This worked for me, but I’m not sure if it will affect other pages with posts (I don’t use any posts on my site).

Go to Dashboard > Appearance > Editor
Choose “front-page.php” on the right side
Delete the following code near the bottom of the file:

<div class="container">
		<div class="row">
			<div id="primary" <?php bavotasan_primary_attr(); ?>>
                <?php
				if ( have_posts() ) {
					while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
						get_template_part( 'content', get_post_format() );
					endwhile;

					bavotasan_pagination();
				} else {
					if ( current_user_can( 'edit_posts' ) ) {
						// Show a different message to a logged-in user who can add posts.
						?>
						<article id="post-0" class="post no-results not-found">
							<h1 class="entry-title"><?php _e( 'Nothing Found', 'arcade' ); ?></h1>

							<div class="entry-content description clearfix">
								<p><?php printf( __( 'Ready to publish your first post? <a href="%s">Get started here</a>.', 'arcade' ), admin_url( 'post-new.php' ) ); ?></p>
							</div><!-- .entry-content -->
						</article>
						<?php
					} else {
						get_template_part( 'content', 'none' );
					} // end current_user_can() check
				}
				?>
			</div><!-- #primary.c8 -->
			<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
		</div>
	</div>

Hope that works!
