Heresy of Ecumenism

ENI—A group of Orthodox clergy in Greece led by three senior archbishops have published a manifesto pledging to resist all ecumenical ties with Roman Catholics and Protestants. “The only way our communion with heretics can be restored is if they renounce their fallacy and repent,” the group said in their Confession of Faith Against Ecumenism.

“The Orthodox church is not merely the true church; she is the only church,” states the document. It further declares that Protestantism “inherited many heresies but also added many more” by rejecting tradition, the veneration of saints, monasticism and sacraments, and tolerating women priests and homosexual marriages.
