3 John 1:1-7 ▼

1 The Elder: To my dear friend Gaius: I love you in the truth.

2 Dear friend, I pray that you may prosper in every way and be in good health physically just as you are spiritually.

3 For I was very glad when some brothers came and testified to your faithfulness to the truth—how you are walking in the truth.

4 I have no greater joy than this: to hear that my children are walking in the truth.

5 Dear friend, you are showing faithfulness by whatever you do for the brothers, especially when they are strangers.

6 They have testified to your love in front of the church. You will do well to send them on their journey in a manner worthy of God,

7 since they set out for the sake of the Name, accepting nothing from pagans.
