Abstract
We are realizing ever more sharply the scandal of the divisions in Christianity, ever more urgently the need to work towards reconciliation and unity. The Ecumenical Movement is gaining ground, finding its widest expression in the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity from the 18th to the 25th of January. Only Christ himself through his Spirit can perfect his movement towards peace, inspiring, accepting and making use of our penitence, humility, love and efforts to understand one another. But this is not the primary breach within the People of God: that between Jews and Gentiles is earlier and more fundamental still, a continuation into contemporary history of a separation that was necessary at one stage of the history of salvation. Here too Christ is, and is to be, the source of peace and reconciliation.
