ISAAC OR ISHMAEL who was REALLY SACRIFICED?



"ISAAC OR ISHMAEL
WHO was really to be "SACRFICED?"




It is the twenty first century and the Jews and Muslims are in a bitter war of attrition. 

The rest of the world watches as these two genetic brothers go to great lengths to gain the upper hand so that they can destroy each other and wipe their own brethren from the planet.


This is the ultimate dysfunctional family folks!

Now we have all heard many different stories as to why this is so. However, what is the correct story? 

Why do the Muslims and Jews fight? 

After doing research, I have come to the conclusion that the Muslims and Jews are fighting because of one s single event in the bible that changed their family structure for generations to come. 

The adversary/Satan knows the scriptures much better than we will ever know. With his knowledge of scriptures about the past, Satan will do anything to change the scriptures of God! Satan is not one singular being. Satan is anyone who changes the word of God or goes against it. 


BIBLICAL TAMPERING? 
 
The New Testament is not the only book where the scribes are guilty of biblical tampering. The original Jews also tampered with the Old Testament bible and God punished them for it severely. Yes, I know this seems hard to believe but it’s true. God tells us many times in the Bible where He destroyed the people of Israel and Judah because the "LEADERS and PROPHETS" led them astray. 



In this chapter we will learn some important new things. 




1.    It may have been Ishmael and not Isaac that Abraham originally offered as a sacrifice on the altar.

2.    Jealousy may have been the caused of the separation of Abraham’s original family structure.

3.    Just like Jacob stole the birthright from Esau, the descendants of Isaac may have stole the birthright and inheritance from Ishmael.

4.    The sons of Isaac may have switched the biblical names because of greed or other reasons unknown.


Now how much of this can I really prove? 

The bible gives many contextual scriptures which support what I am saying is truth. All I am trying to do with this publication is show you the evidence at hand and show you why I believe these stories have also been edited. 

So let’s go to the bible and see if we can decipher clues from the written story in the book of Genesis…


ABRAM’S FAMILY TREE:


As we look at Genesis 15:3, Abram is childless and is asking God to allow the child of one of his servants Eliezer to become his own child. 

God denies that request and promises Abram that he will indeed have a child from his own body and bloodline. 

In verses 5-17 God gave Abram a glimpse into the future. God told Abram that he will have more children than the stars and that these children will come to suffer. 

Now first thing we can see is that God is having an actual conversation with Abram and:


 God is not the one that is choosing sides here. The only thing is clear is that God says he would bless this older man with a son of his own and many other children!

Remember that fact!

Now let’s start at verse 18:

  • In the same day the LORD made a COVENANT with Abram, saying, unto thy “SEED” have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the great Euphrates. GENESIS 16:18

God promised to give Abram’s children a massive amount of land that stretches from Egypt all the way to the Euphrates River. 

In verses 19 thru 21, God gives even more detailed information of the land the children shall have. 


Please notice that there are no children born before this prophecy. 


In Chapter 16:1, Abram’s wife Sarai gives her handmaid Hagar to Abram to be his second wife. Abram agrees to this request because he recalls the prophecy that God has told Him ten years earlier. 

Now we know God would not have permitted Abram to have adulterous sex with Hagar folks! So clearly then this is HIS WIFE! not CONCUBINE or SIDE PIECE!

Since we have that clear understanding, then here is the question for you:


If God did not ordain this marriage to Hagar, wouldn't God have:



  • 1. Told Abraham this is forbidden?
  • 2. Not allowed Hagar to have gotten pregnant at all and instead impregnated Sarai first if Isaac was to be the only heir to the promise?

As you can see, the New Testament isn't the only book that has been tampered with by men!



So Abram and Hagar are the ones who initially bring forth the fulfillment of God’s prophecy of Abram having a child from his own loins. 
I already know Christians and the PRETENDER JEWS or the Jew -(ISH) people in control of everything today are outraged at this allegation.. But you cannot fight the common sense question that I just asked because we see that God was always communicating directly with Abram. We know Abram would not have disobeyed God period!


