Brent Johnson taught on the 1 Chapter book of 3 John with a focus on being a good ambassador for Christ. He started with some background:

Purpose: Commendation and Condemnation

Brent divided the lesson from John’s letter using three areas of focus:



Gaius

John loved Gaius in truth. Encouraged him to continue living and walking in the truth.
Diotrephes

Correct. Rebuke. Restore. Selfish. Ignores church leadership. All about me.

Demetrius

Imitates good. Encouragement in truth and love.



Points for home / Homework
