' of God and kept all His commandments. The most dramatic test for Abraham was being asked to sacrifice his only son, Isaac. Abraham was about to do so when God intervened via an angel. Read it for yourself in Genesis 22. Because of Abrahams deep faith, God made His covenant with Abraham irrevocable and permanent.
Yes, in the sense that Abraham had prophecy (Genesis ch.12, 13-15, 17, 22) and conversed with God during prophecy (Genesis ch.18). See also the Related Link.
No, no one has 'met' God in the physical sense. God doesn't have physical form to interact directly with people.
Superlatively. Even God commended him for that (Genesis 15:6).
he didn't that's just an old story in an over exaggerated book
Yes, Genesis 17:3 Abram is renamed by God and becomes known as Abraham.
Moses and Abraham met for the first time in heaven. Before that they never knew each other. Too many years between them.

God didn't promise Abraham anything. God just told him to sacrifice his son Isaac and Abraham, being obedient to God, was going to do what God told him to do. That is until God stopped him. God was seeing if Abraham would still be willing to obey God even if it meant killing his only son.
Abraham promised to god that he would only worship one god. P.S. you misspelled Abraham : )
he wasn't... he wasnt the king of anything... he was a a Patriarch.Answer:Tradition teaches that God chose Abraham after Abraham chose God. Abraham was the first person to reject idolatry and its concomitant immorality. He taught people that God is One.
It says, God spoke to Abraham and commanded him to take his son to Mount Moriah and offer him as a sacrifice to God. This was God's test of Abraham's faith. Abraham loved his son very much, but did not hesitate to follow God's words for he was a man whose faith in God was strong. As Abraham and his son reached the place where the sacrifice was to be performed, Isaac said to his father, "Father, where is the lamb that is to be sacrificed?" Abraham replied, "My son, God will provide the lamb". Because, Abraham was honest to his God, his son was also honest to his father Abraham.
He didn't - He spoke for God and to God, but not against Him. He believed in God and God counted it unto him for righteousness. The book of Genesis tells Abraham's story and the Book of Romans speaks lots of Abraham's faith in God's promise and covenant.
He took his son to the mountain because God told him to. It was a test to see if Abraham would obey God. Once there, God told Abraham to kill Isaac. As Abraham was about to kill Isaac, God said "Stop, you have proven yourself to me"!
They believe that God promised to protect Abraham and his people.
You are mistaken as God asked Moses a, and not Abraham from the burning bush.
