Many people think they are not good enough to be a christian or they need to live a better life to be accepted by God. But there is nothing we can do to make ourselves acceptable to God. God has made us acceptable in Christ. Those who believe Christ died for them are in Christ.
1Jn 5:11 The testimony is this: God has given us eternal life, and this life has its source in his Son.
1Jn 5:12 Whoever has the Son has this life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.
Answer:
God doesn't say, "Come as you are." He commands us to change.
"...the Kingdom of God is at hand: REPENT ye, and believe the gospel [good news]." (Mark 1:15)
Repent:
- be sorry: to recognize the wrong in something you have done and be sorry about it
- change ways: to feel regret about a sin or past actions and change your ways or habits.
"...repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name among all nations..." (Luke 24:47).
"...let all the House of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ. Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?
"Then Peter said unto them, REPENT, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit." (Acts 2:36-38)
God doesn't say, "Come as you are and be baptized"... He says, "Change your ways," first.

Jesus said it himself in the Bible that "I and my father are one" so whatever God possess He possess. Jesus was invested by the Holy Spirit by turning His soul in the direction of God.
