In this episode of Serving Jesus Christ, in the message, "God's Accurate Aim", Pastor Swanson notes that "If you are a shepherd you either write off the lost sheep as an acceptable loss or you seek to find it." 

Since God's nature is love for His Creation, He seeks out the lost sheep. He does not write off any sinner as an acceptable loss.
