The book of Second John is the twenty-fourth book of the New Testament. The Second epistle of John has, on account of its salutation, occasioned much discussion. John has an urgent message that centers round the “truth” in its relation to Christian living, by the “truth” and John means not only the body of revealed truth, the Scriptures, but also the Lord Jesus Christ who, as the chief subject of the Scriptures, is Himself the Truth Incarnate. This Epistle can be divided into two parts: 1) The pathway of Truth and love. 2) The mark of a deceiver and Antichrist. The author of this book is John. Listed below are questions on the book of Second John. These questions can be used freely for Sunday school or bible study to help all young Christians study the scriptures. My prayers are with you always and may God bless you in your studies.
