Where in the Bible does it teach you to treat others like that, whether they are an enemy or not?

When you believe God's Word is the Final Authority get back to us about what it teaches. Until then - the catechism is yours.

"Making the Word of God of none effect through your tradition, which you have delivered: and many such like things do you."

You don't get to dabble in His Word to suit your present need. That's taking JESUS, The Living Word way too lightly and that's putting it very mildly.

Matthew 5
38 “You have heard that it was said, `An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.’
39 But I say to you, Do not resist one who is evil. But if any one strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also;
40 and if any one would sue you and take your coat, let him have your cloak as well;
41 and if any one forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles.
42 Give to him who begs from you, and do not refuse him who would borrow from you.
43 “You have heard that it was said, `You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’
44 But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,
45 so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.
46 For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same?
47 And if you salute only your brethren, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same?
48 You, therefore, must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.

Did the Holy Spirit nominate you to set the rules for the use of God's Word?

Making the Word of God of none effect through your tradition, which you have delivered: and many such like things do you.

Now I praise you, brethren, that you remember me in all things and keep the traditions just as I delivered them to you.

You don't get to dabble in His Word to suit your present need. That's taking JESUS, The Living Word way too lightly and that's putting it very mildly.

You must have me confused with a Protestant. You know, the ones with female pastors, homosexual marriage, etc.
