Patrick Doyle has generated controversy on social media after claiming that the widely used Christian slogan, “What God cannot do doesn’t exist” has been proven to be “silly”.
In a recent post on his Instagram page, the veteran Nollywood actor frowned at those still chanting the slogan for not accepting their “folly”.
He also opposed the saying “Heaven helps those who help themselves”, explaining that the slogan introduced the false doctrine of “works of men” to replace that of the finished work of God.
Doyle wrote; “Some people are just too obstinate to admit their folly. Even after that slogan ‘What God cannot do doesn’t exist’ has been proven to be silly, they still continue to chant it.”
He added; “The work of bringing things into existence was completed by God on the 7th day of creation. To speculate that some things “don’t exist” and couch that irrational possibility in a slogan is insulting . Slogans, no matter how woke they sound, have the power of attrition to blunt the efficacy of profound scriptures.
A good example is the slogan “Heaven helps those who help themselves.” This slogan overtime has become part of “Christian Lexicon” and has insidiously introduced the false doctrine of “works of men” to supplant the profundity of the doctrine of the “Finished Work Of Christ.” Here is a word of caution to christian slogan copy writers, ” If It Breeds Doubt, Do Without”.
The actor’s assertion did not sit down well with many, especially Christians who thronged to the comment section with counter him with arguments.
