3 John 1:8 in context

  1. 6They have testified about your love before the assembly. You will do well to send them forward on their journey in a way worthy of God,
  2. 7because for the sake of the Name they went out, taking nothing from the Gentiles.
  3. 8We therefore ought to receive such, that we may be fellow workers for the truth.
  4. 9I wrote to the assembly, but Diotrephes, who loves to be first among them, doesn’t accept what we say.
  5. 10Therefore if I come, I will call attention to his deeds which he does, unjustly accusing us with wicked words. Not content with this, neither does he himself receive the brothers, and those who would, he forbids and throws out of the assembly.
