The Bible works where it encourages its followers to love and good works.
The Bible fails where it encourages hate, intolerance and fear. And yes, it most definitely encourages hate, intolerance and fear.
Where it describes a theological system, it is neutral. One's theological system doesn't matter so much except as it encourages happiness here on earth. Christians spend so much time arguing amongst themselves about the particulars of their theological system when really it doesn't matter one whit.
The Bible works where it teaches how to find happiness here on earth, and fails where it teaches otherwise.
