Why Collision Course?
Abraham doubted and stumbled, as we all do. Because of that he left behind a legacy culminating in a collision course between Ishmael's descendants and God's chosen people (Deuteronomy 7:6), the Jewish nation and His Elect, Christ's Holy Church.
This enmity that began in antiquity has now manifestly escalated into the earth-shattering conflicts we see splashed all over our TV, on the Internet, and in the print news media daily. We see the hostility and imperialistic belligerence of Islam toward the rest of the world due to Abraham's impiety. However, we see it expressly directed at the Jew and the Christian.
For a thousand years, beginning with the Nakhla raid in the mid-seventh century until the Ottoman Empire was soundly defeated at the Battle of Vienna in 1643, Islam's goal was to conquer the world for Allah. It is clear in our day that Islam has once again rekindled its imperialistic mode.
In the course of doing research for my first book, Before the Final Trump, I discovered what I believe is an oft overlooked dynamic or link in the ebb and flow of the two disparate sons of Abraham. It is through the life of Abraham that God began to reveal that man comes to God only by faith, not works.
That being said, it is the case that most people don't seem to be able to connect the dots between Bible prophecy and everyday events and the end to which they are leading. This is also true of many Christians who should know what the Bible says and be able to tie it to the world in which we live--sadly that is not the case.
