When Ecumenical Becomes a Dangerous Term Ecumenical becomes a dangerous term when it is combined with movement and applied to churches and Christians. Webster defines ecumenical movement as a planned bringing together of all Christians into visible unity; most ecumenical organizations define the ecumenical movement as a means to show the world all Christians are in unity. The claim is made that this is to answer Jesus prayer in John 17:22. While Webster does not have be concerned about the definition of Christian and unity, we do! The fact is that the current ecumenical movement always brings together some who are true to the doctrines of the Word of God with some who are not. There is no Christian unity where there is not unity in the faith once for all delivered to the saints (Jude 3).