ARROGANCE AND PRIDE LEADS TO JEALOUSY & BITTERNESS! 

                                           UH OH! TROUBLE TROUBLE! CAN YOU SAY: CAT FIGHT?!!





Now verses 4 through 6 show us the discord between Abram’s first wife, Sarai, and his second wife Hagar. 

Even though Hagar is Abram’s wife too she is to be submissive to the first wife. She is arrogant and flaunts the pregnancy in Sarai’s face. 

Abram permits Sarai to severely beat Hagar until she is forced to run away. God dispatches the Angel to Hagar’s aid:


  • And the angel of the Lord said unto her; return to thy mistress and submit thyself under her hands. GENESIS 16:9

Now folks, we've all read how this saga ends right? We know that Hagar eventually leaves. But ask yourself:


WHY WOULD GOD SEND HAGAR BACK to this home if ISAAC was to be the only child of the promise?
Does that make any sense to you now?
So now we see that God will not allow Hagar to leave because she is carrying Abram’s promised child in her that God gave her! 

She is commanded by the Angel of God to humble herself and to stop her arrogant flaunting of her pregnancy and return back to Sarai in submission.

Now I'm sure Hagar was frightened and clearly felt unwanted there by Sarai, So the Angel reassures her why she has to return home to Abraham. She and her child are to fulfill the prophecy of God:

  • And the angel of the Lord said unto HERI will multiply thy SEEDexceedingly, that it shall not be NUMBEREDfor multitude. GENESIS 16:10   (Prophecy to Hagar)

Sounds familiar? God says return with the promised child of Abraham. He promises Hagar that her seed will be so great that no man can number. Didn’t God say the exact same thing to Abraham about their seed? Now look at the next verse as the Angel says the same thing to Hagar as God promised Abram ten years earlier:


  • And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to NUMBER them so shall thy SEEDbe. GENESIS 15:5  (Prophecy to Abraham)

God has spoken to both Abram and his wife Hagar on the same subject of how great the multitude of their children will be. A number so great that neither Abraham nor Hagar will be able to number.

As you can see this is all in the bible as proof!


  • And the angel of the Lord said unto “HER” Behold, thou art with CHILD and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name ISHMAEL because the Lord has heard thy affliction. GENESIS 16:11

The Angel tells Hagar that she is with the promised child of Abraham and also what the child’s name is to be; Ishmael. What does the name Ishmael mean in Hebrew?
                                                    
  • HEBREW

"ISHMAEL": Hebrew name meaning " God hears:

Amazing, the name Ishmael means: God hears. Remember again, the angel told Hagar the name of the child, she did not come up with the name on her own. 

This lets us know that the name Ishmael means:



God’s answer to Abram’s prayers

Wow! What a revelation!

Now Abram and Hagar are on the same page because the scriptures let us know that it is Abram the father who determines the name of the child. We also know the name is the same that is told to Hagar as well:

  • And Hagar bare Abram a son: and Abram called HIS SON’Sname ISHMAEL. GENESIS 16:11

We see that Ishmael is not an illegitimate child, He is the offspring of his married mother and father; the first-born child of the promise:

  • And Abram was FOUR SCORE AND SIX years old when Hagar bare ISHMAEL.” to Abram. GENESIS 16:16
Abram was 86 years old when Hagar gave him a son. 

Again whose son? It is Abram's son Ishmael period.  
(Don't forget Abraham's age because this will be a KEY FACTOR later on when the truth is uncovered!)
 From what you have read, it's clear that Ishmael was the original fulfillment of prophecy before the false prophets of Israel changed the truth into a lie. 

Apparently it was lies such as this by the priests and prophets that eventually led to the destruction of  Israel and Abraham's seed. For the bible says:


New International Version


  • "'How can you say, "We are wise, for we have the law of the LORD," when actually the lying pen of the scribes has handled it falsely? Jeremiah 8:8
 As you can see, God said they wrote lies not me!

