Become Orthodox Christian. Sufism is just neoplatonism, unfiltered and cast in an Islamic mold. This will be more or less true for pretty much every world religion. There are indeed truths in the other religions and philosophies, but only because they, their adherents, and all of reality have their grounding in, whether they acknowledge it or not, the Divine Logos, the Person of Jesus Christ. Only Orthodoxy has a truly unique system of thought and way of being, which is revealed from on high, and not from the minds of man. But, it is rather what all the insights of man's mind has pointed to across time.

@Wajid Raza 1) Not sure what you mean about those from Jesus' bloodline accepting Islam. Jesus' bloodline was Jewish, and in general Jews did not accept Islam. But, even if I did, the Bible predicts that Jesus' own people would reject them, which they did, by and large, so why would we trust the people who rejected Jesus to guide us to the truth about Jesus? That is not sensible. 2) As for St. Paul, your own best tafsir list him as amongst the righteous followers and apostles of Jesus. Muslim hatred for St. Paul is a modern development. Historically, in Muslim countries, if you spoke of Paul the way you did, calling him satanic, you would've been charged with insulting the righteous followers of one of the prophets and would have been punished.
