But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you. The Bible revolves around love, teaching us the way to love God and to love man.
Love is the meaning and motivation for life.
Our Lord Jesus tells us that we have to bear our cross and follow Him. These teachings behind the cross are the teachings of love, representing the relationship between God and us, and the relationship we have with each other. It is easy, of course, to love God and to love people who love us in return. But it's not so easy to love those who don't love us back. As believers who claim to have picked up our cross and followed Christ, we must remember that the burden of the cross lies in this kind of love.
