Pope Leo XIV Urges Christian Unity Amid Middle East Conflict

Pope Leo XIV called for urgent ecumenical unity between Catholic and Coptic Orthodox Christians, citing global conflicts and Middle East turmoil as reasons Christians must witness together to the 'Prince of Peace.' This push for visible church unity under Rome's leadership mirrors end-times warnings about a coming one-world religion that consolidates Christianity under a singular ecclesiastical authority. Scripture warns of a great falling away and a false religious system in the last days, as the drive for 'full communion' accelerates across historically divided Christian bodies.
