But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. (Romans 5:8)
This verse looks like God does not see anything in us. It looks like God wants us to have His amazing love. God saves us for His own Glory through His Love.
We can not earn this gift of God.
But when the kindness and the love of God our Savior toward man appeared, not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.
Once we are saved we will have good works as a evidence we are save. Our good works will not save us. They profess to know God, but in works they deny Him, being abominable, disobedient, and disqualified for every good work. (Titus 1:16)

He saw that He loved us when we didn't deserve it. When my children were misbehaving I still saw that they were my children and I loved them. Somewhat the same.

Yet the angel said to Cornelius "Your prayers and your alms have come up for a memorial before God." and for that reason he became the first Gentile to have the gospel presented to him.
Also Jesus said, "whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God." John 3:21

God calls sinners into a covenant. He calls saints into communion with Him. Those that find themselves communing with God cannot help but do the works. Its like a grain of corn that is planted in the ground. If its watered and tended to, it can't help but bring forth more corn.
He seen that Saul/Paul was a chosen vessel.

nicely truly the dominion of heaven/God isn't a place yet Jesus mentioned this is on your heart. ~ Luke 17:20 And while he exchange into demanded of the Pharisees, while the dominion of God ought to come, he spoke back them and mentioned, the dominion of God cometh no longer with commentary: ~Luke 17:21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the dominion of God is interior you. So the dominion of God is God's spirit and capability residing interior you. you somewhat get to adventure the capability of God in case you're alive in the international. that's what solidifies our faith as a results of fact we are tasting the capability of heaven now. the only way you may adventure this is thru being born lower back and being baptized with the capability of the holy spirit. it somewhat is a separate adventure than salvation purely like the apostles and disciples won. Paul additionally won this capability and he wasn't a disciple. God bless you!

God put a spirit in everyone of us. He loves that spirit, but our flesh is the battle.
