Actor Chris Pratt has spoken about the importance of depending on Jesus Christ when addressing his haters.
On Monday, Pratt, 43, spoke with Page Six exclusively at a screening of his upcoming Marvel movie āGuardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3ā³ and got candid about the criticism he has received for being bold about his Faith.
āI sure do but thatās nothing new, thatās nothing new, you know?ā Pratt said.
He also referenced scripture as his defense.
āIf I was of this world, they would love me just like that but as it is, Iāve chosen out of this world. Thatās John 15:18 through 20,ā he added.
Pratt used Jesus Christ as an example.
āThatās the way it is, nothing new, 2,000 years ago they hated him, too,ā the āJurassic Worldā star shared.
In June 2022, Pratt spoke with Menās Health about the backlash he received for attending Hillsong Church, which has been deemed as āinfamously anti-LGBTQ.ā
āNothing could be further from the truth. I go to a Church that opens their doors to absolutely everyone,ā Pratt previously wrote on his Instagram story, according to People.
He continued, āMy Faith is important to me but no Church defines me or my life, and I am not a spokesman for any Church or any group of people. My values define who I am. We need less hate in this world, not more.ā
Pratt added that he was āa man who believes that everyone is entitled to love who they want free from the judgment of their fellow man.ā
