The reason I ask: I was taught that it was "Love one another as I have loved you," and to love God. I'm Roman Catholic.
While talking to a Baptist, he told me I was wrong, that Jesus's commission to us was "Go out and convert the nations," and that "Love one another" was only for, as he put it, "the brethren," the people in his church.
He was very adamant that he did not have to love people who weren't already "saved," per the Baptist church. I found that very interesting.
What is your church, and what does it hold as Jesus's greatest, most important command to us?
