Contrary to what you on this site believe, God loves sinners. He loves those who have wronged in his eyes. He wants nothing more than to bring those people into his Kingdom. When Jesus died on the Cross it wasn't just for a select few, it wasn't for only "True Christians". Romans 5:8
God is like a disappointed father, who loves his children even when they mess up. And as much as he loves the sinners, he loves his followers a tenfold more. Acts 10:34-35
Please consider these verses as well, John 3:16, 1 John 4:10, Proverbs 8:17.
Not only does God love sinners, he instructs us to love them as well. Luke 6:32. God says if we only love those who love us, what love to we have? We are to love everyone. Then he says that sinners love those who love them. This combined with the first part means that we are to love sinners, so they will love us and we can lead them to the Lord.
