Yes God love us unconditionally but we dont love God unconditionally. We remember the God When we are in some trouble or we want some thing. It is also true that God love more those persons who have high moral qualities.

Jesus Christ the second member of The Godhead [see Hebrews 13:8, John 8:58, John 1 for Jesus being God] has more the proving His love, John 3:16 For God [The Father] "SO" Loved YOU that He gave [Jesus gave Himself] that WHOSOEVER [even those YOU do not like] should BE-LIVE in Him [belief is not enough James 2:19-20 says even satan believes and trembles] should not perish but have everlasting life, but in the investigative judgment going on NOW God's love IS NOT at question its YOUR love, The Bible also says in John 14:15 "IF" you Love me [then] keep my commandments [not suggestions by the way] so its your love at question so allow me to ask you, do YOU love Him enough to DO what He says, because "IF" not then you will not love Him enough to be there either, Find out more free bible lessons www.amazingfact.org talk to me via email wgr88@yahoo.com God bless

The Greek word "agape" is often translated "love" in the New Testament. How is "agape love" different from other types of love? The essence of agape love is self-sacrifice. Unlike our English word “love,” agape is not used in the Bible to refer to romantic or sexual love. Nor does it refer to close friendship or brotherly love, for which philia is used. Nor does agape mean charity, a term which the King James translators carried over from the Latin. Agape love is unique and is distinguished by its nature and character.
Agape is love which is of and from God, whose very nature is love itself. The Apostle John affirms this in 1 John 4:18: “God is love.” God does not merely love; He is love itself. Everything God does flows from His love. But it is important to remember that God’s love is not a sappy, sentimental love such as we often hear portrayed. God loves because that is His nature and the expression of His being. He loves the unlovable and the unlovely (us!), not because we deserve to be loved, but because it is His nature to do so, and He must be true to His nature and character. God’s love is displayed most clearly at the Cross, where Christ died for the unworthy creatures who were “dead in trespasses and sins” (Ephesians 2:1), not because we did anything to deserve it, “but God commends His love toward us in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us” (Romans 5:8). The object of agape love never does anything to merit His love. We are the undeserving recipients upon whom He lavishes that love. His love was demonstrated when He sent His Son into the world to “seek and save that which was lost” (Luke 19:10), and to provide eternal life to those He sought and saved. He paid the ultimate sacrifice for those He loves.

Well, according to the Christians God is willing to condemn you into hell for eternity if you don't jump through the proper hoops. Does that sound like unconditional love?

Inn Allaha la yuhibbul Kaafireen.
Inn Allaha la yuhibbul Mufsideen.
Inn Allaha la yuhibbul Munaafiqoon.
So Qura'n mentions certain types of people whom Allah does not love.
So no unconditional love.

"God" can create only by extending Itself...thus Its creations are part of God. God is Love, eternally extending in this infinite moment, this spacious present. We are one beloved Self, Child, of God, whole perfect complete...unconditional, yes, as we create with/within/as part of, God: All That Is.

If you have accepted His sacrifice, yes.
And that means to simply accept what has already been done on your behalf. It is not a deed or a motion.
So it is not a condition.
Yes He does.
But do we unconditionally love God?
