How do we know God's love is holy?

Answered in 1 source

God's love is holy because it is grounded in His perfect nature and righteousness.

God's love cannot be separated from His holiness. While many equate God’s chief attribute with love, it’s essential to recognize that His love is always in accordance with His righteousness and justice. God’s nature is fundamentally holy, and His love must reflect that holiness, meaning it will not tolerate sin. The Bible makes it clear that God does not merely overlook sin out of love; instead, His love compels Him to provide a way of salvation through the atonement of His Son, Jesus Christ. This further affirms that true understanding of God’s love requires understanding of His holiness and justice.
