Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Former Vice President of Living Faith Church, Bishop Thomas Aremu has declared that despite his retirement, he would remain a member of the church.<\/p>\n

This is coming amid speculations that the two former vice presidents, Aremu and David Abioye whose retirements were recently approved by the founder of the church, Bishop David Oyedepo may dump Living Faith for their own ministries.<\/p>\n

Clearing the air, Bishop Aremu, who spoke on Tuesday during his valedictory service at the Winners Chapel, Orita Bashorun, Oyo State on Tuesday, said he does not intend to have a church.<\/p>\n

He, however, said he may be teaching in other churches, but stressed that his teachings will always be in line with Living Faith doctrines.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cI do not have a church and I cannot have a church because God has not infused me with the capacity to do so. This is my church.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven after retirement, I shall remain in the Winners family. I may be privileged to bless other churches that are not winners but there is nothing I\u2019m going to teach them than what I have learned in Winners\u201d.<\/p>\n
