Love's opposite is hate; it's the very well known -and official- antonym of the word.
It's not even the topic of discussion in this topic; i.e the OP is not discussing the "hypothetical parallel meanings of famous words". In other words: discuss the OP; it's better for the reader.
Okey doke, let's get back to the OP. If God loves people, he couldn't possibly punish them in the manners described in either the Quran or the New Testament. Since both of these mystic tomes say that God allows precisely these sorts of punishments, God either hates some people or is indifferent to their sufferings.
I'm good either way.
