Defining Unconditional love

Speak for yourself. "Unconditional love" is one of those absolutes that just doesn't exist. In your own example, you thought you loved somebody "unconditionally" but it turned out to be temporarily. The condition was, "until you screw up beyond Point X."The best you can do is come as close to absolutely unconditional as you can. Be aware of the conditions you package with your love.

Of course not.If you can't care for your children adequately, you might give up their care to somebody else who is more capable. But that doesn't apply to God.Only the lowest of the low would disown his own children because of misbehaviour.

If you have a point, feel free to make it.The part of my post that you quoted says that God is not incapable of caring for His children (nor is there anybody more capable than He is). Whether or not His children are "reprobate" is irrelevant.

Where does your quote from Romans show God disowning His reprobate children?Are you aware of the parable of the prodigal son?
