Jesus comes offering eternal life. The water of life that whoever drinks will never thirst again. I think the righteous and sinners share this desire.
I a story where Jesus entered a cave of lepers and healed them. Each one returned to their home, but only one came back to follow Jesus.
That's how it is with people who cleanse themselves of sin but return to the same cycle of death. It's impossible to desire eternal life while clinging to material life, because material life leads to death.
