I. Personal History.
1. He was the son of Zebedee and
brother of the apostle James (Matt.
4:21). The implication is that his fa-
ther was In easy circumstances, rot lie
had boats and hired servants (Mark
1:19, 20).
2. He was a disciple of John the
Baptist (John 1:35-40). This was *a
most valuable training, for John was
a man sent from God (John 1:6). The
fiery eloquence of the Baptist no doubt
profoundly impressed him.
3. He was called to follow Jesus
(Matt. 4:21. 22). IIe was first called
Into the relationship of a disciple. AS
a disciple he came to know Jesus per-
sonally.
4. Appointed as an apostle (Matt.
10:2), Having been tested as a dl.~
clple, he now is appointed as an
apostle (Mark 3:13-19 ; Luke 6:13-16).
II. His Character.
1. He was reserved. That is, he
was decidedly reticent about hhnself.
He speaks of hhnself as "the disciple
whom Jesus loved" and "that otJmr
disciple."
2. He possessed a rare gift of pene.
trative Insight. The truths set forth
in his writings did not come as a re-
sult of reasoned Judgment, but of pene-
trative insight. He was Indeed a seer.
3. He was thoroughly masculine.
Christian art does him a thorough in-
Justice In portraying him as effemi-
nate. He was intense, vehement in his
temperament. He was truly a "son of
thunder," as Christ declared (Mark
3:17).
ill, Some Instances of Behavior.
1. Intolerance of irregular service
(Luke 9:49. 50). There was a certain
disciple who seems to have been intel-
ligently witnessing and God had hon-
ored hls testimony with power to cast
out devils. John forbade him because
he was not working with them.
2. His righteous indignation dis-
played (Luke 9:51-56). When Jesus
had set his face toward Jerusalem
some Samaritans refused to extend
hospitality to him. This treatment of
his Master so aroused the anger of
John and James that they desired to
call down fire from heaven to burn
them up. This action grew out of
John's great love for his Master.
3. John's care of Christ's mother
(John 19:25-27). From the cross Jesus
beheld his mother and committed her
to the tender care of John. The In-
tense love that he had for his Lord
would move him to express the tender-
est affection for his mother.
IV. HIs Third Epistle.
This Is one of the three private Epis-
tles of the New Testament and gives
us a look into the early church life
and also a picture of the aged apostle.
This Epistle consists of the following
parts:
1. The salutation (vv. 1-4). This
letter was addressed to Galus, with the
fervent wish that his temporal pros-
perity and physical health would be
measured by the measure of the in-
crease of his spirituality. His supreme
Joy was to hear that his children were
walking in the truth.
2. HIs praise for Galus (vv. 58).
This praise was for the hospitality
which Gaius showed toward some trav-
eling evangellstL In spite of the pp-
position of s certain prominent mem-
ber of the church. Gaius received these
preachers Into his home, To. receive
God's messengers into our homes and
send them forth on their Journey is a
deed worthy of God. One o~ the best
ways to help the truth is to show hoa-
pitallty to Its messengers.
3. His condemnation of Dlotrephes
(vv. 9, 10). The sin of this man was
his over-weenlng self-confidence and
arrogance. He loved to have the place
of pre-eminence; therefore, for that
reason he refused to receive these trav-
eling evangelists and expelled from
the church those who had received them
Into their homes. He even maliciously
attacked John the beloved pastor. His
spirit of pride moved him to acts of
tyranny toward others.
4. His commendation of Demetrius (v.
12). Demetrius was perhaps the bear-
er of this letter. John gives the assur-
ance that Demetrius was of good report
among all men. His life of good deeds
proved that he was in fellowship with
