In this article called Christian Leaders In The United States Respond To Yasser Arafat's Death at http://www.assistnews.net/Stories/s04110053.htm Rev. Dr Clifton Kirkpatrick, Stated Clerk of the General Assembly; Elder Rick Ufford-Chase, Moderator, 216th General Assembly (2004) of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.); and Elder John Detterick, Executive Director, General Assembly made the statement “In all these things, we give glory to the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Ishmael, whom we worship in Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace.” According to Exodus 3:15, "And God said moreover unto Moses, Thou shalt say unto the children of Israel, The Lord God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations."  Jesus states the same thing in Matthew 22:32, Mark 12:26, and Luke 20:37 that God is the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob which is his name for ever.  According to Genesis 17:19, "And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him."  "His seed after him" was Jacob, and Jesus was not born from the line of Ishmael.
