The Travelling Salesman Problem and the Truth

In Mathematics, there is a classic conundrum called "The Travelling Salesman Problem (TSP)" :

"Given the positions of N cities, what is the shortest
closed tour in which each city can be visited once? "

Many cities mean exponential combinations exist to traverse those cities. But there is only one route, only one solution to the problem. This mathematical conundrum has been used in a lot of real world applications, specially in computer science. But let us try it on a book that is prominent in the bookshelves of mankind - the Bible. If we treat each verse of the Bible as different cities, imagine the exponential amount of permutations that would result from man's attempt to "interpret" these verses and weave them into one wholistic picture to find the great "theological" solution. This sheds some light on the phenomenon of how and why religion, denominations, and cults arise. Those that deviate from discovering the one true "solution" are just seeing "mutations" of the truth even if they profess that they base their dogma or belief on Bible verses. Although they contain subsets of the truth, their overall profile does not manifest the genuine truth, and their integrity to represent or lead men to the truth is questionable. This makes them even more lethal, akin to a malevolent social virus or meme - snagging minds and spirits away through deception. As expressed by Henry Ford, "An error is the more dangerous the more truth it contains." Any idea, doctrine or interpretation that fails to start from a core truth is an error, growing deadlier each time it patches itself with fragments of sub-truths which then creates a half-truth memeplex.
What many fail to see is that there is only one truth that can be seen from all the contents of the Bible. In the same way that there is only one true optimized solution for the "Travelling Salesman Problem".

Let me introduce the solution by mentioning the work of a Korean artist who meticulousy wrote each letter of the Bible's New Testament using a fine tipped pen onto a large canvas. He adjusted the size and shade of some letters according to a pattern. The resulting overall picture was an image of Jesus Christ, illustrating that "The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us". (Jn 1:14)

Following up on how artists have caught glimpses of the grand designer's pattern, the remarkable artist named Vincent Van Gogh remarked, "It is a very good thing that you read the Bible...The Bible is Christ, for the Old Testament leads up to this culminating point. ...Christ alone...has affirmed as a principal certainty, eternal life, the infinity of time, the nothingness of death, the necessity and the raison d'être of serenity and devotion. He lived serenely, as a greater artist than all other artists, despising marble and clay as well as color, working in living flesh. That is to say, this matchless artist...made neither statues nor pictures nor books; he loudly proclaimed that he made...living men, immortals."

"I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
       John 14:6

Jesus is the one path that weaves all of the verses into one unified whole. Consistent, optimized, solid and undeniably true. Algorithms and heuristics are used to find "the way" for The TSP. Religion and/or science is society's algorithm to find the truth. The paradigm shift in this case is that Jesus Himself is the Truth and the Way all in one person.
Jesus can never truly be known through a legalistic system, or dogma alone. Rather, just like how one gets to know a person more and more, it is through a growing personal relationship that one can truly know the Christ.
