Introduction to 3 John | NT Intro 2 | Lecture 11c | Rev. Tim Nicholls | But Servants

In Christian history, figures like John Stott and Billy Graham stand out as influential leaders, shaping global movements and leading countless to faith. However, most believers will never hold such prominent positions. Does this mean our role in the spread of the gospel is diminished? 3 John offers a resounding “no.” This short epistle reminds us that even “ordinary believers” play a crucial role in advancing the kingdom. At the heart of 3 John lies the theme of walking in the truth, which manifests in practical acts of Christian hospitality—especially toward those who travel to share the gospel. This lecture gives an introduction and overview of 3 John. This lecture was delivered for NT Survey 2: New Testament Epistles for Malaysia Bible Seminary on 11th September 2025.
