Commentary on "Power Struggle"
Day 5: Wednesday September 23, 2009
3 John 11 was written for Gaius to share with his fellowship because the leader of that fellowship would not receive council from the apostle John. Our application today from this passage is that we need to examine our leaders carefully against God’s Word to see if they are acting contrary to it. If they are acting contrary to God’s Word we most likely need to fellowship elsewhere.
Concerning Demetrius John states that no one has a bad word to say about him; what an excellent example for us all to aspire towards. This is impossible without personally knowing Christ and submitting to His will for your life.