Now let’s move on to chapter 17.

  • And when Abram was NINETY and NINE years old, the lord appeared to Abram, and said I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect! And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly. GENESIS 17:1, 2

Notice the very first word “AND” is used to show us the continuation of verse 16 of the previous chapter. 

Thirteen years have passed and Abram is now 

ninety-nine years old. 

We do not have a history of all that went on in the pass thirteen years so things are left to speculation at this point. 

Maybe false gods were springing up in the land where Abram resided and Abram might have thought of turning to one of them. 

There has to be a reason for God to reappear to Abram to tell him again that it is He alone that is the Almighty God? 

We really don’t know…


THE PROMISE:


God makes a promise to Abram. If Abram will continue follow Him, God says the covenant that He made with Abram will come true and that He would multiply Abrams health, wealth, bloodline, and prosperity in great abundance. 

  • As for me, behold my covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations. GENESIS 17:4
God is reaffirming His promise to Abram about his children’s future.

  • Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee. GENESIS 17:5

Abram is now Abraham because God has already made Him a father of many nations. Clearly it has already begun and Isaac still is nowhere in the picture. 

Now folks I think this is a perfect time to pause and reflect on how old ISHMAEL is at this time? He is now officially: 


THIRTEEN -YEARS OLD! 


He is the love of Abraham's life. Every time he looks at this child He sees God and knows that God's word and prophecies are true! Halle-lu-YAH!   

(Now don't forget this child's age because it will become crucial later on in this story.)

Okay folks now remember how I asked you to remember Abraham's age earlier? 

Now let's get down to the big question OF THE DAY:



ISAAC OR ISHMAEL?: WHICH CHILD WAS TO BE SACRIFICED?"


 Now this is the million dollar question!

This calls for logic step-by-step deduction to solve this issue.

According the bible in Chapter 21, the entire section was about Ishmael. Now suddenly in the very next chapter we are to believe the focus switches to a little baby named Isaac? let's read:

  • 1 And it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I am.
  • And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of. Genesis 22:1-2    
Now this is the section where I asked you to remember Abraham's age! I want you to look at important timeline scriptures about events surrounding Abraham's age:

  • And Abram was FOUR SCORE AND SIX years old when Hagar bare ISHMAEL.” to Abram. GENESIS 16:16

The Scriptures state that Abraham was "86" years old when ISHMAEL.  was born.

  • Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin. GENESIS 17:24
The Scriptures state that Abraham was "99" years old when the COVENANT is established. 
 
Now we see that makes Abraham's son Ishmael 13 years old. 


Now how old is Isaac at this time? 

That’s right you guess it, Isaac was not even conceived as of yet. The scriptures make it clear for us: 
  • Abraham was a hundred years old when his son Isaac was born to him. GENESIS 21:5

The Scriptures state that Abraham was "100" years old when the COVENANT is established. 

With these things being said. the timeline reads:

  1. Abraham was 86-years old when the prophecy was fulfilled.
  2. Abraham was 99-years old when he made a covenant with God.
  3. Abraham was 100-years old when Isaac was finally born.
This means during the circumcision/sacrifice, Abraham's only "begotten" son is Ishmael and not Isaac, as the "Jewish" scribes/men would falsely have us to believe.



Now concerning the sacrifice during this time. The bible gives us something else to think about:
And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it upon Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and a knife; and they went both of them together.Genesis 22:6  
When Abraham was heading towards the mountain for the sacrifice, he made the child carry the wood for the fire.





With that being said, which child is old enough to carry this wood on such a long Journey Ishmael the 13 year old or Isaac the new born baby?

From the timeline given there is no way baby Isaac was the one to be sacrificed! I know it and now you have read it and know it as well! 



In verses 6 thru 9, God promises Abraham that His seed will produce great kings and great nations. The covenant will not only be with Abraham but with all of his children and their children: 


What is that covenant?



