Psalm 89:14 .. The Right and Justice are the roots of your rule , Love and Truth are its fruit.. The message transl. Righteousness and justice come first! The law came first ,Jesus was the fulfillment of the law and brought grace Mercy has the last word!

If my understanding is correct he is saying that love is important but it isn't enough because people in our society don't understand real love (non selfish love as opposed to the love one has for just their friends family and significant other.) In other words actually loving and caring about all mankind and God's creatures even when they hurt you. Is my understanding correct?

I think you’re spot-on.

Everyone with common sense knows that you need money and love, love is not all you need and the only reason The Beatles didn't mention the "money" part was simply due too the fact that the Beatles had plenty of money.
