1 John 3:11 in Context — 1 John 3

9 Cualquiera que es nacido de Dios, no hace pecado, porque su simiente está en él; y no puede pecar, porque es nacido de Dios.

10 En esto son manifiestos los hijos de Dios, y los hijos del diablo: cualquiera que no hace justicia, y que no ama á su hermano, no es de Dios.

11 Porque este es el mensaje que habéis oído desde el principio: Que nos amemos unos á otros.

12 No como Caín, que era del maligno, y mató á su hermano. ¿Y por qué causa le mató? Porque sus obras eran malas, y las de su hermano justas.

13 Hermanos míos, no os maravilléis si el mundo os aborrece.
