To clear the confusion of God's Love and Just, which are distinct aspects of God,
I'd say, God is Love, therefore we know we were not worthy since the fall of men. Or else, we would not know how unworthy we were.
So, without the knowledge of our worth, God needs not save us, EVEN IF HE IS LOVE, for by Adam, we all have thrown away His love in the beginning, whether we admit it or not, it is in our fallen nature since Adam.
This makes God's love a sovereign one. And The salvation, particular one. Though salvation is sufficient for all, it is efficient only for the elects.
God is Just, therefore He shouldn't save.
God is Love, therefore we have the ability to hope for salvation.
By this, the Salvation in Christ Jesus alone is assured, for God is faithful.
By this, Salvation is not for those who do not hope.
