Not trying to bash anyone, here, but I honestly don't see a good refutation to this.

5 doesn't follow from 4 because you're comparing certainties with possibilities. You'd need to quantify the value difference between their child going to hell and themself going to hell, and how that should vary based on probabilities, both of the child going to hell if they do nothing and themself going to hell regardless of their action. It's a flawed argument, even without bringing up the fact that premise 1 is not a universal truth among Christians.
