The New Testament certainly has a fairly coherent set of messages, as I think any literary critic would agree, regardless of religious conviction or lack of it.Ok, now that I trolled ur attention...Is the bible true but the names, places and events have been changed to protect the guilty/innocent.
What I mean is that once all the veneer and the strange twisted arguments and reasoning are stripped away is there a universal coherent message in the bible?
The Old Testament is more diffuse. There seems to be a lot of tribal stuff about land and warfare mixed in with the theology. But that's to be expected in view of its far greater age.