  • This is MY COVENANT which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee; every man child among you shall be CIRCUMCISED 
  • And ye shall circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a TOKEN of the covenant betwixt me and you. GENESIS 17:10, 11
The circumcision ritual is to be done as a token or pact between God and Abraham. 

Notice how Isaac is not even a fore-thought while God is making the promise of making Abraham’s seed a great nation and kings.

From verses 9 thru 14 God speaks of the covenant and the rituals that all of Abraham’s children and servant and all that dwell in His household must do to honor the covenant. 

Now we have proven that Hagar was the mother of the original first-born child of the promise. Now something else is about to occur!


In verse 15 God will not exclude Abraham’s first wife Sarai from the promise. 


He then changes Sarai’s name to Sarah. Then next verse is very insightful:
  • And I will bless her/SARAH, and give thee a son ALSO of her: Yea, I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nation; kings of people shall be of her. GENESIS 17:16
Did you get that? Hagar' child is the fulfillment of the prophecy! 

Although the promised child was Ishmael, God refuses to leave Sarah out of the fold and blesses her as well. 

God informs Abraham that He will ALSOgive him an additional son by his first wife Sarah too. 


How shocking is this???

  • Then Abraham fell upon his face, and laughed, and said in his heart, shall a child be born unto him that is an hundred years old? And shall Sarah that is ninety years old bear? GENESIS 17:17

This verse is very shocking in its revelations to the world. Now we see that Abraham already has his promised child and is very content. 

When God decided to bless Sarah, This was so outrageous to Abraham that he became tickled pink! It was so funny to think that old lady Sarah would have a child that Abraham couldn't contain himself and fell to the ground in laughter!

Now come on folks! You and I now can clearly see from this verse that Abraham never expected another child from God to be the child of the promise. Even worst to expect old lady Sarah's dried up womb to capable of carrying a child! Wow!

Now folks, the scriptures are clear that not only did Abraham laugh at what the Angel of the Lord said, but when Sarai heard it she too had to laugh at such a statement:

New Living Translation
  • So she laughed silently to herself and said, "How could a worn-out woman like me enjoy such pleasure, especially when my master--my husband--is also so old?" Genesis 18:12
As you can see, both Abraham and Sarai both knew Ishmael was given by God as the fulfillment of prophecy. Hearing that they would have another child was hilarious both to Abraham and also to Sarai.

Once again,


God's word shows us the truth when evil men would set out to change it!


God was quite clear thirteen years earlier when He promised Abraham a son and that the promised child was to be called Ishmael. 

When God decided to include Sarah and another child, Abraham had to laugh because he thought he also had become too old to sire another child. Abraham assumes the angel of the Lord was mistaken:

  • And Abraham said unto God, O that ISHMAEL might live before thee. GENESIS 17:18

God was not taking Ishmael away from Abraham; He is just adding another seed, one of many to come to the promise:

  • And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name ISAACand I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him. GENESIS 17:19

The way this verse is translated has caused so much strife between the children of Ishmael/Muslims, and the children of Isaac/Jews, for centuries…

Is God claiming that the promise is only with Isaac in this verse? Of course not! 

As concerning Isaac, Genesis 17:16 said the word: “ALSO” about Sarah’s child being included as one of Abraham’s many promised children. God will establish His covenant with Sarah’s child too along with Hagar’s son Ishmael.  

The Jews thought this verse was solely speaking of Isaac being the sole beneficiary of the promise. This is not true. 

Notice in verse 18, Abraham thought something was to happen to the first child of the promise Ishmael. God lets the world know that Ishmael too was included in the original promise:

  • And as for ISHMAEL I have HEARD THEEI have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly’ twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation.  GENESIS 17:20

Remember, the original promise God made to Abraham was that He would multiply his seed, which He has, and that He would give Abraham’s children vast amounts of land. That is all. 

God eases Abraham’s fears about Ishmael and assures Abraham nothing is going to happen to him. God promises to bless Ishmael and to make great nations and kings from Him. 

