3 John 1:2-8

2Dear friend, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, just as it is well with your soul.

3For I rejoiced greatly when the brothers came and testified to your truth, just as you are living according to the truth.

4I have no greater joy than this: to hear that my children are living according to the truth.

5Dear friend, you demonstrate faithfulness by whatever you do for the brothers (even though they are strangers).

6They have testified to your love before the church. You will do well to send them on their way in a manner worthy of God.

7For they have gone forth on behalf of “The Name,” accepting nothing from the pagans.

8Therefore we ought to support such people, so that we become coworkers in cooperation with the truth.
