The love here spoken is the love for a soul not that love of romance. Before you can truly have love for another's soul, you must first love your own soul and care for it. Jesus said its a fool who wins others but loses his own soul. How can I take care of your soul unless I've taken care of my own? You can't. As these 2 teachings fufil the 10 Commandments, so to do these teachings fufil even love for yourself. The difference between love and hate is understanding. When you understand there is more to life than you see, you created by God for a reason, you will strive to do great things for others, God and yourself. Few years ago I loved God, but hated myself but when this understanding came to me, that changed, my diet, friends, language, fitness, attitude, everything. It's light that quences darkness, that light is understanding which that wipes out this hate for God, others & yourself.edit on 26-8-2013 by TheBrother because: (no reason given)

I do not publish,sell nor give-away easily all the answers, for what would a student learn in school if the teacher just gave all the answers without the opportunity to ascend in their thinking?
Example "death" could mean falling away from God, or falling away from Evil and towards God.

I find this kind of distressing. If a word can mean two opposite things at once, it can mean anything you want it to. That's the problem with god being in written form (the bible), you can make it mean anything you want it to to fit in with your preconceived notions.
I have heard Buddah preached love and that's what Jesus brought with his 2 wonderful teachings. Love God above all, and your neighbor as yourself. Seems they were both working for the same side.
