In order to collect the $100,000 prize you must successfully explain three things and, for each explanation, cite from the Torah: a) the book b) the chapter and c) the verse ( In case you don’t know,: The Torah is ONLY the first five books of the Old Testament).
Before the events in Exodus 24 Abraham and his descendants were called either Hebrews or Children of Israel and they worshiped the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. After the events described in Exodus 24 they are still called either Hebrews or Children of Israel. So: Where is the conversion? (In fact, no one in the Torah is called a Jew. The first person called a Jew is Mordichai in the Book of Esther).
OCDG: The jews have theft in their DNA, physical and spiritual… they stole the birthright of Ishmael (Muslims). How did they accomplish this? Easy, they just abruptly turned their entire society upside down. The entirety of the Middle East was Patriarchal, including the people of Abraham… so how is it that suddenly the “jews” are the only ones in the region to pass inheritance down through the mother? I won’t go into all the specifics but suffice it to say that Hagar, Ishmael’s mother, was a servant of Abraham and the jealous jews looked down (what else is new?) on her as a slave but according to God’s law (or tradition if you’re so inclined), heredity was only passed down through the male lineage. So how to “trick” God and deceive everyone else? Claim that you are a matriarchal society and always have been. Never mind if someone brings up (once every few thousand years does a jew realize they’ve been bs’d enough to investigate) that Abraham was the FATHER of nations and all the associated “baggage” that comes with that.
You see, according to the Quran, which every Muslim believes is the inerrant literal word of God, it was Ishmael, Abraham’s first born son that was offered up for sacrifice (willingly, he was told of this and accepted, as would befit righteous men God chose to lead mankind, not like the devilish way the Prophets are depicted in judaism). They go through a lot of warped logic and other shenanigans to make sure Isaac is instead put in Ishmael’s place.
Though you see, that isn’t enough… they have to malign Ishmael and His mother too, as icing on the cake. The lying scribes have described Ishmael as a mad man:
And he will be a wild man; his handwill be against every man, and every man’s hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren. -Genesis 16:12
So they defame Him and just ask any jew or judeo-Christian today and they’ll tell you:
Then we have this verse :
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 17:20
To the unaided eye this contradicts with the previous quote… but if you understand what actually occurred then it will be crystal clear :
Check out http://quranandbible.blogspot.com/2014/01/ishmael-and-isaac-in-quran-and-bible.html (or a whole host of others like it) to see the “other side”
The jews thought they could add and subtract to God’s word… but those with eyes that can see, can still find remnants of the truth in the Old Testament. This is yet another sign from God…
There are many who will read this and say “so what” “who gives a care”… if you don’t realize the enormous importance of this, I kindly ask you to refrain from commenting.
I have been mentioning this switch for a long time on various boards to demonstrate one reason why Judaism is false. Even the New Testament has the Patriarchal line leading to Jesus. How a matriarchy came about is beyond me. Could be because Motherhood is never in doubt.
Either way, about Galatians. The Catholic Church always taught that Hagar is a type of the Old Covenant, or the Law, or the Jews. Sara, on the other hand, is the type for the Church. This has nothing to do with Muslims. Just like the entire New Testament does not mention Muslims. As always were talking carnal vs spiritual. That’s all Blessed Paul in his letter to the Galatians is getting at in these particular verses.

No, not at all – Jews are perfidious, so in the old times, when males were slaughtered, but some females, young, not much used, were saved, this idea about “mother -> jews” was giving the chance, that even after slaughtering all Jews, they will slowly recover.
So the victors, tired after slaughtering, sleepy after copulating with Jewesses, didn’t know their future…
All well and good and I like how you think, but it all comes down to is this,is the bible true.So there you can see how they can go aganist the word of god.There has to be a god for it to be true?There is a big connection with Egyptian gods and their gods and quite possible Moses, Abraham etc, are all Pharoahs and your connection is the Hebrews were there took their religion but changed it to suit them.Thats where you might have this problem about the scribes changinging the word of god.There is definitely something going on , but all the old text were desroyed and covered up.Please read Osman Ahmeds books,maybe true and puts a new lght ands seems to connect the dots.Just food for thought.

“Just like the entire New Testament does not mention Muslims.”
Does NT mention the words “Christian,” “Christianity,” or “Church”? No. You will never find these words or their Greek equivalent in the NT! And by the way, the Old Testament never mentions the word “Judaism.”
The words “Muslim” and “Islam” are Arabic words, and therefore how does anyone expect to see Arabic words in Greek or English Bibles? Islam is a religion that requires its followers to submit their will to the Will of their Creator. Hence, a Muslim is a person who has chosen to submit his/her will to the Will of his/her Creator. Now check your Bible thoroughly and you will discover that Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Jesus submitted their will to the Will of their Creator. Therefore, what should their faith be called in Arabic language? ISLAM. In fact, all the prophets were Muslims, because they chose to submit their will to the Will of their Creator!
I do not believe in “the books” nor that humans were created in Mesapotamia. There is far too much evidence of very ancient global cultures and societies pre dating ” the books”.
But as far as the writings go and the mayhem that they bring because of religious beliefs, this is a very good piece
@ the discussion between gloriosaedominae1 and akidahamad …
Jesus DID say the word ‘Muslim’ in the original Aramaic Gospel.
LUKE 6:40 (in Aramaic) :
“EIN TALMEED NA’LEH ‘AL RABBO; SHEKKEN KAL ADAM SHE’MUSHLAM YIHYEH K’RABBO.”
Translation: : “No student can be above his Teacher, but anyone that is ‘Muslim’ (completely submitted to Al’lah/ God) can be as his Teacher.”
[This, by the way, resonates with the Sunni stance on ‘Succession’ of Leadership.]
[One must remember that Hebrew, Aramaic and Arabic share the same Root language, which is known as “Common Semitic”.]
It appears that a Key to enhancing Muslim-Christian understanding/ bond is to go back to Aramaic. It’ll get rid of Judeo-Zio-Christian/Evangelical ploys and assaults on “Peace and Harmony among Humanity”. It’ll put the Terry Jones’ out of business soon, too.
[I give due credit for the Aramaic Translation to a brother called Reality Check on Google+. May God Bless him/ his efforts, and may Blessed Jesus greet him with glad tidings upon his return.]
