I. The Commendation of Caius...................... 1-8

3Jo 1:1 The elder unto the wellbeloved Gaius, whom I love in the truth.

3Jo 1:2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

3Jo 1:3 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 1:4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.

3Jo 1:5 Beloved, thou doest faithfully whatsoever thou doest to the brethren, and to strangers;

3Jo 1:6 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 1:7 Because that for his name's sake they went forth, taking nothing of the Gentiles.

3Jo 1:8 We therefore ought to receive such, that we might be fellowhelpers to the truth.
