40,000 denominations. One book. Countless interpretations. If the Bible’s purpose was unity, why has it bred so much division? The answer might not lie in the text you’ve read but in the intention you’ve missed.
Keep reading to discover the one principle that could turn the Bible from a source of division into humanity’s ultimate guide to unity.

When I began studying Bible interpretation, I was stunned to realize that 99.99% of what I had been taught in pastoral school was not true. This revelation unveiled a deeper issue: the widespread spiritual ignorance perpetuated by the religious church system. Properly interpreted, the Bible offers a profound method to transform humanity—from ego-driven intentions to those rooted in love and bestowal. It transcends religion, showing a path for humanity to unite as one, with one heart. True love and bestowal cannot be faked, as they stem from genuine intention, not outward actions. Yet, in stark contrast to this unifying potential, the existence of over 40,000 denominations within the church system reflects a fragmentation that divides us, rather than bringing us together.

The process of becoming proficient in interpreting the Bible is demanding, requiring atleast 20 years of studying under a teacher who has been trained by 3 generations of teachers.
In contrast, mental assent bible preachers, teachers and general overseers tend to follow the short cuts: orthodox priests often spend around seven years in seminary, while Pentecostal pastors opt for shorter programs, such as six-month Bible schools. The perpetuation of ignorance among mental assent bible preachers, teachers and general overseers is why there is no significant spiritual transformation in the world

The bible is not exclusive to the religious church system, it is given to humanity as a method of correction of the human desire from egoistic intention to the intention of love and bestowal – We only need to interpret and present the bible correctly.
The current religious church system, as we know it, is the body of men, not the "body of Christ."

A Question Worth Unpacking

What if the Bible, a book that has been a source of both unity and division for millennia, held the secret to transcending religion itself? Imagine a world where its teachings were not shackled by denominational biases but instead served as a guide for humanity to achieve unprecedented unity. This might sound audacious, but what if the answer lies not in the letter of the text but in its intention—an intention of love and bestowal?

The Puzzle of Division: A Reality Check

Today, over 40,000 Christian denominations stand testament to humanity’s struggle with interpretation. Each claims to hold the truth, yet this multiplicity of doctrines only underscores one glaring fact: division reigns supreme. Ironically, the Bible, a book revered for its teachings of love and compassion, has been wielded as a tool for sectarianism.

Let’s take a step back. What if we’ve been asking the wrong questions all along? Instead of debating who is right, should we not ponder whether we’ve misunderstood the purpose of the text itself? Here lies our first breadcrumb: The Bible’s true purpose might not be to divide humanity into camps but to unite it under a single intention.

A Radical Lens: From Egoism to Bestowal

At its core, the Bible’s narrative revolves around the transformation of human desire. In its unrefined state, human desire is egoistic, driven by self-interest. The Bible’s wisdom—when interpreted correctly—provides a method to shift this egoistic intention to one of love and bestowal.

Consider this: While the actions of Love and bestowal can be faked and might be deceiving, intention cannot be faked; it remains the heart’s true mirror. This principle cuts through pretenses and strikes at the root of what divides us. If humanity could collectively adopt this shift in intention, religious differences would lose their sting. Instead of competing doctrines, we’d have a shared purpose—to uplift one another.

A Real-Life Parallel: The Social Experiment

To grasp the power of intention, let’s explore a real-world example. A group of volunteers was asked to engage in acts of kindness—sharing food, assisting strangers, or offering emotional support. Half the group was instructed to perform these acts with genuine care, while the other half acted out of obligation.

The result? Recipients consistently reported feeling more uplifted and connected when the act was accompanied by authentic intention. It wasn’t the act itself but the intangible intention behind it that made all the difference. Imagine applying this principle on a global scale—what would humanity look like if we approached each other with unwavering intention of love and bestowal?

What’s Holding Us Back?

If the Bible’s true message is so clear and potent, why has it remained obscured? Here’s where the plot thickens: Every religion, to some degree, thrived on division. Systems of belief often reinforce an “us vs. them” narrative, as it solidifies group identity and ensures institutional survival. Unity, while noble, poses a threat to structures that rely on differentiation.

Path Forward

But here’s the silver lining: The Bible’s teachings, when stripped of dogma, offer a universal method for healing these divides. Consider the concept of “one man with one heart,” a metaphor that transcends religious boundaries. This ideal, deeply embedded in biblical wisdom, urges us to view humanity as a single entity—diverse yet interconnected.

To achieve this, we must embrace a paradigm shift. Religious labels, while culturally popular, are secondary to the intention behind our actions. The Bible’s message on the intention of  love and bestowal challenges us to prioritize unity over uniformity. It’s not about erasing differences but harmonizing them under a shared purpose.

Transforming Theory into Practice

The journey toward unity begins with individual intention. Each of us holds the power to adopt the intention of love and bestowal as guiding principles. Here’s how:

Seek A Bible Interpretation Scholar to teach you how to interpret the bible correctly.

Self-Reflection: Regularly examine your intentions. Are they driven by ego or a genuine desire to uplift others?

Authentic Connection: Engage with others beyond surface-level interactions. Seek to understand and empathize.

Collective Effort: Advocate for humanity dialogues that focus on shared values of the intention of love and bestowal rather than doctrinal differences.

Daily Practice: Incorporate attaining the intention to bestow into your routine, ensuring they stem from a place of authenticity.

The Unity Within Reach

The Bible, when properly interpreted, transcends religion and serves as humanity’s compass toward unity. By embracing its method of transforming egoistic desire into the intention of love and bestowal, we can dismantle the barriers that divide us. The task is monumental, but the reward is immeasurable—a world where humanity exists as one man with one heart.

So, the question remains: Are we ready to uncover the Bible’s true purpose and, in doing so, embrace the unity it promises? The answer lies not in theology but in intention—yours and mine.

We’ve misread the Bible for centuries, letting ego obscure its true purpose. But imagine if, together, we could finally unlock its method of unity and live as one. It’s no longer a matter of interpretation but intention.
Challenge yourself: What intention will you carry forward today? Start small but think big. Comment and share with family and friends.

Salvation is only possible when the bible is correctly interpreted and applied. When the Bible Interpretation is incorrect, the application will be wrong.
Centuries of wrong bible interpretation is the reason we now have 40,000 church denominations; in other words, we have 40,000 different doctrines despite there is only one bible.

What's the practical benefit we can point to if we get the correct interpretation of the Bible?

True salvation. Not the emmottional one like we currently have. When humanity begin to get the correct Bible Interpretation, there will be unity of the Spirit not the division we currently have in the religious church system (40,000 denominations. 40,000 different doctrines despite we have only one bible).
The essence of Bible interpretation is not the formation of more dogmatic traditions but the restoration of the singular truth embedded in Scripture as it is written in Ephesians 4:4-6: "There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called; one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all."

Ok what will happen to people who don't want to subject to God's will?

Will God force them to become part of this global family of oneness simply because they are calling Jesus in their worship?

The truth eternally prevails over emotions.
Our freewill is limited to two choices. Either you follow the path of intention of love and bestowal or the path of egoistic intention (also called the path of suffering).
The purpose of the path of suffering is like an indicator to let humanity know that it is on the wrong path.
However, everyone is giving the freewill to choose.

Well according to God's word destruction awaits anyone who is not a part of the global family of peace that's why Jesus said he will order them to be killed! Luke 19:27

We have one Christian organization now all others are under the influence of Satan the sign Jesus said will help you to recognize us is LOVE that permeates our organization! John 13:34-35
