Galatians 3:13-14 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
I also believe that the following verse may imply that Islam is the great nation as it may look to Ishmael as an inheritance, in that although Muslims may differ with Christians on Trinity and many other issues, they still do not deny the basic ideas of the God of Israel and His prophets and Jesus as Messiah like other Gentiles and Jews in the world may do. In a way I see Islam and Christianity still like Ishmael and Isaac bickering under father Abraham and God, but they'll reconcile in the end.
Genesis 17:20 And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation.
