John, Third Epistle Of:
is addressed to Caius, or Gaius, but whether to the Christian of that name in Macedonia (Act 19:29) or in Corinth (Rom 16:23) or in Derbe (Act 20:4) is uncertain. It was written for the purpose of commending to Gaius some Christians who were strangers in the place where he lived, and who had gone thither for the purpose of preaching the gospel (3Jo 1:7).
The Second and Third Epistles were probably written soon after the First, and from Ephesus.
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
