Blessings on Ishmael
A lot of unfortunately ignorant pastors, right wing watchers, and muslim imams are speaking against The Call, saying its divisive because we are doing something against muslims. We are not against muslims, we are for muslims being saved from sin by Jesus Christ and stepping into their full blessing and calling as the sons of Abraham!
God told Abraham that He would bless all the nations of the earth through His family. That includes not only Isaac – but Ishmael. It includes not only Jacob – but Esau! It includes Jews and Gentiles, and every nation of the earth.
Jesus Christ is the seed of Abraham that God uses to bless every people group of the earth. Instead of keeping a bunch of religious laws, we get to trust in the fact that Jesus hung on a tree for us and took our punishment as the lamb of God. That is part of the blessing of Abraham that is for everyone!
13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written , Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14 That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. Galatians 3
I was preaching the gospel earlier this week, I had a couple of conversations with some very religious people. One was into Sikkhism – he worked for his church, tried to do right, and everything, but he knew he wasn’t clean from all his sins, and he was just hoping that he was good enough for his god to let him in. Another group was Muslim – they didn’t even know if they were going to heaven, or what level of they were going into, but they were very devout.
Jesus came to give you The Way! He is the only guaranteed Truth, and Life. No one gets to the Father but by Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is a True Prophet, and this is what He said. So that makes Him more than a Prophet. If this wasn’t true, that would make Him a false Prophet.
6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way *, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. – Jesus Christ (John 14:6)
The Blessing of Ishmael
20 And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee : Behold, I 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
Even though God brought the Messiah Jesus Christ through Isaac, Jacob, and the Jews – God put a special blessing on the sons of Ishmael. Twelve princes, (national leadership), and a great people group. Many of the muslim nations consist of the sons of Ishmael. They are blessed.
But a much greater Eternal blessing is coming when they come to salvation through Christ and get rid of their dependence on the false prophet Muhammed. Jesus Christ is the only offering of sinless blood that can wash away the sins of Ishmael, Esau, Israel, and every other nation of the earth.
