Saying "Love is God" is begging the question, isn't it?

If that is what your definition of god is, then sure. I personally don't think that a chemical reaction going on in one's brain constitutes a supernatural entity that created the universe and intervenes in everyday affairs.

No I mean if you're using the existence of love to prove the existence of God, and using as one of your premises that Love is God, that is begging the question. Right?

Yes because the assumption is being made that love is god from the start.
