		The epistle may have been written by a different author, or, from a more popular standpoint, by the author of the gospel, possibly (as some critics hold) by the author of John xxi.
		The problem of the epistles is discussed incidentally by many writers on the Fourth Gospel, as well as by writers on New Testament introduction like Zahn, Jacquier, Barth and Bclser, on the Conset-vative side, and Hilgenfeld, Jillicher and von Soden on the Liberal.

	Introduction to John's Epistles
		The First Epistle is a summary of his exhortations to believers to practice the precepts of Christ stated in such a way as to guard them against the evils of religious error.
		John living to see the time when both the divinity and the humanity of his Master were publicly denied wrote the Fourth Gospel to meet the first error, and this pastoral address to counteract the second.
		John writes as if conscious that he is writing the last statement of Christian truth in epistolary form, just as he had written the last of the Gospels.

		John was the son of Zebedee and Salome, and the brother of James the Greater.

	John the Evangelist - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Tradition has identified him with John the Apostle and with John of Patmos, the author of the Book of Revelation.
		There are also schools of thought which attribute some of these five works (always including The Gospel of John) to John the Apostle and others (usually including the 2nd and 3rd epistles) to another John.
		Collectively, the Gospel, the three Epistles, and Revelation are known as Johannine literature, and there is some internal textual evidence to suggest they may have been authored by the same person (see textual criticism).

		In light of these principles, the originality of 1 John 5:7b–8a (unless otherwise noted, references concern First John) in the Textus Receptus is rejected, even though the New King James Version (the text of choice for the GES series) is used throughout for exposition.
		These epistles, especially First and Second John, must be interpreted in light of the principles Jesus laid down in the Upper Room Discourse (John 13–17) written earlier by the same apostle in his Gospel (dated by Hodges, ca.
		First John 2:19 has been consistently summoned as a proof text for the teaching that defection from the faith ("they went out from us") renders faith illegitimate ("but they were not of us").

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Epistles of Saint John
		Here is an evident trace of I John, iv, 2-3; so evident that Harnack deems this witness of Polycarp conclusive proof that the first Epistle and, consequently, the Gospel of John were written toward the end of the reign of Trajan, i.e.
		The argument from Polycarp's use of I John is strengthened by the fact that he was, according to Irenæus, the disciple of St. John.
		Hence it is that Papias, in joining John with Aristion, speaks of John the Elder and not of Aristion the Elder; Aristion was not an elder or Apostle.

		John denounced such heretical teachings, labeling those who so taught as "antichrists." He reaffirmed in a positive way both the humanity (1 John 4:1–3) and the divinity of the Savior, and the vital importance of coming to know Christ.
		John makes very clear that if one loves God he will love his brother; and inversely, that if one says he loves God but hates his brother, he is a liar.
		John warns the saints against the growing threat of "deceivers" and antichrists.

	Concordant Commentary - First John
		THE EPISTLES OF John, just as truly as Peter and James, ministered to the Circumcision, and referred to the nations as outside the sphere of fellowship (cf 3 Jn.7).
		John's gospel and epistles were written too late to be used by most of the Circumcision in the past, hence have their special sphere and application in the future.
		John's "if we should say," is like James' test "If anyone should be saying." John sets God before the believer as Light, Love and Spirit, while Paul sets the believer before God in Christ.

	John's Epistles (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		At the beginning of each of these two epistles the author refers to himself as "the elder." There are three major views as to what this phrase means.
		John is simply referring to himself as an older man. The word presbuteros is used quite frequently with the meaning "an old man; an aged person" (Acts 2:17; I Timothy 5:1-2; I Peter 5:5), or of those who are older in age, relatively speaking, than another (Luke 15:25; John 8:9).
		Since John was probably close to being 100 years old, it is felt by a great many scholars that he was simply alluding to his advanced age.

		These letters were probably written after the Gospel of John and before the persecution under Domitian in A.D. Probably from Ephesus because there is a strong tradition that John spent his old age in Ephesus.

	A Timely Study The Epistles of John - Chuck Missler
		It should not surprise us that the Holy Spirit has anticipated every conceivable form of attack and diversion, and the three epistles of John are full of insights that are timely for each of us - at the personal level as well as the corporate.
		In fact, it is surprising that Jesus didn't consign her to one of her other four sons. Jesus was raised among a family of at least seven: five brothers and two sisters.
		I John has been called the sanctum sanctorum of the New Testament, and is a climax after the other two. It is really more of a sermon than a personal letter. It develops, in detail, the themes of love and truth introduced in II John.

		The first readers of this letter from John the apostle knew he had heard, seen, and even touched the Lord Jesus Christ, and sometimes referred to Him as the Word or the Word of God.
		John said he had complete joy to repeat and explain what he had seen and heard of God's Word.
		The last half of John's letter explains "This is how..." This is how we know what love is. This is how we know we belong to the truth.

	Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary: Second John.
		Still his own opinion was that the two minor Epistles were genuine, remarking, as he does in Demonstration of the Gospel [3.5], that in John's "Epistles" he does not mention his own name, nor call himself an apostle or evangelist, but an "elder" (2Jo 1; 3Jo 1).
		.--The Third Epistle is directed to Gaius or Caius; whether Gaius of Macedonia (Ac 19:20), or Gaius of Corinth (Ro 16:23; 1Co 1:14), or Gaius of Derbe (Ac 20:4), it is hard to decide.
		RENÆUS, who narrates the story on their authority, that on one occasion when John was about to bathe, and heard that Cerinthus, the heretic, was within, he retired with abhorrence, exclaiming, Surely the house will fall in ruins since the enemy of the truth is there.

		The critical question about authorship of the three epistles is dealt with in all fairness and incisiveness.
		Historical references to John’s contemporaries, Papias and Irenaeus, add considerable weight to the Johannine authorship of the three epistles.
		As in all his exegetical-expositional works, Hiebert presents a clear, logical, and analytical outline of each epistle, a teaching and learning device he has developed with great skill over the many years of professional instruction.

	Did Jesus exist?
		Epistles of John: The epistles of John, the Gospel of John, and Revelation appear so different in style and content that they could hardly have the same author.
		Most scholars consider the second epistle as unreliable or an outright forgery (for some examples, see the introduction to 2 Peter in the full edition of The New Jerusalem Bible, 1985, and [3]).
		For the various styles of the New Testament texts ascribed to John- The Gospel, the letters, and the Book of Revelations-- are each so different in their style that it is extremely unlikely that they had been written by one person.
