We could consider God's love to be unconditional, if we believe that He loves us as even as He is throwing (some of) us into hell. Those of us who don't bear good fruit (hewn down and thrown into the fire), for example.

God's love is unconditional. His conditions for forgiveness were met in Jesus Christ. Faith in Jesus imputes His righteousness to those who believe, the only condition that is required.
