Over the years, whenever the subject of Ishmael comes up, I have heard many sermons that trace the lineage of Ishmael to Arabs and particularly to Muslims. However, for the first time I can remember someone has challenged that notion, saying Hagar and Ishmael worshipped the true God, not some other god. I did a quick search and that search seems to confirm what I was always told. However, I thought I would check with the Highway to see if I could find any more information, before i dismiss the topic. Any information would be appreciated.

They were sent away so they did not belong to the lineage of Abraham and Isaac. John Chaney "having been firmly rooted and now being built up in Him and established in your faith . . ."