Common sense should tell us that in order for Ishmael’s seed to be kings of great nations then they would have to have great amounts of land also. Duh!


THE RE-WRITING DECEPTION BEGINS:


  • But my covenant will I establish with ISAACwhich Sarah shall bear unto thee at this set time in the next year. And he left off talking with him and God went up from Abraham.  GENESIS 17:21, 22

Now I ask you: 

“Is it possible for the children of Isaac to have added these two verses to show their dominance?”
Doesn’t it seem very strange that no explanation is given to Abraham accept an: “I said so” answer? 

Let’s look at the next verse for clues:

  • And Abraham took ISHMAEL HIS SONand all that were born in his house, and all that were male among the men of Abraham’s house; and circumcised the flesh of their foreskin in the SAME DAY as God had said unto Him. GENESIS 17:23


Why circumcise Ishmael if he were not to be part of the Covenant and promise of God? 

It would seem that verses 21, 22 may be additions by vain Jewish scribes because it would seem the scriptures have much more clarity without those additional verses.  

Without those added verses we can deduct:

1.    God decides to include Sarah’s child also into the promise.

2.     Abraham gets nervous about the fate of His son Ishmael.

3.     God reassures Abraham of Ishmael’s promised destiny. 

4.    Abraham on theSAME DAY” circumcised his then only child Ishmael and all the men of His household as proof of his covenant with God.

As you can see all of these biblical points are proof that Ishmael was the initial first heir to the promises of God.

 Now you know…


Now all strife between the sons of Abraham happened when evil entered Sarah and she decided to destroy Abraham’s first child Ishmael!

  • And Sarah said, God hath made me to laugh so that all that hear will laugh with me. And she said, who would have said unto Abraham that Sarah should have given children suck? For I have born him a son in his old age. GENESIS 21:6, 7
Sarah is very happy and glad to show the world that she was able to finally bare a son to her husband. She can now raise her head up high again, because she has a child of her own. 

Now that she has a child there is one too many children in this household! Satan slips in the back door!


 JEALOUSY ENTERS ABRAHAM’S HOUSE:
  • And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, which she had born unto Abraham mocking. GENESIS 21:9 
Sarah says: 

“What? You, a lowly child of a slave are making fun of my child? YOU MUST GO!”
  • Wherefore she said unto Abraham, CAST OUT this bondwoman and her SON!” for the son of the bondwoman shall NOT be HEIRwith MY SON even with Isaac! GENESIS 21:10 

Wow, is it possible that from a little harmless teasing from one child to another allowed Satan to enter Sarah and command her Husband to end His marital relationship with his second wife and cheat a little child out of His promised inheritance? I do not know, all we know is Sarah says:

That slave’s son will NEVER be an heir with mine!” Sarah in her outrage tells Abraham that Ishmael shall not be even or better said: “EQUAL” with her son! Wow, A potential cat fight in the making!

Poor old Abraham! Can you imagine hearing Sarah's whiny and angry voice in your head just allowing Satan to work through her?



Hence, Abraham is forced to grievously give in to Sarah and force his wife Hagar and son Ishmael to depart into a treacherous desert to fend for themselves. 

Wow, could all of this because of the jealously of one spoiled and envious woman?

It would be so sad that this woman could possibly be the cause of the children of Abraham’s fighting to this very day and not accepting each other as legitimate children of the bloodline of Abraham.

Now many of us do not know there was another version of this story once in the bible before the Jews or someone else decided to remove this book entirely. The book is known as:                                                          
The "BOOK OF JASHAR"

Why this gospel was taken out is unknown to me. However the book of Jashar was originally in the bible and other books quote directly from it:
  • Is this not written in the Book of Jashar? The sun stopped in the midst of heaven and did not hurry to set for about a whole day. Joshua 10:12-13
  • 18 and he said it1 should be taught to the people of Judah; behold, it is written in the Book of Jashar He said: 19  “Your glory, O Israel, is slain on your high places! How the mighty have fallen! 2nd Samuel 1: 18-27
 So as you can see, the book of Jashar should have never been removed from the bible. 

