1 John 2:7 in Context — 1 John 2
5 Mas el que guarda su palabra, la caridad de Dios está verdaderamente perfecta en él: por esto sabemos que estamos en él.
6 El que dice que está en él, debe andar como él anduvo.
7 Hermanos, no os escribo mandamiento nuevo, sino el mandamiento antiguo que habéis tenido desde el principio: el mandamiento antiguo es la palabra que habéis oído desde el principio.
8 Otra vez os escribo un mandamiento nuevo, que es verdadero en él y en vosotros; porque las tinieblas son pasadas, y la verdadera luz ya alumbra.
9 El que dice que está en luz, y aborrece á su hermano, el tal aun está en tinieblas todavía.
