People of devout Christian faith often have a different definition of the word 'Love' than the average person. Your average person would not consider it loving to tell someone that they are corrupt, evil, damned or an abomination for having a same-sex attraction. It is a loving, Christian thing to do to help make sure that people don't end up in Hell. In this example, that means making sure that LGBT+ people are reminded that they are unclean and unwelcome in the eyes of God as they are. But I'm just a sad, hate-filled, burned up former fundie, what do I know.
