Founder and presiding Bishop of Living Faith Church Worldwide, a.k.a Winners’ Chapel International, David Oyedepo, says the commission should not name any church after him after he might have died at very old age.
According to him, the church belongs to Jesus, not him.
“After I go at a very ripe old age which I know God has the plan for me, let no man here name anything here after me because the owner never dies”, Oyedepo said in a sermon published today by Church Gist.
He explained that breakaway churches don’t thrive.

“Don’t try it, it’s not God’s will it’s not God’s plan.
“People die before they share their will in any term but this man never dies. So who will now give you the will to read?
“Lawyers, do you read the will when the man is still alive.

“You can’t divide anybody goods till after his death and Jesus the owner of the church ever liveth. So where will you divide his lit, that time won’t come”.
Oyedepo said he once received a request from a resigning pastor to gift him a church branch.
He said he declined the request
According to him, he would have lost the Winners Chapel ministry forever if he had obliged the pastor’s request because the church doesn’t belong to him.
“One of our pastors resigned in those days and I said if there’s anything in getting started in your ministry, he said I want you to give me the church that I’m a pastor. I said it’s not my own.
“You have no power to give what is not yours. I can’t give you the church, it’s not my own.
“I told him to ask for any other thing, I’m not a church giver. I would have lost this ministry forever,” he said.
