Ishmael was born of Abraham’s seed; so one may think, “Why was Ishmael not born of Abraham’s seed?”
If one says we practice our faith, it means we know the only true God and His will, and act according to God’s will. In doing so, he can become God’s offspring and God’s child. This is how one becomes the family of God’s kingdom (heaven).
Ishmael was born of Abraham’s seed; so one may think, “Why was Ishmael not born of Abraham’s seed?” This is because God's Word is the law.
* Gn 21:12 It is through Isaac that your offspring will be reckoned.
Until the coming of Jesus, the people, or the descendants of Abraham , who were born since the time of Adam (the betrayers), were those born of the seed of flesh. They constantly broke the covenants of God. The worlds of Adam, Noah, and Moses all disappointed Him.
For this reason, God promised a new scenario (refer to Is 14:24), which He promised through the Old Testament prophets (Jer 31). Jesus fulfilled this promise by sowing the seed, which was the secrets of the kingdom of heaven. It was not the physical seed of Abraham, but it was the seed of God. The sowing of this seed of God (Mt 13:24) was the new work and the new covenant.
Since the time of Jesus, there have been orthodox people born of God’s seed, and gentiles not born of God’ seed, but of the seed of the gentile, the dragon. Non-Christians may claim that they were not born of the seed of the dragon, but since they were born of the seed of Adam, the criminal/sinner, they, too, are nothing but gentiles.
Today, the first judgment is taking place, but once the 1,000 years are over, there will be the second judgment (Rv 20:11-15). The partakers of the resurrection today are the participants of the first resurrection (Rv 20:4-6), and they are blessed people. The story beyond this will be kept as a secret. What is more, it is from today that the true gentiles and true orthodoxy are determined.
