WHAT IS THEIR TO GAIN IF YOU LOVE ONLY THE ONE YOU LOVE?
Remember that GOD has given the sun to shine to both beautiful and ugly. As the same with the rain it showers to all.
Now how would you say you worship GOD if you do not know to forgive. Forgiving means loving the person itself but not the wrongdoings he did.

The implication behind that quote is so subtle... sigh. If you want to say that God doesn't love those that don't worship Him because he doesn't forgive them, well... according to Christian theology, God offers salvation freely to everyone. If someone rejects it and ends up in Hell because of it, that doesn't mean that God didn't love them, it just means that he doesn't force salvation on anyone and the person ended up getting what they wanted in the end (i.e. eternal seperation from God).

Mostly biblical, it is a quote that was created aimed at non christans. this quote simply means god(any religion) loves all men around the world, irrespective in which form they worship him.
or
whom they worship.

I have a quote too.
Jhn 15:12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.
Jhn 15:13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

I think you should keep only the first half. You worship God not a person.

I don't know if I can forgive somebody who doesn't realize I'm not perfect, lol jk.
But if you are referring to God then I think thats pretty much what he stands for.

Sounds like good advise for man, but gods love is greater than we can comprehend, so he gets last say.
