1 The Elder vnto the welbeloued Gaius, whom I loue in the trueth:

2 Beloued, I wish aboue all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, euen as thy soule prospereth.

3 For I reioyced greatly when the brethren came and testified of the truth that is in thee, euen as thou walkest in the trueth.

4 I haue no greater ioy, then to heare that my children walke in truth.

5 Beloued, thou doest faithfully whatsoeuer thou doest to the Brethren, and to strangers:

6 Which haue borne witnesse of thy charitie before the Church: whome if thou bring forward on their iourney after a godly sort, thou shalt doe well:

7 Because that for his Names sake they went foorth, taking nothing of the Gentiles.

8 We therefore ought to receiue such, that we might be fellow helpers to the trueth.

9 I wrote vnto the Church, but Diotrephes, who loueth to haue the preeminence among them, receiueth vs not.

10 Wherefore if I come, I will remember his deeds which he doeth, prating against vs with malicious words: and not content therewith, neither doth hee himselfe receiue the brethren, and forbiddeth them that would, and casteth them out of the Church.

11 Beloued, follow not that which is euill, but that which is good. He that doth good, is of God: but hee that doth euill, hath not seene God.

12 Demetrius hath good report of all men, and of the trueth it selfe: yea, and we also beare record, and ye know that our record is true.

13 I had many things to write, but I will not with inke and pen write vnto thee.

14 But I trust I shall shortly see thee, and wee shall speake face to face. Peace bee to thee. Our friends salute thee. Greet the friends by name.

Christy's 3 John Chapter 1 comment about verse 2 on 5/21/2013, 9:44pm...

I think the Lord is wishing us health in all areas of our life, body, soul and mind. It does not matter who said it but every word that is spoken in the bible is by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.

 


Marlyn Salva's 3 John Chapter 1 comment on 5/13/2013, 5:43pm...

God is love and He wants everyone to prosper. He wants a heart that is teacheable and willing to follow all His commandments. Many claim that they love God but only part of the commandments they follow and are pleasant to their will. Most people around the world follow only nine. They justify the 4th commandment so that they can follow what they want. If we want to prosfer both physical, spiritual, and financial, we need to obey Him with no reservation and God will bless us and be in health. Money is just secondary. In Matt. 6:33 He says But seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness; and all this things shall be added unto you. He will be our priority. God bless

I believe as long as we stay in God's word, we will prosper and have good health.

John is telling what is right to the man of God to do.

To Preach the word to the world.

 


Anthony's 3 John Chapter 1 comment about verse 2 on 10/11/2012, 6:46pm...

In time of persecution this was John's prayer to the new church. Probably reflecting Jesus promise to give life more abundantly.

 


Timothy Wayne George's 3 John Chapter 1 comment on 9/21/2012, 7:03am...

III John 1 is a great chapter, and it tells us that God wants us to prosper, even as thy soul prospers, and to be in good health. To do this we need to feast on the Word of God. Jesus said man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God. Next we need to watch our diet, and see that we do not over eat. How many people are suffering from type II diabetes because they did not do this. We are what we eat, and portion control is very important to all of us. As we follow these guidelines, we will experience the prosperity that God intends for all of us, and we will be a blessing to others in the body of Christ.
