Or we could say, in English, Ohio is correct. In Greek however, Ohio is wrong because there are different words for love and the meaning should be apparent.

But whether or not 1 Cor 13 refers to God's love is really not the point. The point is - can God's love be separated from God's person? I would say no because Scripture says "God is love", indicating that love is not just something God does, but something God is.
