If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?
Si alguien dice: 'Amo a Dios' pero odia a su hermano, es un mentiroso. Porque el que no ama a su hermano a quien ha visto, no puede amar a Dios a quien no ha visto.
No puedes amar a Dios si odias a las personas que están a tu alrededor.
📚 Contexto Histórico
The Apostle John wrote his first epistle to encourage early Christians who were facing false teachers that promoted a distorted view of love and faith, often downplaying the need for practical expressions of love. In the context of 1 John, the author emphasizes that genuine faith in God must be evidenced by loving others, as this reflects God's own love demonstrated through Jesus. This verse specifically addresses the hypocrisy of claiming spiritual devotion while neglecting real relationships, challenging the Gnostic influences that separated the spiritual from the physical.
