Kevin DeYoung shares an excerpt from Turning Around the Mainline: How Renewal Movements Are Changing the Church by Thomas Oden:
Four modern ecumenical arguments in particular misfire, as shown by David Mills. They even make Christian disunity more likely.

Each is a mistake “if-then” correlation… All these attempts are alike in one way: they put unity ahead of truth.
