1. The Bible states that God told Abraham to take his ONLY son, Isaac. This was supposedly done when Isaac was a teenager. Now at the time that Isaac was a teenager, Ishmael was also Abraham's son and in his twenties. Was the Bible wrong to state that Isaac was at that time Abraham's ONLY son or was God wrong to do so?
What do you know, my family is away and I decided to check in an there is a slew of questions from you my friend ksazma. Lucky for you I've time to entertain your juvenile questions.
Answer: I am going let you answer this yourself. When God said to Abraham, "take thy ONLY son whom you love" was Ishmael living or was he in the company of Abraham at that time?
Extremely weak response. Again not answering the question. See what I meant when I states that you haven't answered the questions.
Answer: Yes/No was Ishmael present when God told Abraham "take thy only son"? Answer it might set you free. I am asking you a question to help you answer your own question. ��
Present as in the same room, house, city, country? Does a person loses their status as a man's son if they are not in the same room, house, city, country? That is as silly an argument as any. Who dreamed up this doozie?
