That phrase is not in the Bible, but it is true. It is proven by the scripture such as John 3:16. God so loved the world. But he hates sin because His Son died for it. But I John 1:9 says He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins if we confess them. He loves His children unconditionally. But that doesn't mean we can just sin without consequences. Hope this helps.

Rom 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Eze 18:4 Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.
Thats why we have repentence now. By HIS blood we are cleaned of all sins on repentence.

You know. Many atheists are very well read with the bible and could probably give a good answer. They would treat this as a respectable question, because it does not say, where do atheists get their morals.

For God so loved the world... (loves everyone including sinners). You must be born again... (No sin)

No, God hates the all-in-all forever unrepentant sinner, but is nonetheless merciful to it. If we shall be counted as that kind of sinner, we shall be hated.

God also hates the sinners.
Psalm 5:5: Those who are proud can't stand in front of you. You hate everyone who does what is evil.

It is not in the bible. That expression was derived from things written in the bible.

THat's not in the Bible, but it's what people say to summarize the new law of love that CHrist gave us.
