Chunks: The Letters of John

Third John follows the ancient customs of letter writing more closely than 2 John, and much more closely than 1 John.

John’s well-wishes in verse 2, however, have been famously taken out of context and made to say something they weren’t meant to say—to support what’s known as the prosperity gospel.
