I'm pretty sure he was, his prayer says: (John 17:20) "My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, 21that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us SO THAT THE WORLD WILL KNOW THAT YOU SENT ME."
Imagine, you're right. That prayer hasn't been answered yet. But here's to hoping it will. Here's to hoping that people will pray with their lips and help with their hands. God loves you.
Have you read Revelation (it talks about it throughout the New Testament). But Revelation goes into more detail about a new Heaven and a new Earth. I think Pete Greig puts it beautifully - it is the longing of the Earth, groaning of the Spirit, the very dream of God. If there was not suppose to be this oneness we could not be able to experience God now, there would of been no Eden and what would be the reason for the second coming of Christ?
I know there are many reasons, but actually coming back to Earth... I think God will change the Earth drastically with his love, and once again like in Eden, man will be able to have 'oneness' with God, it was the reason for creation!
I don't pray for the sick to be healed, I pray for the strength to help the sick. We are his hands and we are his feet.

"I don't pray for the sick to be healed, I pray for the strength to help the sick. We are his hands and we are his feet."
That makes you a rare and wonderful believer.
Very few do that.

I dont think the "oneness" he was referring to was ever supposed to happen on Earth.
