The world needs Jesus to be able to fill that void that abounds in the hearts of humanity that do not have Jesus in their hearts and seek to fill it with wrong things.
In this regard, many believe that they cannot take refuge in Jesus because they do not deserve it and are sinners since they are subject to vices and some other things that take him away from God and that way they believe that Jesus would never accept them have a very controversial opinion about of the true condition of Jesus Christ
I want to say through this reflection that our heavenly father does not think or is like any of us, therefore we do not need to change before going to Jesus, because going to Jesus is what changes.

It is also important to clarify that Jesus Christ loves us all unconditionally and that he does not love like some of us either since he came to call everyone to receive salvation and most of all to sinners that I believe are all of us who were called once because we ignored his word and he called us to repentance because we were sinners and we needed to reconcile with him
Luke 5:32
I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repent. | NIV |
Jesus came to call sinners who are all creation because we were not righteous because we did not receive freedom from Jesus Christ and when we arrived in his ways we came with all kinds of sin but he was in charge of transforming us because we ourselves did not we can change in our sinful condition and we are spiritually blind
2 Corinthians 3:18
Thus, all of us, who with our bare faces reflect the glory of the Lord in a mirror, are transformed to their likeness with more and more glory by the action of the Lord, which is the Spirit.
| NIV |
The glory of God transforms our life our attitudes our heart and renews our mind. Do not worry about your spiritual condition and the lifestyle you lead come to Jesus Christ who has all the compassion and love to give you and make you a new creature.
God begins the work in a person who takes the attitude of believing him and begins to work in his heart until he transforms it into his image and likeness
Philippians 1: 6
"being convinced precisely of this: that he who began in you the good work will perfect it until the day of Jesus Christ." | NIV |

Our God is not a son of man to think like us and is compassionate with our condition he loves us beyond infinity.
Numbers 23:19
God is not a man, to lie, nor a son of man, to repent. Has He said it, and will not do it? Have you spoken and will not comply?
2 Chronicles 30: 9
The Lord your God is compassionate and merciful. If you turn to him, he will never abandon you.
| NIV |
God does not look at our imperfections to love us he loves us as we are but calls us to come to his presence and we can get his help his forgiveness and set us free
