3 John 1:4-7
4I have no greater joy than 1this, to hear of 2my children 3walking in the truth.
5Beloved, you are acting faithfully in whatever you accomplish for the 4brothers and sisters, and 5especially when they are 6strangers; 6and they have testified to your love before the church. You will do well to 78send them on their way in a manner 9worthy of God. 7For they went out for the sake of 10the Name, 11accepting nothing from the Gentiles.
