It's that simple for us as well. Jesus asks us to love one another just as He loves us. People are too often bogged down in the minutiae of their religious beliefs that they lose sight of this goal. This should be the continual touchstone in our dealings with one another.
The thing is, as simple as it sounds, this is really hard to do. There are people who shout at the top of their lungs things that I hate. Somehow, I need to find a way to love them. This does not mean that I should agree with them or take their abuse. It means that my interactions need to come from the core of love, and not just my definition of love, but love as Jesus taught us.
