Jesus=Hate?

On Tuesday, while I was getting the 6-year old ready for the bus, I received an alert text from my school.  There was a hate group protesting on campus.  The text was just to tell students to be safe.  I didn't have class on Tuesday, so it was nothing I had to worry about.  But I was curious.
A few hours later, a video finally surfaced on YouTube.  The video showed a small group of young men with various protest signs.  One sign read "Women belong in the kitchen".  Another, "You are not a good person".  But the one that stuck out to me said "Obey Jesus".
I was confused.  I had received a text about a hate group on campus.  And, according to other signs and words that were said, Jesus was the center of the protest.  But since when has Jesus been associated with hate groups?
Growing up a Christian, I was taught that Jesus and God are love.  Unconditional love.  Our choices might upset out Father in Heaven, but His love for us never fades.
In today's world, however, many people see Christianity as an enemy.  With protests from Westboro Church and other supposedly Christian organizations, it's no wonder Christianity is being given a bad name.  The world is beginning to think that Christians only care about themselves and their beliefs.  And these beliefs are being forced upon others.  This wasn't the way Jesus acted, and it's surely not the way He wants us to act.
Jesus went about healing the sick, blessing children, and comforting sinners.  Sure,  he would tell people to 'sin no more', but is there anywhere in the Bible where Jesus follows up with these people to see if they have stopped sinning?  I can't think of any.  That's because we all have a choice.  And Jesus respects that.  We have the choice to learn his Gospel, or to shun it.  Whatever choice we make, Jesus still loves us.
So to all my non-Christian friends.  Even though you may not believe in Jesus Christ and Heavenly Father, I do.  And I know that you are loved.  I love you.  And Jesus loves you.  Regardless of your choices.
