The Books of 1, 2, and 3 John are short letters in the New Testament.

1 John is an anonymous treatise stressing that true faith produces love for others and obedience to God, countering early heresies like Gnosticism.

2 John warns a church ('elect lady') against false teachers who deny Jesus' incarnation, urging adherence to love and truth.

3 John is a personal note to Gaius praising his hospitality to missionaries while rebuking Diotrephes' pride and lack of welcome.

All share similar style and themes, traditionally dated to around AD 90-100.
