Sinful housework

My examples are as follows:

While God is just... God is not justice itself.
While God is merciful... God is not mercy itself.
While God is jealous... God is not jealousy itself.
While God is holy... God is not holiness itself.

However... God is love itself.

Thus love is:

just
merciful
holy
patient
kind
etc.

As a result... God is just, patient, merciful, holy, patient, kind, etc..

If God is 100% what about the verses that speak of How's hatred of some things and die individuals? This fits with How's nature being holy but not with His nature being love.
