Gaius

Gaius was a beloved Christian to whom the apostle John addressed his third epistle. John commended him for walking in the truth and for his generous hospitality to traveling missionaries, even strangers, sending them on their way in a manner worthy of God. His faithfulness stood in sharp contrast to Diotrephes, who rejected John's authority and refused to welcome the brothers. Gaius exemplifies practical Christian love through hospitality.
