“O termo ecumenismo veio a representar a união das igrejas de Cristo que vai além das suas diferenças religiosas. Em termos globais é a fusão de todas as crenças”.(Net) Segundo a Wold Chistian Ecyclopedia, há cerca de 10 mil religiões no mundo inteiro”. Visto que os conflitos entre elas têm provocado muito sofrimento, o conceito de ecumenismo traz esperança a muitas pessoas religiosas. Elas acreditam que o ecumenismo pode trazer a paz e a união a um mundo dividido. O que a Bíblia diz sobre isso? Os primeiros cristãos viviam numa sociedade multicultural e multirreligiosa, mas sobre misturar religiões, o apóstolo Paulo perguntou: “Que quinhão tem o fiel com o incrédulo?” Depois avisou os cristãos para ‘sair do meio deles’. (2Cor.6:15, 17) Paulo sabia que ficar separado de outras religiões protegeria os cristãos contra suas práticas prejudiciais. Assim ele estava imitando a Jesus, que é o maior exemplo em promover paz entre as pessoas, mas ele não praticava o ecumenismo. Muitos grupos religiosos, como os fariseus e os saduceus, estavam ativos durante o ministério de Jesus, e eles não concordavam sobre os temas mais importantes das Escrituras. Jesus, por sua vez, orientou seus seguidores a se vigiar do ensino deles (Mat.16:12) Assim, como óleo e água não se misturam, não dá para juntar crenças religiosas diferentes por meio do ecumenismo. Ex: quando pessoas de religiões diferentes se juntam para orar pela paz, a que deus estão orando? Ao da Trindade? A Brahma do hinduísmo? A Buda? A Maomé? Ou a outras milhares de deidades “que existem”? Não há lógica nisso!! Já o apóstolo Pedro exortou seus irmãos na fé: “Sede todos da mesma mentalidade”. (1Pe. 3:8) Agora: todas as crenças têm a mesma forma de pensar? Não!! A Bíblia atesta: “Eu é que sou Jeová, e além de mim não há salvador.” (Isaías 43:10, 11) A união em escala mundial pela paz que a Bíblia aprova não é por ajuntar todas as fés(crenças) diferentes, mas sim todas as pessoas na mesma fé! (Miq. 4: 1-4)

The Bible: Ecumenis.
"The term ecumenism has come to represent the union of churches of Christ that goes beyond religious differences. Overall it is a merger of all faiths. "(Net) According to Wold Ecyclopedia Chistian, about 10 thousand religions in the world." Since the conflict between them has caused much suffering, the concept of ecumenism brings hope to many religious people. They believe that ecumenism can bring peace and unity to a divided world. What does the Bible say about this? The early Christians lived in a multicultural and multi-religious society, but about mixing religions, the apostle Paul asked, "What portion does a believer with an unbeliever?" Then he warned the Christians to 'come out from them. " (2Cor.6: 15, 17) Paul knew that being separated from other religions would protect the Christians against their harmful practices. So he was imitating Jesus, who is the greatest example in promoting peace between the people but he did not practice ecumenism. Many religious groups, like the Pharisees and the Sadducees, were active during the ministry of Jesus, and they disagreed about the most important themes of Scripture. Jesus, in turn, instructed his followers to watch their teaching (Mat.16:12) Thus, like oil and water do not mix, you can not add different religious beliefs through ecumenism. Ie when people of different faiths come together to pray for peace, are praying that god? When the Trinity? The Brahma of Hinduism? The Buddha? The Mohammed? Or the other thousands of deities "that exist"? There is no logic to it! Already the Apostle Peter urged his fellow believers: "All the same mindset." (1 Pet 3:8) Now, all faiths have the same mindset? No! The Bible states: "It is I who am the Lord, and besides me there is no savior." (Isaiah 43:10, 11) The union in world peace that the Bible is not approved by raking all faiths (beliefs) different but everyone in the same faith! (Micah 4: 1-4)
