The Third Epistle of John presents one of the shortest books of the New Testament in the enduring language of the King James Version.
Traditionally attributed to John the Elder, this brief personal letter offers a rare glimpse into the lived realities of the early Christian community. Addressed to Gaius, it commends faithfulness, integrity, and generosity, placing particular emphasis upon hospitality extended to those who travelled in service of the gospel. At the same time, it cautions against prideful authority and the misuse of influence within the church.
Though modest in length, the epistle reflects enduring concerns: the relationship between truth and conduct, the responsibilities of leadership, and the moral character required of believers. Its tone is pastoral yet direct, balancing commendation with warning.
Presented here in the measured and resonant prose of the 1611 King James translation, this standalone volume preserves a text whose simplicity of form carries lasting theological and historical significance.
