Ecumenism, as put forth by Revelation, a.k.a: one world religion. Compromise over biblical things is never good.

I think you jumped the gun a bit. First of all, the article is talking about CHRISTIAN ecumenism, not "one world religion." Secondly, the article is explicitly critical of the "one world religion" type of ecumenism -- in other words, without compromising -- yet nevertheless striving toward Christian unity.

Biblically, we are commanded to strive toward unity as a Church, but of course without compromise.

Actually we’re not commanded to strive towards unity as a church. We are commanded to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ without dilution. We can’t get there on our own merits, Christ and Christ alone is the way.
