Oh but it is. It's central theme is the plan of salvation. Do you disagree with that? I believe if you do, you have just dismissed Judaism and Christianity.

Funny, Judaism does not believe man needs to be redeemed. So, where is God's plan for slavation in the OT and if so, why don't the Jews believe it?
Perhaps you misunderstood me. The Bible is not a systematic theology book. It does not start with "Chapter One - Salvation", then, as a theology book, precisely defines it and gives examples and so forth. We receive our ideas on theology from the Holy Teachings given from the Apostles, which include the Scriptures, but are not limited to them. The letters of Paul, for example, were not written in the manner of a catechism. This has nothing to do with dismissing our Judeo-Christian heritage!
