One central purpose of the Bible is to reveal what?

• A. To entertain readers
• B. To reveal God's plan of salvation to all people
• C. To compile laws only
• D. To record myths

Answer: (B)

The main idea tested here is that the Bible is about God’s rescue plan for humanity. Across its pages, Scripture shows how sin separates people from God and how God provides a way to be forgiven and restored—through Jesus. The Old Testament points forward to a Savior, and the New Testament reveals Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection as the means of salvation. This message is offered to people of every nation and background, not just to a specific group. While the Bible contains laws, history, and poetry, these are in service of the larger purpose: to reveal how God saves us. It isn’t primarily about entertainment, nor simply a collection of laws or myths; it centers on God’s plan of salvation available to all.
