Metamorphosis

The first commandment
The LORD God commanded the man, saying, "From any tree of the garden you may eat freely; but from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat from it you will surely die." (Genesis 2:16-17 NASB)

The first prophecy
And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. (Genesis 3:15 KJV)

The two basic message of the Bible was completed by the third chapter of Genesis:
  1. Belief leads to life; unbelief leads to death.
  2. God will defeat satan by the seed of the woman.
The rest of the Bible basically reveal more details on these two messages.

Life and death, belief and unbelief
God promised life to those who believe Him. There is only one way to life. If we reject truth and life, we get lies and death.

Salvation
God revealed the method of salvation - by redemption.
