[It is the sinners who need the Lord more than the saints....for the upliftment of these fallen people for whom good Lord will shower his limitless mercy. - By Sreenivaas Raav]
God is needed by sinners as well as saints. The sinners must be reformed through realization only, which comes through the first part of spiritual knowledge, called as pravrutti. God gives lot of importance to this part in order to maintain the balance of society and to bring peace and harmony in it. The guidance to saints is the second part of spiritual knowledge, called as nivrutti, which is personal issue of God. Pravrutti is like the official duty of an officer and nivrutti is like his personal life related to his family. A good officer gives more importance to the official duty than personal life. Hence, the Lord said in the Gita that He is incarnating on the earth to establish justice and did not mention that He is incarnating to establish the knowledge or devotion related to saints. You will also find that most scriptures in the world concentrate on the first part only and not on the second part.
