What This Study Explores
This Christian–Muslim study compares biblical and Qurʾānic appeals to Abraham while evaluating lineage, the Aqedah, imputed righteousness, incarnation versus inlibration, and the continuity of revelation.
Key Claims
- Scripture calls the Abrahamic promise gospel. Galatians 3:8 identifies worldwide blessing as advance good news.
- The covenantal seed reaches its focus in Messiah. Universal blessing develops through a specified lineage.
- Genesis 22 joins substitution and resurrection. The Aqedah is more than a test of meritorious obedience.
- Islamic tradition preserves early disagreement. The sacrificial son was not unanimously identified as Ishmael.
- Incarnation and inlibration are rival architectures. The biblical Word becomes flesh rather than an uncreated book.
