The bible contains an overwhelming number of statements... but it also asks questions. It is not in the 'teaching' of the bible that it creates believers: it is in the learning of the individual indoctrinated within an institution or coming to (or away from) faith on their own terms.
There are over 40,000 sects of documented religious thought. Plenty of these come from the Torah, and plenty more from the 'New Testament'. Clearly, the bible does not but one thing teach.

Marketing and consumerism have certainly improved our holidays.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
