3 JOHN
3 John 1-4
I, the Elder, write to you, Gaius, whom I truly love. I ask God that you will do well in all respects. I am happy because of the way you conduct your lives.
Continue receiving the visiting fellow believers, asyouhavebeen doing.
Especially provideforthem financially.
Because Diotrephes doesnot recognize my authority, Iwill publicly expose whathedoesin opposing us.
Donot imitate abad example; imitate good ones.
Youwilldo well to receive Demetrius, whois highly recommended.
Insteadof writing more, I expect to visit you soon, andwewill speak directly withone another. Our mutual friends here send their greetings toallofyou.
