Guess who they forgot to invite to the festivities? Answer – Jesus Christ, His Name appears nowhere and is never mentioned. I wonder who the ‘honored guest” is then? Hmm.

Hmm I wonder what dinner is really happening?

But fraternity of believers is a much better term than brotherhood which seems to exclude females. Good news ...

The Protestants of the United States will be foremost in stretching their hands across the gulf to grasp the hand of spiritualism; they will reach over the abyss to clasp hands with the Roman power; and under the influence of this threefold union, this country will follow in the steps of Rome in trampling on the rights of conscience.--GC 588 (1911).

Yes it has started

I looked up the term, it was invented by GK Chesterson. The site in the OP itself is kind of conspiracy theory like. I couldn't find other references to it or confirmation that this is what it is being self identified as.

So I assume Chrislam is being used as a derogatory term in this context?

It seems like the Vatican is leading in the eucmenism movement to include other religions, as well as consolidation of the denominations within Christianity.

I think that site, my initial opinion, believes in a coming one world religion as a makeup of the religions of the world, under the beast. Rather than the eradication of all current religions to be replaced by the worship of the beast and his dogma/doctrine.

What is that 1911 writ that states Protestants will lead. That seems entirely off from what is actually happening with the Catholics joining with Muslems. I think we saw this coming from a few years ago now. But it is now only according to RCC or what?

I just don't believe the pope speaks for Christianity. Sorry if that offends anyone but ..

The pope has influence, but for those of us who are not Catholics do not regard him as the spokesman for Christianity as a whole.

I think just about everything in the article is fantasy. First of all, this is not being led by pope Francis. I also don't see anyone using the term "ecuminism" besides the link in the OP, just like nobody has used the word Chrislam. o_O

...Looks like a lot of baloney to me.

Well, the pope is in the photo-opt, yes ?

That link says...."the Human Fraternity document created by Pope Francis of the Vatican"

Are you saying that statement is not true? I am asking, I don't know.

Yes, a fraternity of peace and non-violence.. But I don't see the word "ecuminism" being used, since the conference included Jews, Christians and Muslims.

Ecuminism is a term reserved for Christian's only.

So that's why I think the article is making things up. It's all fantasy.

From what I can tell, the site in question (apart from being conspiratorial and incidentally also thinks the King James Version is the only English bible anyone should use) has a history of making grand proclamations about how important something is going to be for the end times, only to then move onto other things when it doesn't pan out. Or so is argued here:
We Are In an End-Times Lull, so Geoffrey Grider Casually Switches Web Content
Now The End Begins Geoffrey Grider Has Gone All In

The "GC" from 1911 they're quoting from is The Great Controversy by Ellen G. White, one of the founders of Seventh-Day Adventism.

For me reading the word of God.. if I was standing with them not against.. GOD sees me with them and I take part in that sin. Its not of God and no believer in Jesus Christ should be part of this. This has been known for so many years now.

As God told me once when I asked how can you send all these people to hell? He came back with "for God so loved the world. Everyone gets a choice". Some are trying to climb over...you will never get in. Forgive me if I offended.. never meant to
