The book of 2 John is the
second of three letters that are included in the New Testament
of the Bible that were written by John, son of Zebedee. John
also authored the gospel that bears his name, and the book
of Revelation. John was very close to Jesus during His
ministry on earth and is referred to as, "the disciple whom
Jesus loved".
This letter was written around the same time as 1 John
somewhere between a.d. 70 - 100. In this letter John
warns those who might take in and provision traveling
evangelists and missionaries, that not all of them are
spreading the truth. The message is to be wary of those
teaching heresies.
