Overview
Ecumenism is the principle of promoting unity and cooperation among different Christian denominations and theological traditions. It aims to develop closer relationships among churches and encourage greater cooperation and union among Christians. The movement is based on the shared faith in Jesus, the inspiration of the Bible, and the reception of baptism according to the Trinitarian formula. Ecumenists cite John 17:20–23 as the biblical grounds for striving for church unity, where Jesus prays 'may all be one'.
