first condition is repentance, which means a change of mind.
Formerly I thought sin a pleasant thing, but now I have changed
my mind about it; formerly I thought the world an attractive
place, but now I know better; formerly I regarded it a miserable
business to be a Christian, but now I think differently. Once
I thought certain things delightful, now I think them vile;
once I thought other things utterly worthless, now I think them
most precious. That is a change of mind, and that is repentance."
