SEV Biblia, Chapter 5:1

¶ Todo aquel que cree que Jess es el Cristo, es nacido de Dios; y cualquiera que ama al que engendr, ama tambin al que es nacido de l.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - 1 John 5:1

Verse 1. Whosoever believeth, &c.] Expressions of this
kind are to be taken in connection with the subjects necessarily implied in them. He that believeth that Jesus is the Messiah, and confides in him for the remission of sins, is begotten of God; and they who are pardoned and begotten of God love him in return for his love, and love all those who are his children.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 1. Whosoever believeth that
Jesus is the Christ , &c.] Or the Messiah that was prophesied of old, was long promised to the Jews, and whom they expected; there was a person spoken of in the writings of the Old Testament under this character, ( Psalm 2:2 Daniel 9:25,26); and the Jews looked for him; and Jesus of Nazareth is he, as appears by all the characteristics of the Messiah in prophecy being found upon him: this the Jews deny, but is the grand article of faith embraced by the apostles and followers of Jesus, and is of very great importance; he that denies it is a liar, and he that does not believe it shall die in his sins: the word signifies anointed, and includes all the offices of the Son of God, to which he was anointed, as prophet, priest, and King; so that to believe him to be the Christ, is to believe him to be that prophet Moses said should come, and who has declared the whole mind and will of his Father; and that he is that priest that should arise after the order of Melchizedek, and make atonement for sin, and intercession for transgressors; and that he is that King whom God has set over his holy hill of Zion, whose laws are to be obeyed, and his commands observed: but to believe that Jesus is the Christ, or the Messiah, is not barely to give an assent to this truth, or to acknowledge it; so the devils themselves have done, ( Luke 4:41); and whole nations of men, multitudes of which were never born of God; it is not a mere profession of it before men, or an idle, inoperative faith, which is destitute of love to Christ, and obedience to him; but whereas his work and business, as the Christ of God, was to bring in an everlasting righteousness, to procure the remission of sin, and to make peace and reconciliation for it, and to obtain eternal salvation; true faith in him as the Messiah is a believing with the heart unto righteousness, or a looking to, and trusting in the righteousness of Christ for justification; and a dealing with his blood for pardon and cleansing, under a sense of guilt and filth; and a laying hold on his atoning sacrifice for the expiation of sin, and peace with God; and a reception of him as the only Saviour and Redeemer, or a dependence on him for life and salvation; and which faith shows itself in love to him, and in a professed subjection to his Gospel, and cheerful submission to his ordinances: and every such person is born of God ; is a partaker of the divine nature; has Christ formed, and every grace of the Spirit implanted in him, among which faith in Christ is a considerable one; and such an one in consequence is openly a child and heir of God, wherefore, to be born of God is an instance of great grace, and an high honour and privilege, and of the greatest moment and importance.

Regeneration is not owing to the power and will of man, but to the abundant mercy and good will of God, and is an instance of his rich mercy, great love, and free favour, and commands love again: and everyone that loveth him that begat ; that is, God the Father, who has begotten them again to a lively hope, according to his abundant mercy and sovereign will; and as he is their Father that has begotten them, they cannot but love him: and such an one loveth him also that is begotten of him ; not only Jesus Christ, who by nature is the only begotten of the Father; for those who know God to be their Father by adoption and regeneration, will love Christ, who is the Son of God by nature; (see John 8:42); but also every regenerate person, all that are born of God; since they are the children of the same Father with them, belong to the same household and family, and bear the image and likeness of their heavenly Father on them.


Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 1-5 - True love for the people of God, may be distinguished from natura kindness or party attachments, by its being united with the love of God, and obedience to his commands. The same Holy Spirit that taugh the love, will have taught obedience also; and that man cannot trul love the children of God, who, by habit, commits sin or neglects know duty. As God's commands are holy, just, and good rules of liberty an happiness, so those who are born of God and love him, do not count the grievous, but lament that they cannot serve him more perfectly Self-denial is required, but true Christians have a principle whic carries them above all hinderances. Though the conflict often is sharp and the regenerate may be cast down, yet he will rise up and renew his combat with resolution. But all, except believers in Christ, ar enslaved in some respect or other, to the customs, opinions, or interests of the world. Faith is the cause of victory, the means, the instrument, the spiritual armour by which we overcome. In and by fait we cleave to Christ, in contempt of, and in opposition to the world Faith sanctifies the heart, and purifies it from those sensual lusts by which the world obtains sway and dominion over souls. It has the indwelling Spirit of grace, which is greater than he who dwells in the world. The real Christian overcomes the world by faith; he sees, in an by the life and conduct of the Lord Jesus on earth, that this world is to be renounced and overcome. He cannot be satisfied with this world but looks beyond it, and is still tending, striving, and pressin toward heaven. We must all, after Christ's example, overcome the world or it will overcome us to our ruin.
