No, Ruben, God is always love. He is ontologically love meaning that His being is love. Why is He angry with sinners 24/7? What is His wrath like? Or His hate? That's what must be struggled through.
 
The bible is a story that has a beginning, a middle (complete with the climax of the crucifixion) and an ending. In a novel, even if a character stays the same, the situation in the beginning is very different from the ending. The same character may end up reacting differently even if he is unchanged during the whole story. Hebrews says that God spoke to us in various ways through his prophets but in the last days, he has spoken to us through His Son. Now that we know the ending, the beginning looks different to us. We know God is Trinity in the garden of Eden. We know He has been seeking the sons of Adam since then.

God is love. Now in light of His being love, tell me what His wrath and His hate is like? Hint: it's not the same as human hate and anger and it's definitely not the same as Satan's hate and anger.

 

So He was not love then?

I guess that is your way of saying, yes?   Why not just take read for what it says?  God is angry (as the verse clearly shows) everyday of every week of every year or as you asked 24/7?   We do have consistency here with Old and New, how can someone read the book of Revelation and conclude God destroys nations, people the earth?  Let me try this again, Can you please read me Psalm 7:11 and tell me what that verse is saying?
