The Pace of Ecumenical Progress

Chapter 17 of "All Roads Lead to Rome" by Michael De Semlyen.
Pope John Paul II was a devoted Mariologist, offering incense to 'Our Lady of Fatima' as shown on the cover of this book.
At the same time many "evangelical Christians" (to me those are not Christians at all) are being told by their leaders that catholicism is merely a denomination of the church of Jesus Christ and they need to come together with these other christians in true unity. Biblical truths for which past believers have laid down their lives in martyrdom are being compromised or completely eroded in the name of unity. Where is it all heading and why?
This book seeks to explain some of the backround to this push for unity above all else and urges the reader to contend for the faith and hold fast to a true biblical and Christ-centred gospel of salvation by faith alone. Just as Tyndale's prayer was "Lord, open the king of England's eyes", so the need today is for the Church to have its eyes open and to watch and pray.
