A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another. John 14:34-35

With this in mind, it seems that it would be safe to say that if people don't love one another, but are instead full of hate, they are not Jesus' disciples.

I am glad you brought this up . Because so many in this day and age do not know what hate really entails . Nor what the love of GOD truly entails . The love of GOD would truly desire none to perish . It would do all to ensure both the safety of the saints and always pointing all towards CHRIST . An example of love can be found in the bible . Paul spoke of it , when writing to the church . Though the more abundantely I love you all, the less I be loved . The perfect example of what LOVE IS , IS JESUS CHRIST . How he taught , how he expounded all things unto His desciples , How he let all hear HE is the only HOPE . How He warned and in all things He did , even the sacrifice of HIS own self . Remember love rejoices only in truth . So what is hate . Lets look at what is written in the bible . You shall not hate your neighbor in your heart , you shall in ANY WAY rebuke , correct him and not allow sin upon HIM . Am I saying that one is guilty of hate if they can sit and allow their neighbor to remain in sin , to remain in darkness . I sure am . How did we ever truly have the Love of GOD in our hearts if we correct not , and just leave one in error , in the wrong direction , in darkness. JESUS came to set men free , never to allow them to remain in sins darkness . Love includes reminding all , of all things JESUS did say and teach . Teaching them to observe ALL things HE did command . JESUS knows what is best for all . And we would be ever so wise to heed and obey HIM , to heed and obey what the apostles wrote and to remind all to do the same . Continously exhorting one another with that pattern and those teachings and reminders . FOR GOD desires none to perish , AND if we are OF HIM , then we desire none to perish .

Amen. Christians look bad when they are fighting all the time.

Amen. Christians look bad when they are fighting all the time. That is true, and if we are not careful, any of us can slip and say things we shouldn't or lose our temper. We do need to consider how things look in the eyes of the world.
