“1 Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the Father loves whoever has been born of him. 2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and obey his commandments. 3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome. 4 For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith. 5 Who is it that overcomes the world except the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?” (1 John 5:1-5) [ESV]
“1 Todo aquel que cree que Jesús es el Cristo, es nacido de Dios. Todo aquel que ama al Padre, ama al que ha nacido de Él. 2 En esto sabemos que amamos a los hijos de Dios: cuando amamos a Dios y guardamos Sus mandamientos. 3 Porque este es el amor de Dios: que guardemos Sus mandamientos, y Sus mandamientos no son difíciles. 4 Porque todo lo que es nacido de Dios vence al mundo. Y esta es la victoria que ha vencido al mundo: nuestra fe. 5 ¿Y quién es el que vence al mundo, sino el que cree que Jesús es el Hijo de Dios? (1 Juan 5:1-5) [NBLA]

John says the Christ follower “overcomes” and “has overcome” the world! In one sense, the victory has already happened. But in another sense, we are still overcoming it. We are already victorious, but we still have to fight to hold our ground.
Juan dice que el seguidor de Cristo “vence” y “ha vencido” al mundo. En cierto sentido, la victoria ya se ha producido. Pero en otro sentido, todavía estamos venciendo. Ya somos victoriosos, pero luchamos para mantenernos firmes.
