You need the DNA of the father Abraham, in other words, his faith

The one who is Abraham's son is also the son of the promise, and the promise is that God puts you a head and not the tail, you'll be on top and not underneath. Serving God, He fulfills His promises to those who are the true children of Abraham, not due to conjecture, but due to genetics of Abraham. Abraham's son has the same blood. In order to be a son of Abraham, you must count the elements that exist in the father, as in any DNA test. And what is the predominant factor in Abraham`s life? It's nothing physical, but it is faith. Abraham`s son has no physical aspect of his history, but his faith, which is justified by the blood of the Lamb. The son carries traces of the father`s appearance and the mother`s. The outstanding feature of Abraham is his faith. A son of Abraham must be faithful. Son of Abraham is born in faith, regardless ethnicity, surname, or appearance. You will not be, however, a son of Abraham, giving up on fighting, discrediting, throwing the towel. God sends His deliverance, but you must believe, receive the Word and react.

"But is it possible to become Abraham`s son?" Yes. Zach became a son of Abraham. Religions follow patterns and precepts, of which it's not for me to discuss them or enter in the merit of each, but I disagree with some things, that it is up to each one, as the Apostle Paul says, we will face what's coming next. I don't own the truth and I don't care to discuss theology. We need to discuss what matters and not details.

In order to become an adept in many religions, there are rites that are required; it could be a haircut, read a passage, among other ways. What makes a person to become a son of Abraham is attitude of faith. When Zach decided to give the poor ones half of his shares and repay what defrauded four times as much on his own initiative, Jesus declared that he was now the son of Abraham. The spiritual son isn't born he makes himself. Everyone might be born, but if you do, only the true son does. As Zacchaeus was made and each one of us can make us children of Abraham, glorify the God and express your faith. John 1:12 says all about receiving Christ, God gave them the power to be made sons of God, namely, those who believe in His name. Children of Abraham can go through whatever it is and faith keeps them alive. King's children are kings and not lose majesty. Son of Abraham never gives up and no one drops a son of Abraham, those ones always turn over the situation. If it's in your blood, take a position and keep the same faith as your father, firmly on the promises of God.
