Why ‘I am a chosen’ phrase is wrong – Patrick Doyle

Veteran Nigerian actor, Patrick Doyle, has said that the “I am chosen” phrase commonly used by members of The Lord’s Chosen Charismatic Revival is “nonsensical”.

The actor was reacting to the skepticism surrounding testimonies from the church following its trend last week.

Arguing that it is not biblical, Doyle said, “The phrase ‘I am a chosen,’ as used by members of the religious sect called ‘Chosen,’ should never be connected to the Body of Christ.

“The members of this sect do not have Jesus in mind when they chant the phrase. Their adoration is unequivocally directed at a man, their GO, and the sect he founded. The phrase does not mention or even imply Jesus in any way.

“To infer that the nonsensical phrase is remotely connected to giving glory to the name or person of our Savior, Jesus Christ, is to make a mockery of our faith.

“Bloggers and content creators using the phrase are not mocking the Church of God but the sect in question and its founder.”
