In Mesopotamia around 2051 B.C. , there lived a humble, 99 year old farmer named Abraham.
One day, God came down from Heaven and proclaimed to Abraham that he will lead a great nation in the land of Canaan. After moving to Canaan, Abraham had two sons: Ishmael and Isaac.
From Isaac, the Jewish faith was born. A descendant of Isaac thousands of years later, died on a cross in Jerusalem. Jesus, the Son of God, was the one who died, and it is He through which the Christian faith was created.
Muhammad, a descendent of Isaac's older brother Ishmael, founded Islam thousands of years after the death of Ishmael.
Through Abraham, three of the world's largest religions were formed, although many religious sects have broken off from the original ideals of each religion,.
