Today, we will reflect on 3 John, Walking in the Truth. This letter is closely connected to 2 John, which was written to encourage the church not to support traveling teachers who were teaching heresies about Jesus. Here in 3 John, John is now encouraging them to support those who are travelling teachers who are teaching about Jesus. Even in the early church, there were power struggles, and so John is encouraging them to walk in the truth, to walk in the way of Jesus, to remember who they are as followers of Jesus. John calls the church to extend hospitality to these workers of God, as God is a generous and hospitable God.
