What is the central theme of the entire Bible in one word (if possible)?

OBEY!

Except that it’s all nonsense, including “hell,” which was never once mentioned by the biblical god or his prophets in bible passages covering 4,000 years from Adam and Eve to the last prophets.

“Whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.” (Matthew 5:28)

Making love is evil, unless sanctioned by marriage. Of course the vast majority of christians have sex outside marriage.

Sexual desire (“lust”) is evil, and to desire someone is the same as committing adultery:

Homosexuality is an “abomination” to god. Oddly, this is the only abomination most christians worry about, for other people. What about the abominations above? What about christians conquering lust themselves? If homosexuals go to hell for not conquering their desires, then obviously christians will go to hell for not conquering theirs.

Why is my ex mad I moved on when he dumped me?

From beginning to end, the bible is all about using fear of nonexistent beings — monsters under the bed, monsters in the closet — to control the minds and behavior of people gullible enough to believe evil nonsense.

What happens if one doesn’t OBEY! the dictates of the creators of such nonsense?

Why would Joseph Smith say that polygamy was God's law?

In the New Testament, you will go to an infinitely cruel, purposeless “hell” for thinking independently.

Women wearing men’s clothes is an “abomination” to god. Of course the vast majority of christian women have worn pants.

The central theme of the bible, in a single word, is:

Do you think all these charges that have been brought against Trump are just a coincidence? If he was such a big threat why did they wait 3 years to bring these charges? Or is this all just election interference?

In the Old Testament you could be stoned to death, for thinking independently.

And thus coupled with OBEY! is the parallel dictate “Never, ever, think for yourself!”

Human beings eating bacon, pork and shellfish is an “abomination” to god. Of course the vast majority of christians eat such “abominations” while claiming to “love” god, who they claim is the same “yesterday, today and forever” and thus still abominates such foods. How can people who “love” god do something he loathes? Is their love a “sham” because they love bacon more than god?

How long can someone with narcissistic tendencies maintain a facade of fake love before their true self is revealed? Is there a specific trigger or amount of time that causes them to reveal their true nature?

The bible proposes nonsense as “the wisdom of god”:

Everyone “lusts” and no one repents of lust, as in not immediately lusting again. The apostle Paul said all adulterers go to hell, so all christians are going to hell!
