Having become aware of the Muslim celebration of Eid al-Adah in the past weeks and having queried as to the significance of this occasion I was informed that the celebration is in honour of Abraham's willingness to sacrifice his son Ismael to YHUH. I did a double take - Ismael or Isaac? It is a very contentious issue so I looked up the following article which summed up everything as far as I could tell:
As contentious as it all may be the sum total of it all is this: there is no more need to dispute about geneologies and history as we are ALL now invited to share in the great gift which Yahushua offered to us - He shed His blood as a final sacrifice for ALL who are willing to accept Him and his Father YHUH through the Holy Spirit, in repentance. As it says in the Bible:
Acts 17:29-31 (KJV)
29Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of YHUH, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device.
30And the times of this ignorance YHUH winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:
31Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.
We must all move away from any form of idolatory whether physical idols, or love of money, or man's skewed doctrine which does away with YHUH's commandments and does despite to Yahushua's blood or which blasphemes the Holy Spirit. The man ordained is Yahushua who was raised from the dead. He is the only way, truth and life.
