“Beloved, I pray that in all respects you may prosper and be in good health, just as your soul prospers” (3 John 2).
The consistent message through out the Bible is that we are sinners and we need a transformed life. We cannot keep the Golden Rule, the Sermon on the Mount or any of the demands of a holy God. The Christian life begins with a confession of our failure to live up to God's holy demands, and our personal trust in Jesus Christ. It takes a new birth to make us right with God.
The apostle John sent greetings to a faithful servant of Christ named Gaius. His wish is for Gaius’ outward prosperity to correspond to the condition of his soul. Verses 2-6 demonstrate that he was an outstanding man in his church.
