Here’s an interesting piece at First Things from Roman Catholic priest Avery Cardinal Dulles who notes:

Without concealing or minimizing the specific claims of the Catholic Church, the Second Vatican Council found ways of showing how that Church could and should pursue ecumenism…

Catholics would want to hear from the churches of the Reformation the reasons they have for speaking as they do of Christ alone, Scripture alone, grace alone, and faith alone, while Catholics tend to speak of Christ and the Church, Scripture and tradition, grace and cooperation, faith and works…

We would not want any of these distinctive endowments of other ecclesial families to be muted or shunted aside for the sake of having shared premises or an agreed method. Conversely, Catholics would not hesitate to go into the dialogue with the full panoply of beliefs, sustained by our own methods of certifying the truth of revelation. We are not ashamed of our reliance on tradition, the liturgy, the sense of the faithful, and our confidence in the judgment of the Magisterium. (Online source, emphasis mine)

The above highlight is precisely why the ecumenical movement is doomed to attract only professing Christian compromisers and why I was led by the Lord to write The Deceivers. Apprising Ministries reminds genuine Christians that there can be no reconciliation with apostate Roman Catholicism until the Roman Catholic Church publicly renounces the false gospel of her unbiblical sacramental system and abolishes her papacy.
