I agree that God is love in the sense that love is a divine attribute. In the same sense though God is just and God is merciful and God is gracious. When we begin to speak of His nature though He is Holy. You have still not answered why God calls Him self the Holy one of Israel, or why the number one adjective pertainning to God in the Bible is Holy.
1. If God is first foremost and above all love why does He never call Himself the Loveing one of Israel or else why does the prophets never call Him this?
2. Why is the it that the Angel when describing to Mary the baby to born describes as Holy not loving?
Luke 1:35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also
that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.
3. Why is it that God is called the Holy Ghost and not the Loving Ghost?
