Okay so perhaps my example was off. I still hold that God is a Lovingkind God. This is not a personal opinion. This is written many times in the bible. This was the point to my post which you managed to avoid. You focus on the misgivings and ignore the points others are trying to portray. Whereas I can conceed to your point you ignore mine. Where’s the love Underdog?

John 4:7 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God; and everyone who loves is born of of God and knows God. The one who does not love does not know God, for God is love.

Glory be to God
God Is Love. ❤️
Romans 5:8
but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

In context:

For while we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. For one will scarcely die for a righteous person—though perhaps for a good person one would dare even to die— but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Since, therefore, we have now been justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved by him from the wrath of God. For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life. More than that, we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.

If you want to understand the love of God, start with the wrath of God. All Christians were once children of wrath and sons of disobedience.

And you were dead in the trespasses and sins in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience— among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind. But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved— and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. - Ephesians 2

Like I said you cannot conceed yet are quick to point out others misgivings. Again I say where’s the love?

I prayed for you today Underdog.
“By this we know Love, That He Laid Down His Life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for the Brothers.” (1 John 3:16)
 
From your response underdog I would say that we agree. Although God can have wrath He is still an all loving God. Which of course was the question asked by the OP. This was the point I was trying to make all along.

John 4:7 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God; and everyone who loves is born of of God and knows God. The one who does not love does not know God, for God is love.
