Since Bahai is not a christian belief
Bahai Faith is a Christian belief, in a sense that Bahaullah proclaimed He is the second coming of Messiah. Bahais believe that in the same way, when Jesus, appeared as the first coming of Messiah, and the Jews did not recognize Him, likewise when He came the second time, now Christians also did not recognize Him.
and you are talking about christian faith,
No, we were not talking about Christian Faith. Remember, we were talking about Issac and Ishmael. This belief was not in the Christian faith. It was in Jewish Bible.
.
I rather side with what christians and the bible say first.
.
To me it is not so much about taking sides. It is about investigation of truth. The moment we take sides, it means we are biased. Bahaullah says, 'bias', is one of the reasons of blindness. It is in Iqan, where Bahaullah talks about the True seeker....
.
I can't see Bahaullah talking for biblical authors and the body of christ. That's very inappropriate.
.
I see it differently. Only Bahaullah (the return of Christ) has the right to talk about it, and explain it.
.
That, and the tablet has a lot of information (just looked it up).
.
Yes, it does. I think 'if' you want to talk about Bahaullah's explanation regarding Ishmael and Issac, you need to read it.
.
Do you honestly expect me to change my mind to Bahaullah view of christianity rather than christianity's view of their own faith?
.
Honestly, your personal acceptance or rejection of Bahaullah, has no effect on me.

Investigator. That's like telling me what's in a house of another house owner by offering different layout plans than the one he, the owner, used and drew up to which his house was created from. If you two share the same contractor, I'd assume either you have the same floor plans (so no contradiction on where the rooms are for example) or your floor plans are false since you weren't the one that designed the house.
I have a different view. What made Jesus, 'the Christ', was not His physical body, name, place of Birth. It was 'the Spirit of God', who had manifested in Him. As the Spirit of God is invisible, we cannot see with literal eyes how the same Spirit is Manifested in Bahaullah, and we can be veiled. To recognize the Spirit of God, we need to be able to see, with the eye of Spirit. Being biased, cause our spiritual eye to become blind, and not recognize Him. Like Jesus said, He comes down with the cloud. As Bahaullah explained He meant, to give an analogy, just as the cloud prevent the Sun to be recognized, the wayward imaginations, fanaticism, and 'Bias', becomes like clouds on our spiritual sight, thus preventing us from Recognition of Christ.
