Jesus said anyone who comes to the Father must believe that He is and that He rewards those who diligently seek him. Doesn't the first part go without saying? Who would want to come to the Father if they did not believe that he is? That suggests the second part is what defines, what differentiates true believers. If one is to come to the Father one must believe if they diligently seek Him He will reward them.
Before studying calculus, one needs to qualify one's self by studying arithmetic, algebra and geometry. Otherwise, more advanced subjects won't make any sense. Wouldn't the same be true about seeking God?
Getting to know the Father requires time and commitment. He doesn't need anything nor does he want anything, but for all people to diligently seek him. What does it mean to diligently seek God?
