    Who Are You Imitating?

    Contributed by Greg Tabor on Feb 8, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,678 views

    Don't imitate what is evil, but rather what is good. Even in the church and even in leadership we can find poor examples. We shouldn't walk after the example of men and women like Diotrephes. We should instead follow the example of men and women who exhib

    INTRO.- ILL.- When a physician remarked on a new patient’s extraordinarily ruddy complexion, he said, "High blood pressure, Doc. It comes from my family." "Your mother’s side or your father’s?"

    Dealing With Diotrephes

    Contributed by David Wilson on Feb 17, 2011
     | 11,655 views

    John writes a letter that commends his friend Gaius, encourages him, and assures him that the troublemaker Diotrephes would be dealt with.

    VERSES 1-2 FROM JOHN WITH LOVE Once again we have John addressing himself as the elder, which is more a title of authority than speaking of age. He addresses his letter to his dear friend Gaius and once again, as we saw in his gospel and his first two letter, emphasizes LOVE. He declares that ...read more

     | 10,283 views

    3 John verse 11 echoes the words of John throughout his writings. We are called by Jesus Christ to leave sin and follow the truth.

    This morning our text is 3 John. Adam Clarke notes that we seldom hear 3 John quoted but in reproof of lordly tyrants, or prating troublesome fellows in the Church. He says that it has been the lot of both the minor prophets and the minor epistles to be generally neglected, because with many ...read more

    No Greater Joy Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 14, 2010
     | 10,629 views

    Joy is the heritage of the believer. If we do not have joy in our Christian walk, it is either because we do not know the author of joy, or we are disobedient to His will.

    “Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul. For I rejoiced greatly when the brothers came and testified to your truth, as indeed you are walking in the truth. I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,388 views

    Christians are taught to love one another. However, what is it that causes us to love one another? How shall we love? John gives us a glimpse of the love we are to have in this brief letter to a man named Gaius.

    “The elder to the beloved Gaius, whom I love in truth. “Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul. For I rejoiced greatly when the brothers came and testified to your truth, as indeed you are walking in the truth. I have no ...read more

     | 922 views

    Joy is something deeper than happiness. And the apostle John speaks of having no greater joy when writing the letter that we know as Third John.

    Alba 11-3-2024 NO GREATER JOY III John 1-4 Have you ever been surprised by joy? Something happens when you least expect it, even in the midst of otherwise sad feelings or grief, and joy comes, at least for a moment?

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jan 24, 2024
     | 1,347 views

    The Apostle John wrote to his close friend Gaius, and in this short letter we read of a close friend, a wicked man, and an excellent example of a Christian testimony. They are the three men in this letter. I hope you find this instructive.

    THREE MEN AND A CHURCH – NOW WHAT IS THE RESULT? – 3rd LETTER OF JOHN Here are three glimpses of a church that could be any church but it is specific to the little group where Gaius was fellowshipping. We are going to look at three men mentioned in John’s letter to that church synonymous to ...read more

    Contrast Of Testimonies Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Apr 3, 2024
     | 1,925 views

    Can you picture a contrast of testimonies in your mind? A situation where there was a believer with a good testimony and one with a bad testimony. John contrasts two church leaders and mentions their testimonies that are complete opposites.

    Don’t you like the old western cowboy movies when you knew who the good guy was and who was the bad guy. You can pick them out easily in those old movies because the good guy wears the white hat, and the bad guy wears the black hat.

    Be careful of the “Just Us Club!” Be careful of any ministry that is designed for “Just Us.” We must welcome the Christian stranger, not welcome weird doctrine but believers with genuine hospitality!

     | 3,808 views

    If God had a Twitter account, what would he tweet? The Bible contains five short, one-chapter books. In the fourth, 3 John, we are introduced to three types of people you might meet at church: a joy, a jerk, and a jewel.
