One occasion was at the Covenant Between the Parts (Genesis ch.15) which according to tradition took place before any of the other occasions.
It is called the "Covenant"-- the promise Abraham made with God, and God made with Abraham.
God chose Abraham because of God saw Abraham was worthy of a blessing and he had a clean heart.
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 : )
Abraham was chosen by God because of his faith and obedience. God saw that Abraham would trust Him and follow His commands, making him a suitable vessel to carry out God's plan for the world.
it depends on what your vision of god is! :)

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.
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"!
