3 John

3 John is a brief book in the New Testament of the Christian Bible, traditionally attributed to the Apostle John. It is a personal letter addressed to a man named Gaius, commending him for his hospitality to traveling Christians and promoting good works. The letter contrasts the positive example of Gaius with the negative behavior of Diotrephes, who rejects John’s authority and does not welcome others. Overall, 3 John emphasizes the importance of support within the Christian community, leadership integrity, and the need for believers to care for one another.
