I feel that the truth is important, so here is a thread from @stephanie_ruppe, daughter of John Wimber, addressing a widespread rumor (one that I heard from multiple "sources") that her dad "regretted" separating the Vineyard from the Toronto Blessing and the KC Prophets. 1/6

"I would like to weigh in on this conversation. There is absolutely NO TRUTH that my Dad regretted his decision on Toronto or removing the platform from the Kansas City prophets. That was a rumor that was started by another Teacher/Pastor and completely untrue" 2/6

"I know that it’s hard to know the truth, when people have not spent personal time with someone. But, I myself along with my Mom spent our lives with John Wimber. We know the truth. The KC “prophets” and other Teacher/Pastors said that my Dad was disobedient" 3/6

"when in fact, my Dad was OBEDIENT to what he believed God had called him to. And, it wasn’t that. My Dad was still resolute at the end of his life . Of course there was much good that happened.. but, now it is clear that so much destruction happened, also." 4/6

"A new book out about my Dad, John Wimber had the same claim. Stating that John Paul Jackson spoke to my Dad on his deathbed and my Dad told him that. Absolutely UNTRUE. My Dad battled this rumor until he died. They used my Dad for their own gain." 5/6

"And to answer the question of who left or got “ kicked out”… my Dad asked Toronto who their “ Pastor/Leader” was? … My Dad or another American Pentecostal leader. They did not choose my Dad as their Pastor/Leader, they chose the other man." 6/6
