3 John
A bit from my study Bible about 3 John:
"Itinerant teachers sent out by John were rejected in one of the churches in the province of Asia by a dictatorial leader, Diotrephes, who even excommunicated members who showed hospitality to John's messengers. John wrote this letter to commend Gaius for supporting the teachers and , indirectly, to warn Diotrephes. "
This is a frightening prospect...the rejection of teachers who are speaking the truth. It is incentive to know the Bible and the heart of God as shown in His word so that we can discern false teachers from those who speak the truth. We are so fortunate to have the word in our own language and available to us without fear of prosecution for having possession of it.
