clipped from: www.catholicnewsagency.com .- Around 300 people involved in ecumenical dialogue gathered on Friday evening at St. Joseph’s Catholic Church to hear Pope Benedict speak to them about their efforts at strengthening Christian unity. The Pope told the congregation that the world needs to see the witness of a united Christian community and that this can only be achieved by a Christianity founded on a non-relativistic faith, a faith based on the certain teachings of the apostles.
Following a reading from Paul’s letter to the Ephesians, the Pope said, “Paul's exhortation resounds with no less vigor today. His words instill in us the confidence that the Lord will never abandon us in our quest for unity. They also call us to live in a way that bears witness to the ‘one heart and mind’”.
Pointing to some Christian churches that change their beliefs by so-called ‘prophetic actions,’ he said that often their method of interpretation is inconsistent with Scripture and Tradition.