With that being said,  you can read of another more compelling reason why Ishmael was forced to leave from a chapter in the Book of Jashar by clicking on the link below:

As we continue,

God allows Abraham to submit to Sarah’s wishes and again proves that Ishmael is a child of the Promise despite what Sarah wishes. Look as God includes both children:

  • …Hearken unto her voice; for in “ISAAC” shall thy seed be called and ALSO of the SONof the bondwoman will I make a nation, because HE is THY SEED. GENESIS 21:12, 13 

Can we say anymore on these two verses? Clearly God tells Abraham to do what Sarah commands and not to worry; Ishmael will be protected by Him and flourish like God promised thirteen years ago. 
Why will God do all this for Abraham? God says: 


“...because HE is THY SEED." AMEN…

Did you get that folks, Ishmael is the first born child of the promise but BOTH CHILDREN, are INCLUDED ALSO!

Again in spite of the editing of these scriptures to deny Ishmael his true birthright, God knew these events would take place.  

Moses even wrote about such family birthright squabbles and when the two wives cannot get along and hate each other:

You are gonna love this folks!

Pay attention to the HIGHLIGHTED words! I will add in the names of our participants so you can get a clear understanding of how all of this fits with the drama in Abraham's life:

  •  "If a man have two wives, one beloved/SARAH and another hated/HAGAR, and they have born him children, both the beloved/ISAAC and the hated/ISHMAEL; and if the firstborn son be hers that was hated
ME: (SOUNDS FAMILIAR?)

  • Then it shall be, when he maketh his sons to inherit that which he has, that he may not make the son of the beloved firstborn before the son of the hated, which is indeed the firstborn

 ME: (When it comes to Abraham's inheritance, God says ISAAC cannot come before the hated child Ishmael!)

  • But he shall acknowledge the son of the hated/HAGAR for the firstborn, by giving him/ISHMAEL a double portion of all that he has: for he/ISHMAEL is the beginning of the strength; the right of the firstborn is his/ISHMAEL."Deuteronomy 21:15-17:

ME: (God's law confirms that Ishmael the hated son will always be the FIRSTBORN and shall receive a double portion of Abraham's inheritance)



Don't you love it when God leaves no room for man's RE-EDITING or RE-interpretation of his word?
Clearly Ishmael is the CHOSEN prophetic child and first-born of the promise not Isaac!

As we continue, Abraham sends his wife and firstborn child away into the wilderness of Beersheba. 


With water and food supplies depleted Hagar cries out to her God for assistance. The angel of the Lord consoles her and let’s her know that God heard the child’s voice. God then reaffirms the promise to her:


  • Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in thine hand: for I will make him (Ishmael) a GREAT NATION.” GENESIS 21:18
God then provides water and food for Hagar and Ishmael to continue in the desert. The bible then let’s us know that God was always with Ishmael the child of the promise all His days. 

The bible leaves us no clue of what happens to Ishmael from then on and possibly by a vain scholar takes on a more singular Pro-Judaism view of the heritage of only Isaac. 

In verse 22, the bible says God decides to tempt Abraham. 

Notice however how the writer in a subtle fashion decides to forget about the existence of Abraham’s first born promised child altogether:


  • And he said, take now thy son, thine ONLY SONIsaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of. GENESIS 21:18

  • ONLY SON? ARE YOU KIDDING ME??
The bible just told us that God took care of Abraham’s FIRST-BORN SON in the desert while He grew up. 

Did Ishmael all of a sudden die? 

Did God really call Isaac Abraham’s only son or did the LYING pen of the scribes add this? 

Abraham knew he had two children, and it was God that gave them too Abraham as well? 

So would it make it sense to say God made such a statement as your “ONLY” son? HECK NO!



Notice again how the Satanic writer TRIES to makes God lie and claim that Isaac is Abraham’s only son again even at the sacrificial offering site:

  • …For I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine ONLY SONfrom me. 
  • 16 …By myself have I sworn, saith the Lord, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son thine ONLY SON. GENESIS 22:12&16
The writer was really trying to hammer his "ONLY" son point across wasn’t he?  

