このコンテンツについて
This message walks through the short but powerful letter of 3 John, highlighting its central call to “imitate good, not evil.” The text contrasts the faithfulness and hospitality of Gaius with the pride and self-interest of Diotrephes. From these examples, listeners are challenged to consider what it means to walk in truth and love.
To explore this further, the teaching draws on concepts like the Prisoner’s Dilemma and game theory, showing how self-interest often drives human behavior and fuels division. In contrast, Jesus calls His followers to live in a way that seems upside down—loving first, forgiving freely, standing against evil, and living consistently by the Spirit. While this path may not appear logical or safe, it reflects the example of Christ and offers a glimpse of the eternal hope where betrayal and fear no longer exist.
