Love isn't difficult to understand. It is neither mysterious nor requisite of God. Love is simply that situation that exists when another person's happiness is essential to your own.

But seriously, MK, your religion isn't helping your mental illness, it's exacerbating it. I'm not saying you should abandon your faith, but you jumped off the deep end a year or so ago, and I don't see you getting any better.
Person to person, I think you need to stop, and reevaluate yourself because you're obviously not happy, and are trying to come up with dogmatic justifications for the way you torture yourself.
Despite what many religions state, there's actually no glory or dignity in suffering. And there's no reason to see it as something anyone deserves.

Well, MK's real name is Hasan Get Laid.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
