(Doctrine and Covenants) D&C 132:36 Abraham didn't "refuse" the commandment to kill, as he was commanded to do so, even if it was a commandment not to kill. But he would obey because God told him almost directly (if not directly) to do so.
D&C 132:37-39 God gave the ancient prophets commandments to have more than one wife when God, and only God, commanded it to happen, and when they obeyed, it wasn't a sin. But when they didn't obey, or thought to have more women than the Lord commanded, it was a sin, because the Lord didn't command it.
-David's example: He had wives and concubines, but he sinned against God by desiring Bathsheba, whom the Lord did not approve of because she was married to another.+He wanted her out of lust, not out of God's will.He has fallen from exaltation and won't inherit more because God gave that which would have been his to another.
