He also denounced the link between the phrase and true Christian faith, describing it as mockery.

“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,” he wrote in part.“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," the actor added.

Doyle also defended bloggers and content creators using the phrase to taunt the Chosen church.

According to the actor, the mockery was directed at the founder, not God.
