What are the key themes of the Bible?

What is the message of the Bible

It’s difficult to condense the Bible’s main ideas or synopses into a single article without omitting many crucial points. However, I’ll try. I’ll list the [Bible’s] six main topics.

1. Creation

The universe, the earth, and our life are all the creations of God. He is so deserving of our adoration (Revelation 4:11). To find out the proper way to life, we ought to consult our Creator.

2. The fall

The world turned its back on God. Sin came into the earth. Since this affects every single human being, we are accountable to God for our sins. We cannot dwell in his Kingdom as long as we are not made right with him; we are apart from him.

3. God’s invitation and warning

Despite humanity’s disinterest in God, He yet sent his prophets to announce his intentions. According to Deuteronomy 10:12 and Leviticus 19:18, they commanded the people to love God with all of their hearts and to love others as themselves. They urged people to trust God and repent of their sins (see, for example, Ezekiel 14:6). They forewarned the populace that anyone who continued to reject God would face his judgment. However, they also pledged that God would send a Savior to make peace between people and God. In spite of the world’s rebellion against him, God demonstrated his love (Romans 5:8).

4. God’s salvation through Jesus Christ

Born of a virgin, God sent his one and only Son, Jesus Christ. Jesus demonstrated his power and love while teaching people about who God is. In order to grant everyone who believes in him forgiveness of sins and eternal life, he died on the cross for their sins (John 3:16).

5. The Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit was sent by Jesus as He ascended back to heaven. In order for individuals to accept Jesus as their Savior, the Holy Spirit convicts them of their sins (John 16:8–11). When someone accepts Christ, the Holy Spirit enters their life and guides them into all of God’s truth (John 16:13). He unites followers of Christ from every nation to build the one Church, the body of Christ.

6. God promises a new earth

Jesus is coming back. On “the last day,” this will occur (John 6:40). At that point, Jesus will judge everyone once they have all risen from the dead. The unbelieving people [will perish eternally]. Revelation 21:4 and Daniel 12:2 both state that those who believe in Jesus will [live eternally in God’s Kingdom] on the new earth, where there will be no more sickness, death, or tears.
