The Secret Faith of Abraham

Why the Patriarch Never Knew Yahweh

For centuries, people have assumed that Abraham worshipped the Old Testament God named

Yahweh. However, a close look at history, ancient texts, and early Christian records reveals a

shocking truth. Abraham did not worship Yahweh. Instead, Abraham actually bypassed this

dark entity entirely. He worshipped the true, loving Supreme Being, known today as the Good Father.

The proof begins right inside the Torah itself. In Exodus 6:3, God makes a startling confession to

Moses: "I appeared to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob as God Almighty, but by my name Yahweh I

was not known to them." This is a massive textual clue. If the text itself admits Abraham did not even

know the name Yahweh, then Abraham could not have been Yahweh’s servant. When Abraham gave

his tithes and worship in Genesis, he directed them to a different title: El Elyon (Allah swt), which means The Most High God. Abraham’s faith was pure, simple, and peaceful, existing long before the scary laws, blood sacrifices, and angry commands of Yahweh were created.

Early Christian history also backs up this secret. A famous second-century Christian leader named

Marcion argued that the God of Jesus was completely different from the angry creator god of the Old Testament. Marcion’s enemies, like a writer named Tertullian, tried to claim that Marcion hated

Abraham. But if we look at the actual Bible verses Marcion kept, we see that Tertullian was lying. In

Marcion’s Gospel, Jesus describes a beautiful, peaceful sanctuary in the afterlife called "Abraham’s Bosom." Marcion called this place a "heavenly harbor." If Abraham belonged to the evil creator, his afterlife would not be a safe haven. Abraham’s Bosom was actually a pocket of safety created by the Good Father, where Abraham protected good souls from Yahweh's cruel judgment until Jesus arrived.

Finally, Jesus himself explicitly separated Abraham from Yahweh's religious system. In John 8, Jesus has a fierce debate with religious leaders who claim they represent God. Jesus shocks them

by saying, "You belong to your father, the devil" (John 8:44). But in the very same conversation,

Jesus speaks beautifully of Abraham, saying, "Your father Abraham rejoiced at the thought of seeing my day" (John 8:56). Jesus openly called their deity a murderous devil, but called Abraham a holy visionary.

When we connect all these dots, the history becomes perfectly clear. Abraham didn't bow to a local, angry tribal god. He bowed directly to Allah, the universal Good Father of mercy and light. Centuries later, the adversarial entity Yahweh tried to rewrite history to claim Abraham's legacy, but the texts still hold the truth. Abraham belongs to the Good Father, and the Good Father is the true God of Abraham.

The Antitheses is the exact place where Marcion quoted Exodus 6:3 ("by my name Yahweh I was not known to them"). He used it in his book to point out that even the Old Testament admitted its own god was local and unknown to the ancient patriarchs, contrasting it with Jesus' statement that no one knew the True Father until the Son revealed Him. [1, 2]

Like his Bible, the Antitheses was completely destroyed by his orthodox opponents, but we know exactly how it was laid out because early Church fathers quoted it extensively while trying to write refutations against it. [1, 2]
