Believers in Christ are Abraham's seed and are partakers of the covenant. We, or some of us... partake of Mt. Zion (new covenant) and are heirs with Isaac, son or the free woman.
The son of the free woman was never divorced. It was those that thought they were the son of the freewoman. Jesus called them a brood of vipers. He also told them that their father was the devil.
You seem to mege islam with christianity. Have you considered joining the chrislam movement?
