Muslims claim that the black stone that is known as the Moon God was a covenant
made by God with Abraham. Muslims claim that it was cast down from the heaven. It's
believed to a meteorite.
Lets turn to the Holy Bible and see what it has to say about covenants with Abraham.
And then you can decide for yourself who is right.
Ge 15:18 -
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 river Euphrates:
Ge 17:2 -
And I will make my covenant between me
and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly.
Ge 17:4 -
As for me, behold, my covenant is with
thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations.
Ge 17:7 -
And I will establish my covenant between
me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy seed after
thee.
Ge 17:9 -
And God said unto Abraham, Thou shalt keep my covenant
therefore, thou, and thy seed after thee in their generations.
Ge 17:10 -
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
As you can see there is NOT one single mention
of a stone in any of the scriptures above.
THE TRUTH ABOUT ISLAM
It is extremely important to realize that the KORAN was
written in about 500 AD, a few THOUSAND years AFTER most of the Old Testament and
almost 500 years AFTER the New Testament. Little do most Muslims realize that there
so-called "prophet" simply bastardized the teachings of the Bible - he
tried to rewrite Scripture. They refuse to
except the overwhelming evidence of uncovered transcripts, artifacts, scrolls, and
records that prove what Islam is really about. History such as this does not lie
about the truth. You cannot forge a artifact without any kind of detection.
ALLAH - THE FICTITIOUS 'MOON GOD
In Old Testament times, Nabonidus (555-539 BC), the last king
of Babylon, built Tayma, Arabia as a center of Moon-god worship. Segall stated,
"South Arabia's stellar religion has always been dominated by the Moon-god
in various variations." When the popularity of the Moon-god waned elsewhere,
the Arabs remained true to their conviction that the Moon-god was the greatest of
all gods. While they worshipped 360 gods at the Kabah in Mecca, the Moon-god was
the chief deity. Mecca was in fact built as a shrine for the Moon-god. The
pagan Arabs worshipped the Moon-god Allah by praying toward Mecca several times a
day; making a pilgrimage to Mecca; running around the temple of the Moon-god called
the Kabah; kissing the black stone; killing an animal in sacrifice to the Moon-god;
throwing stones at the devil; fasting for the month which begins and ends with the
crescent moon; giving alms to the poor, etc.
The Muslim's claim that Allah is the God of the Bible and that
Islam arose from the religion of the prophets and apostles is refuted by solid, overwhelming
archeological evidence. Islam is nothing more than a revival of the ancient Moon-god
cult. It has taken the symbols, the rites, the ceremonies, and even the name
of its god from the ancient pagan religion of the Moon-god. As such, it is sheer
idolatry and must be rejected by all those who follow the Torah and Gospel. For a

WHO RECEIVED GOD'S COVENANT?
As the foundation of the Islamic faith, Muslims are taught that Ishmael was their
father, and that Ishmael received the Covenant of God through Abraham. In the Koran,
Surah III reads:
"We believe in God, and that which has been sent down on us, and sent down on
Abraham and Ishmael, Isaac
and Jacob, and the Tribes, and in that which was given to Moses and Jesus, and the
prophets, of their Lord; we make no division between [distinction among] any of them,
and to Him we surrender. "Surah III
A few simple facts:
*
Ishmael was the son of Abraham and Hagar --- the handmaid,
or bondswoman, of Sarah.
*
Ishmael was conceived in adultery, in sin, when Abraham slept
with his maidservant! In doing so, the child was to be an outcast forever.
*
It was prophesied through the angel of the Lord: "he will
be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man's against
him" (Genesis 6:12).
*
God unequivocally established His covenant through Isaac and certainly NOT through
Ishmael (Genesis 17:18-22).
*
Ishmael and Hagar were to become outcasts --- banished by
Abraham as commanded by God (Genesis 21:9-12).
*
Ishmael was disinherited, which is confirmed in Gen 22:2, when
God commands Abraham to take his "only
son"
- Isaac! (Genesis 22: 2, 12, and 16).
*
Once Ishmael was outcast, he is mentioned only in genealogies
(Genesis 25:9-17 and 1 Chronicles 1:28-31) and in his alliance with the disinherited
son of Isaac, Esau.
God said plainly:
*
"I will establish my covenant with ISAAC. For an
everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him. (Genesis 17:19);
*
"My Covenant will I establish with ISAAC"
(Genesis 17:21);
*
"Let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the lad,
and because of the bondswoman... for in ISAAC shall thy seed be called"
(Genesis 21:12).
History records quite clearly the events concerning Ishmael
and the Covenant of God, which Mohammed then turns upside down in a series of blatant
lies and untruths:
*
"And we [Allah] made covenant with Abraham and Ishmael
. . ."Surah II
*
"And mention in the Book Ishmael; he was true to
his promise, and he was a Messenger, a Prophet. He bade his people to pray and give
alms, and he was pleasing to his Lord."Surah XIX
Today, because of Mohammed's lies, all Muslims believe that
Abraham is their father through Ishmael.
It is in this plain and simple falsehood that Islam falls flat on it's face.
They blindly follow the teachings of a mad
paedophile who taught that:
*
"No; Abraham in truth was not a Jew (??), neither
a Christian; but he was a Muslim and one pure of faith ." Surah III
Abraham wasn't a Jew?!? Unfortunately, history
says otherwise.
*
The Apostle Paul in his letter to the Galatians spoke distinctly
on this very subject:
"For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the
other by a freewoman. But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but
he of the freewoman was by promise. Which things are an allegory: for these are the
two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is
Agar [Hagar]. For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem
which now is, and is in bondage with her children. But Jerusalem which is above us
is free, which is the mother of us all. For it is written, Rejoice thou barren that
bearest not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: for the desolate hath
many more children than she which hath an husband. Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children
of promise. But as then he [Ismael/Muslim] that was born after the flesh persecuted
him that was born after the Spirit [Isaac/Jew/Christian], even so it is now.
Nevertheless what saith the scripture? Cast out the
bondwoman and her son (Ismael): for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with
the son of the freeman. So then, brethren, we are
not children of the bondwoman, but of the free."
Galatians 4:22-31. This couldn't be clearer!
History, sensible thinking and logical research exposes the
very foundation of Islam to be a lie.
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth,
and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
