What the difference between render and GLContext?

Hi, Sirs:
I create a window by calling SDL_CreateWindow(...).
Then, I use SDL_CreateContext(...) to create GLContext and SDL_CreateRenderer(...) to create a render.
After that, I just render GL part, and I don't see anything updated on display.
My question is if it is forbidden to create render and GLContext at the same time?
BTW, if I don't create render, only GLContext, it can update the display as my expectation.
