3JO-11  The elder unto the wellbeloved Gaius whom I love in the

truth .

3JO-12  Beloved I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper

and be in health even as thy soul prospereth .

3JO-13  For I rejoiced greatly when the brethren came and

testified of the truth that is in thee even as thou walkest in

the truth .

3JO-14  I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk

in truth .

3JO-15  Beloved thou doest faithfully whatsoever thou doest to

the brethren and to strangers .

3JO-16  Which have borne witness of thy charity before the

church whom if thou bring forward on their journey after a godly

sort thou shalt do well .

3JO-17  Because that for his name's sake they went forth taking

nothing of the Gentiles .

3JO-18  We therefore ought to receive such that we might be

fellowhelpers to the truth .

3JO-19  I wrote unto the church but Diotrephes who loveth to

have the preeminence among them receiveth us not .

3JO-110  Wherefore if I come I will remember his deeds which he

doeth prating against us with malicious words and not content

therewith neither doth he himself receive the brethren and

forbiddeth them that would and casteth them out of the church .

3JO-111  Beloved follow not that which is evil but that which is

good He that doeth good is of God but he that doeth evil hath

not seen God .

3JO-112  Demetrius hath good report of all men and of the truth

itself yea and we also bear record and ye know that our record

is true .

3JO-113  I had many things to write but I will not with ink and

pen write unto thee .

3JO-114  But I trust I shall shortly see thee and we shall speak

face to face Peace be to thee Our friends salute thee Greet the

friends by name .
