He loves us unconditionally when we surrender unconditionally.
In the story of the Prodigal Son, the Father restore the son’s condition with no restrictions, but only after the son returned. The Father did not go and drag the son back, he did not reserve him his place until he returned. He did sit a single condition: the son must come and repent.
Once that condition was met, then there were no other conditions.
Excellent point.
