Christianity wasn’t started with Abraham...🤣

[@Googoogagamf]

But it did....

[@eduardowollants820]

It technically did. So christianity, islam and judaism all have the same roots (and basically the same god). They all believe in the Old Testament so for them everything begins with Abraham

[@bloodyrebel2512]

Christianity is just a title given to identify a group of people. Abraham is a model of faith in the Bible. Abraham believed God and it was accounted to him as righteousness. People who have the faith of Abraham is a child of Abraham according to God's promises to Abraham. Abraham shows us faith in God is what makes a person righteous in God's eyes. The Law of God didn't come until Moses yet God said Abraham obeyed his Law before it was given because God Law was written on the tablet on his heart. Abraham existence was pre- Law yet he was a righteous man because his faith.

[@bloodyrebel2512]

@@eduardowollants820 Islam doesn't believe Jesus is God do not acknowledge the same God. God is known commonly as the God of Abraham Issac and Jacob. Islamic believe the Abrahamic promise went Ishmael not Issac. Judaism are still waiting for the Messiah therefore rejecting the claims of Jesus himself made about being the Messiah
