2 John
V6 "...his command is that you walk in love."
One of the biggest fundamentals of Christianity and one that is the biggest short comings of people following Christianity.
Because we do not know what love is, and God was able to love us first, we are in the constant state of learning what love is, and therefore a constant state of challenge.
Some, myself included, believes love is a law, and it is to be followed and carried out, or, love does not judge, or love might be happiness, but what is happiness? The list goes on, but we probably can find the answer in the 1st letter from Paul to the Corinthians.
Ultimately, God is love, and the only way to learn what love is, is to walk with Jesus.
V8-11
"Watch out that you do not lose what you have worked for, but that you may be rewarded fully. Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son. If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take him into your house or welcome him. Anyone who welcomes him shares in his wicked work."
On the other hand, if God is love, than what is not of God is not love, or hate.
The teachings and messages from the apostles were very strict and God made it specific to point out love what is good, and hate what is evil, for evil has no part of God.
To God be the Glory.
