God demonstrates his own love.

Romans 5:8 says this: "God shows his love for us in that while we were yet sinners, the Messiah died for us."

First, the 'us' there is Christians - not everyone.

But second - I've often divorced that from the following verses.

In doing so - I've forgotten that God also shows his love in that his Son didn't STAY dead. The Father rescued him from death and showed him to be the Faithful Son - and likewise he will raise us who believed and rescue us ultimately as well. What amazing love God has for us! Look to the risen Christ and rely on him for your future life with God Almighty!
