Ecumenical work is a very popular concept nowadays. What does this mean? In the Religious world it means that all religions can be one in a way that they can accept one another as ways to God. The Pope who is the principal head of the Catholic Church speaks on ecumenism as the visible unity of all churches and that all religions lead to God.



The word ecumenism comes from the Greek word oikumene which means the inhabited earth or the world; during the time of the Roman Empire it meant all the subjects of the empire. However, Jesus Christ did not speak about ecumenism, but of unity between those believers who are born of the Spirit of God.

Only Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ leads to God the Father.

Only through the shed Blood of Jesus do we have forgiveness of sins.
Jesus Christ is THE WAY not A way to the Father. He is the Only way.
The Bible speaks clearly on this.

John 6:67-68 (KJV)67 Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away? 68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.

Acts 4:12 (KJV) Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.


Jesus Bless You.
