Yes it is, because emotions only work in a temporal environment. God can't feel [infinite] love for us if there's no time to actualise such a feeling.
Ah, yes. With the clarification that the omni is optional, that makes more sense. I don't disagree that emotions require a temporal environment, just that omnibenevolence doesn't (there are more fitting emotions than love that I would attribute to Yahweh...depends on who you ask, I guess).
