"Grace" being God's love in action towards the people who deserve the opposite of love?

if there is a sin he cant forgive, then he is not onmibenevolent. if he is not all-loving, he cant be the greatest being. if there is one thing he is unable or unwilling to do, he cant be omnipotent.

Here, within these ideas and differing views, is the basis of the truth. Omnipotence, omni-benevolence, omnipresence, these terms and even there very concepts are contradictory (such as creating a weight you cannot lift denying omni-potency). There can be no proof against them until you specify to what you are claiming possesses them, and at the moment you specify 'to god' the argument becomes invalid.

While it is true that it is contradictory to apply these to anything we know of in the world we can perceive we cannot even attempt to apply it to that which is not of our reality. God is, truly, a being of chaos. Never static nor moving, always many states and one. Upon a being that is formed of and exists in chaos all these things can and may apply but never to one that exists as we might perceive or measure (without some means to alter chaos into order which would, obviously, render it into order and remove all traits of chaos).
