God's love is conditional upon His election and, by extention, one being covered by the spotlessness of Christ. Even the saints God loves conditionally, i.e. only because He has elected us.

I say this because He first loved us, and He only shows that love to those whom He has elected. There are those who would disagree and say that God loves the whole world, but I don't think either an active predestination or a passive allowance of reprobation leaves room for this statement. In one instance, God is actively judging rebels and destining them for Hell, in another, He is allowing them to heap damnation on their heads while they defile the current creation to rebel against thier creator. I think the latter implies the former though, but many still seem to make the distinction.