It wasn’t clear enough that Isaac was Abraham’s son; the writer wanted us to know that Isaac alone was Abraham’s ONLY SON.”  Total deception here folks!

The writer of the verse above wants us to believe that Isaac was Abraham’s only son. 

So I must ask you to decide biblically speaking: 


“Is Isaac Abraham’s “ONLY” son?”


According to the word of God Isaac is not Abraham’s only child. 

The scriptures make it very clear even after Abraham’s death Ishmael was considered a Legitimate SON” of Abraham:

·         And his (SONS) ISAAC and ISHMAEL buried him (Abraham) in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite, which is before Mamre. GENESIS 25:9

Here together both of Abraham’s children; Ishmael and Isaac AS ONE, (Plural) burying their father. 



I pray that I am not offending the Jewish people or the Muslim people in anything that I have said. All that I am attempting to do is offer reconciliation between the offspring of the two legitimate children of Abraham. 

The Jews believed Ishmael to be a bastard child and not entitled to the promises of God. Even the New Testament writers decided not to include Ishmael in the promise:

  • By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his "ONLY" begotten son.  HEBREWS 11:17
The writer of Hebrew is incorrect because we have the confirmation by God in Chapter 25:9, that Ishmael was in fact a legitimate son. Even after Abraham died the promises of God were with Ishmael for the Holy Scripture says I will make great Nations from Ishmael

  • And ALSO of the SON of the bondwoman will I make a nation, because he (Ishmael) is THY SEED. GENESIS 21:13

Have you noticed the words from the Almighty God that says ALSO? By YHWH saying the word “ALSO” this entitles Ishmael and his seed the royal inheritance from God that Isaac also has. 

Why? Because YHWH himself says that Ishmael is ABRAHAM’S (SON!)  

Now if YHWH says this is so, who are we to say it is not the truth? Will you call God a LIAR?  I hope not. We often sing a song in our churches:  

"Whose Report will you believe, We will believe the Report of the Lord!"

I say again Fast, Pray, and Study.  Read/Seek to find the truth that God has for each and every one of us.  Do not rely on the Preacher or me for your understanding of God for we are only men.

  1. You raised some good point here. And it is true that the scriptures have been tampered with. But in the book of the Ishmaelites themselves, the Qu'ran, it actually says in Sura (chapter) 2:47 , "O Children of Israel, remember My favor that I have bestowed upon you and that I preferred you over the worlds." This in the Qu'ran itself, which states that the Children of Israel are God's chosen above all nations. Therefore why would the Qu'ran itself say this ? Also, the mother of Ishmael is Hagar, an Egyptian, which means Ishmael was a black man because the Egyptians were black as well as the Hebrews. Why is it that the afro ethnicity of the people being written about ALWAYS get ignored by scholars when the scriptures specifically mention Colour and texture of hair ?

    1. Truth Hitman the Hebrews are God's chosen people that is true but in the context of the Quaran it was a lesson that the speaker is trying to tell the house of Israel that God has chosen them to do a great work. The writer is not saying the Muslims are not apart of this promise. Just that the Israelites are disobeying God and forgetting about the God that brought them out of Egypt. Nothing more... As far as you question about Ishmael being Black. Remember this, they ALL WERE BLACK,, Think about it, how can a JEW such as MOSES be raised as the daughter of a black Egyptian if that child wasn't as DARK SKINNED AS SHE WAS? So the KEMITES AND SEMITES were the same skin tone and ethnicity!!!

  2. First of I would like to start by saying Al Salamo Alaykom which is the same greetings the Jews used but in Arabic since I am a Muslim Arab.

