Who Wrote This Book? The apostle John wrote this book about the same time as 1st and 2d John, in the A.D. 80’s.
Written To: This was a brief letter to his friend Gaius, perhaps to accompany his more general letter from 1 John. He encouraged him for his faithful support of legitimate teachers. He also warned him about the actions of a certain strong-willed leader named Diotrephes.
Why It Was Written. This book shows the Christian love in success and failure. First John teaches us to love; third John illustrates the right and wrong ways to love. It also teaches how to love, especially in church.
Key Verses: As in 2d John, 3d John consists of 13 verses, so all are a key verse. Take 5 minutes to read 3 John.
