Veteran actor and broadcaster, Patrick Doyle, has slammed the ‘I am a chosen’ chant used by members of The Lord’s Chosen Charismatic Revival Ministries.
The respected thespian described it as ‘nonsensical’ and unchristian-like in a Facebook post.
His condemnation of the chant comes just as a trending video which has the General Overseer of the Lord’s Chosen Ministry, Lazarus Maduka announcing that the popular overall of the church is going to be updated this week with the ‘I am chosen, who are you?’ inscription.
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.”