    I appreciate what you have done and I couldn't agree more on almost everything you have said. We are not fighting the Jews because they say Isaac was the offered son. We love all prophets of God equally. We love Adama Noah Lot Abraham Isaac Ishmael Jacob David Solomon Moses Jesus and the others whom I didn't mention but you got the picture.
    The Quran testifies that the Jews were the chosen people by God as the brother in the earlier reply said. And we believe in the books and revelations God sent these prophets. We are only fighting the Jews because they want to kill our Palestinian brothers and sisters not because they say Isaac is the only son who was to be sacrificed.
    We do not care about what they say because we know they have changed their scripture as did the Christians. The Quran testifies of that.
    The Quran tells us to come to common terms with the people of the book (Jews and Christians) to not worship but the one true Gof and do not associate anyone with him and to not take one another as lords.
    That's what we try to do with Jews and Christians.
    Regarding your beliefs you worship one God and you do not associate anyone with him and you submit yourself to him. By the Arabic definition of Islam my brother you are a Muslim. Furthermore you do not believe Jesus is the begotten son of God or God incarnate. You do not believe in the trinity. You belive Jesus was a mighty messenger. Basically you believe everything the Muslim believes except that Muhammad PBUH was the final messenger of Hod or as we call him Allah amd the Quran is his final eternal revelation.

    1. Thank you Fido, yes I believe many things that the Muslims believe in regards to Jesus, except that another prophet was needed. Now it's possible that Mohammad was sent by God. But why would he need to call God by another name than what Abraham called him?

    2. You see Jesus was only sent to the lost sheep of house Israel.
      I find in John 1 some very interesting verses
      19 And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, "Who are you?"
      20 He confessed, he did not deny, but confessed, "I am not the Christ."
      21 And they asked him, "What then? Are you Elijah?" He said, "I am not." "Are you the prophet?" And he answered, "No."

      John the Baptist PBUH we know. Elijah PBUH we know. The Christ PBUH we know as well. Who is the prophet that is not Christ and the Jews at the time where anticipating as well to comw after Christ?

      In the Quran we are told that all prophets and messengers PBUTforeshadowed the arrival of Muhammad PBUH.

      What about the gentiles? Who will guide them to the right path of God?
      Muhammad PBUH was sent not to Arabs only but to the whole world.
      (21-107) And We have not sent you, [O Muhammad], except as a mercy to the worlds.
      The Holy Quran

      As for God's name it doesn't matter what you called God as if you call him by a name he chose for himself.
      Do you Arab Jews call God Allah as well? Do you know Arab Christians say Allah as well?

  6. Sorry, Muhammad was not foreshadowed in the bible, and the word foreshadow is a made up word for those who search the bible to make their beliefs true. I have a chapter on this subject and I will present bible facts to prove that neither Jesus nor Muhammed were ever spoken of in the bible period..

  7. Your conclusion is not correct.
    1. The sacrifice in Moriah happened much later than the circumcision. Read bible again.
    2.It was Issac who was sacrificed as explained by all other prophets. But Mohammed had a need to market islam and to connect to Abraham. So he cooked up story of Ishmael, Mecca, Abraham etc. So he also invented it was Ishmael who was taken for sacrifice.
    3. If Bible/Jews can admit shameful sins of David, Jacob, Lot etc. they should not cook up this minor issue compared to others.
    4. Have you heard of Muslim custom of running between Safa and Marwa in Mecca. When Abraham abandoned Ishmael and Hagar in Mecca, Ishmael was a suckling baby. As per Mohammed/Ibn Abbas after drinking water Hagar suckled the baby. Abraham meets Ishmael later only after decades when Hagar dies and after Ishmael's marriage.

    How can these statements 2 and 4 above statements by Mohammed be true.
    Just like every other story one merchant cooked up stories in Arabia. Uneducated people believed greatest deception.
    Read/research/pray to know the real truth.

  9. Forgot to mention one of the best researchers of the ideology, Professor B. Warner. Doctor Warner has an excellent website with a multitude of information and multiple videos. His research spans 40 years and he's extremely thorough. Anyone who's interested in learning the 1400+ years of the ideology's history, his is by far the best website for reference.
